CTRL+F search for "xx *anything* xx"


I am trying to find and replace all for loops in my (js) code with slightly different syntax. I want to find every for loop that used the syntax "for ( any code here ){". Is there a way to find all such instances?


Solution

  • That's a regular expression question I think. In SublimeText2 start the search functionality. Make sure regular expressions are on (first button, labeled .*) and the search for for\s*\(.*?\)\s*\{.
