Feedback / Submit an idea don't Work (Page not found) || Multiline Regular Expression Search

Question

Hello,
I reached for some months an idea with a (multiline edeting, regexp search).
Nice to see this has already been integrated, making me but disappointing is the regex search, in combination with the Multiline Edeting.
But what it brings me to use the regexp search, when I cant edit all hits.
In this feature, I would like to point again.
But unfortunately I cant find the feedback system, and here in the forum I always get the error message, page not found.
Beautiful would be if both would be patched;)
For me, the code is currently the "http://www.sublimetext.com/" editor of my choice if Adobe would therefore produce some its functions, edge code would be a real alternative.
Yet I find Edge Code is not ready for Daily-use.
Greetings

Hi Dirk,
Thanks for reporting the broken links -- we'll look into that.  As Randy said, you're welcome to just post suggestions & issues here in the forum, though.
Regarding multiline regexp search: that is possible in Edge Code, with some limitations:
To search multiple files, use the Find in Files command, and then use any regexp containing "\n" -- it will match the newlines correctly.
To search a single file, right-click the file and chose "Find In..." (it will behave like Find in Files, but limited to that one file)
Caveat: you can't use the multiline $/^ anchors in your regexp
Caveat: there's no workaround for using the Replace command with multiline regexps
The latest Brackets release 0.41 fixes both the caveats listed above -- though you'll still have to use the "Find In..." workaround (or "Replace In..." for Replace).  We eventually plan to further improve this -- you can watch the full multiline search/replace item on our feature backlog for updates.
Hope that helps,
- Peter
