Multi line search search and replace

[stefanpausch]

I have moved from Textmate to Sublime Text 2 and i am totally in love with the editor, but one thing what bugs me is the missing (?) multi line search option.

In Textmate i can open the “search and replace”-dialog by pressing CMD+F. Besides the “replace” input field is a black down arrow. If i click this button the single line input fields for “find” and “replace” change to an textarea where i can f.e. search for line breaks (easily).

I know i can search & replace line breaks with regex, but i would love to see a multiline textarea search & replace field.

You can enter newlines on OSX using Ctrl+Enter: if you’d like to see more than one line at once, you can resize the panel by dragging on its top border.
