Hi Uwe,

I am trying to implement regex search in file the same as in editors, in 
Notepad++ for example.

Thanks,
Ira

Hi,

you need to create your own tokenizer that splits tokens on \n or \r. Instead 
of using WhitespaceTokenizer, you can use:

Tokenizer tok = CharTokenizer. fromSeparatorCharPredicate(ch -> ch=='\r' || 
ch=='\n');

But I would first think of how to implement the whole thing correctly. Using a 
regular expression as "default" query is slow and does not look correct. What 
are you trying to do?

Uwe
