As [documented](https://developer.gnome.org/glib/stable/glib-regex-syntax.html) dot does not match line ends by default, and in the "Internal Option Setting" section it is documented that `multiline` and `dotall` are separate options. If you set `dotall` by `(?s)qui.*?dolorem` you get two matches, though not the ones you seem to expect :)
The `\s` matches some line end characters so it will find the examples you seek. --- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread. Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/geany/geany/issues/1165#issuecomment-238069456
