I was looking at this question on stackoverflow and it seems regex can
select across multiple lines generally but how would I do so for
highlight-regexp in emacs?
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/159118/how-do-i-match-any-character-across-multiple-lines-in-a-regular-expression
Eg I want to highlight ALL text from aPDU... to the final closing brace:
aPDU-rose : retResult : {
invokeID 2,
operValue {
operationValue local : 71,
result {
crossRefIdentifier '40 3f'H
}
}
}
How would I do that using highlight-regexp?
highlight-regexp aPDU-rose.* hi-yellow would get me the first line - but
how to get everything including last } character?
