I must be misunderstanding how {1}? works.
I have documents that contain three instances of lines starting with "time : "
With these documents, I need to do two things:
1) eliminate from the first instance of ^(time : ) up to but not including the
second instance; and
2) eliminate the third instance of ^(time : ) and everything after it up to but
not including the line starting with "startTime : "
I would expect (^time : (?s).*) to match the entire document and it does.
So where do I place the {1}? to limit the find to the second, not third
instance of ^time : ?
Using "(^(time : ){1}?(?s).*)^time" selects up to the third ^time.
