How can I aktivate the flag Multiline in Regex
For example I search for
(.){40,}
(.){120,}
I wanted to search for some characters in the first line and remaining characters of the next line.

m, multi-line strings
I tried without luck:
(.){40,}/m
m)(.){40,}

for this case, multiline modifier is not needed.
working regex:
.{4,}\n.{8,}
to set multiline modifier:
(?m)text_here

Thank you, this works great!
(?ms)BlockStart.{40,40}
It selects 40 bytes after BlockStart, anyway if new line or not
asgasgasgw fasfggasfgaag
BlockStart asgdfasggafsdgadsfg
aaaasfgaafdsgasfg
afbaadsf afdsgadsfg BlockEnd afsbgafsdgasfg
aaaaaafrgasfgaadsfgg

Here the modifier 'm' is not needed either:
(?s)BlockStart.{40,40}
(?m) is needed when you use meta-chars ^ and $.
