hello,

I need to create regular expression pattern that matches 2 differnt lines separated by new line in notepad, as follows:

merge point angle reached maximum
angle = 45

I tried to use \n in order to create this match, as follows:

"merge point angle reached maximum\nangle = 45"

however the match failed,

What is the correct way to create this match?

Thanks
eyalco

Unix uses \n to terminate lines windows however uses \r\n (Carriage Return and Line Feed) to terminate lines. So i think you need to match both.

Hi dparsons

Thank you very match :) :) (much)

I succeded to create this match thanks to you,
It's strange that in each regular expressions reference i looked, there was no comment about the a difference between unix and windows in this matter. I indeed use windows. \r\n works fine.

Thanks again
eyalco

Your welcome Im glad it worked out for you.
