Re: [cl-ppcre-devel] empty line matches with cl-ppcre

Should be fixed now. Please try.

...

CL-USER> (cl-ppcre:regex-replace-all (cl-ppcre:create-scanner "^$" :multi-line-mode t) *str* "!")

Thank you -- indeed, it is fixed. It now produces:

JWR-TEST> (cl-ppcre:regex-replace-all (cl-ppcre:create-scanner "(?m)^$") *str* "!")

"1 2 3 ! 4 !"

I guess it is debatable whether the last "!" should be there. Perl doesn't behave that way, but I guess it _is_ an empty line, now that I think of it. And I wanted to get "!" instead of empty lines. So it actually makes more sense than Perl.

It's shorter to write

(cl-ppcre:regex-replace-all "(?m)^$" *str* "!")

instead. This will also allow the compiler macro to compile the regex at load time.

Nice, thanks!
