Advanced search options

[LTT]

1:
Additional Lines to Search for Regular Expressions:
** Have to relaunch EmEditor to make the change effective.

2:
Open “Find in Files” (or Find box).
Open “Advanced” there.
Change these 4 settings:
Match Only Embedded Newlines in CSV
Treat CR and LF Separately
Regular Expressions “.” Can Match Newline Characters
Regular Expression Engine
OK.
Open “Advanced” in Find toolbar.
** The settings are not synced yet.
And vice versa.

3:
Since “Treat CR and LF Separately” option is added, this page needs a revision:
http://www.emeditor.org/en/howto_search_search_nl.html

4:
Enable “Treat CR and LF Separately”.
Open Find box and enable Multiline.
Input two or more lines.
** Cannot find it with either of the three options:
(None)
Regular Expressions
Escape Sequence

Because \r is not added automatically.
I think it should be optimized somehow.

1. will be fixed on v18.9.91. Thank you!

▲ Searches like this won’t work, unless “Additional Lines to Search for Regular Expressions” is not 0.

But I don’t think such searches should depend on this setting.
