Limited RegEx Find and Replace Support: No multi-line matches

Markdown Monster uses an editor component called ACE Editor for its main editor. The editor is powerful and has a ton of core and advanced features.

Unfortunately, one feature that is missing is multi-line RegEx Find support. While the editor has support for RegEx searching, it can only find per line RegEx Matches. 'Lines' in this context are any text delineated by a linebreaks meaning it can be long paragraphs. The determining factor for a line are the terminating \n or \r\n characters.

This means there no support for cross line group matches or matching of \n or \r characters.
