My question is simple, I want to find all commented and blank lines in my source code and delete them. I’ve tried ^(REM [\d\D]*?[\r\n])|(?<SL>\'[\d\D]*?[\r\n])$ but it does not work.
Please help.
If VS2008 supports zero-width lookaheads:
(?:\r\n[\t ]*[symbol_initiating_full_line_comment][^\r\n]*|\r\n[\t ]*)+(?=\r\n)If VS2008 does not support zero-width lookaheads:
(?:\r\n[\t ]*[symbol_initiating_full_line_comment][^\r\n]*|\r\n[\t ]*)+(\r\n)$1Answer assumes
