Multi-line regular expressions in Visual Studio Code












11














I cannot figure a way to make regular expression match stop not on end of line, but on end of file in VS Code? Is it a tool limitation or there is some kind of pattern that I am not aware of?

  • @WiktorStribiżew no, first of all it maches a single character, and with * quantifier it stops on EOL

It seems the CR is not matched with [sS]. Add r to this character class:



[sSr]+


will match any 1+ chars.
