Hello,

   I was looking for a multi line string search for a specific pattern,
Following is an example :
local str="this is sample text with lots of symbols [test]<test>*test* and it's multiline too [10,000 words]" 
   local pattern=<test>



Use str:find("<test>", 1, true) for plain string search.
