I really, REALLY wish textpad had an option to enable multi-line regex's or at least allow the . to match linebreaks.
I know in coldfusion there's a modifier you put in the regex to enable multi-line support - /(?m)some.*regex/ - where (?m) enables the multiline for that regex.
I don't know if that's some sort of standard, or just how Adobe (actually Allaire back in the day) decided to implement, but no multiline is a SERIOUS shortcoming.
