Search and replace text lines at same time possible?

Melanie Niedfeld

Hello,

it is possible to search and replace several lines in notepad++ with another text at the same time?
With the normal search and replace function you can only replace 1 line. But
i want replace several lines with other text at the same time.

Example original text file:

COMMENT 1

BEGIN
Here ist beautiful text
And sometimes i need sleep
END

COMMENT 2

BEGIN
Here ist beautiful text
And sometimes i need sleep
END

I want replace
Here ist beautiful text
And sometimes i need sleep

with the text:
Car
House

The new text file would be:

COMMENT 1

BEGIN
Car
House
END

COMMENT 2

BEGIN
Car
House
END

Regards

It is possible by activating extended search mode and using escape sequences for line breaks (CrLf):
