Color syntax formatting: multilines regex?
« on: October 07, 2019, 12:00:32 »
Hi,

I'm trying to match
Code: [Select]
/\*.*\*/ for multilines comments in C/C++ code but it works only for /* ... */ on one line.

Am I missing something or it is a limitation in the engine?

Regards,

AlanJB

AFAIK, MCs RegEx engine does not support multiline searching.
