Getting Data In

transforms on mult-line events

Hi,

Does transforms recognize multi-line events? If I have a multi-line event, and I want to filter out based upon some text in it, is that possible? Or does it look at each line individually?

Sure, working with multilines is no biggie. Remember to use (?s) and (?m) flags appropriately to influence the matching behavior of ., ^, and $ according to your needs.

Any specific examples?
