Re: ant/JakartaOroRegexp multiline question

I want to finish this thread up in case other people want to find out
whether this ended up working or not.

Thank you Daniel for the help.  I ended up using the following (excluding
the quotes) in ant.

"^LOOK FOR ME//s+AND ME"

I used //s+ since the text files I am parsing could contain both "/r" and
"/n".

Again, thank you.

Daniel

I forgot to add that the the $ and ^ are redundant once you put the \n in
between them, so you should use ^LOOK FOR ME\nAND ME$ as the expression.
