Regex replacement over several lines

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi,
it would be useful to add support to regex-replace several lines in a file.
Now its only possible to replace on one line.

Example text in file:

<!--removedByBuildStart-->
 This is text I want to replace....
<!--removedByBuildEnd-->

And with a regex like this to replace all these lines:
<token>(?m)&lt;!--removedByBuildStart(.|\s)*?removedByBuildEnd--&gt;</token>

Thanks for a great plugin!

Completed in 1.0.3
I have also made the value parameter not required, so you can replace tokens 
with no
value (blank) if you want, effectively removing all tokens.

Let me know if you have any problems.
P.S. Sorry this took so long to complete.
