This is about Scintilla Feature Request 730168: "Multiline regular expressions":
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=730168&group_id=2439&atid=352439

The feature request is few years old, but I was not able to find and replace line changes with Scite so I assume this isn't yet fixed in Scintilla? ( I searched for \n and used regular expression flag and got no results. ).

I noticed that currently the search seems to work by searching line by line, instead of whole buffer from start to end. Is there a good reason for this, or did I misunderstand the code? Bottom line is, if I would like to add support for multiline searches, is the task perhaps too big for a person who is not familiar with Scintilla code (but knows C++) or is there some internal thing or general problem that is not allowing people to fix it?
