Regex doesn't work correctly

[Schmarotzer]

for example:
text file:
asdasd asdasd

Search with regex: ^[A-Za-z]

will find 6 results, but must be only one

Thanks for the report!

Looks like it is treating the "start" of the next search location as the "start" of a line (^).

@dail8859 It seems there is a bug in Scintilla implementation of regexp. I want to include PCRE2 in project (and lua bindings for it) as best implementation and because QRegExp is weaker.

[dail8859]

@SimLV Agree that something better needs to be done with the regex engine.

See #500 (comment) for a more indepth discussion.

I think this could be closed in favor of #500

[dail8859]

Agreed.
