[jed-users] pcre_matches - shouldn't PCRE_DOTALL match newlines?

[Morten Bo Johansen <mbj@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

If I have a multiline string, str = "abc\nabc", and do

  str = pcre_matches(".*", str; PCRE_DOTALL);
  
I would expect "str[0]" to be the same "abc\nabc", but I only
get "abc".

This also happens without PCRE_DOTALL, so it doesn't seem to
have any effect. Is my syntax wrong?

How do I match all characters in a whole string across lines
with pcre_matches()?

Thanks,
Morten
