I have been using cl-ppcre for quite some time - great program library,
thx! - but I am now looking to match multi-line data, and Iøm having
some difficulties...
I would expect
(scan
(create-scanner ".+" :multi-line-mode t)
(concatenate 'string '(#\a #\Newline #\b)))
to match all three characters, but it matches only #\a. I downloaded
cl-ppcre from CVS just now to check that this occurs in the most recent
version; I'm using Lispworks 4.3.6. CMUCL 18d seems to behave the same way.
Can I make :everything (".") match multiple lines of input, and if so, how?
Any help much appreciated.
best,
-Klaus.
