Hi there.
I am having issue that vscode doesn't replace using regex properly if matched line is over the 999.
Also only first line is replaced even if I pressed "Replace All"

  • VSCode Version: 1.14.2
  • OS Version: Windows8

Steps to Reproduce:

1.create random lines more than 999. in my case I have 6567 lines I want to replace.
2.replace using Regex. my case is that I tried to add ",'" all lines. target "^" , replace ",'"
3. then Press "Replace All".

That happens is only first line is replaced .

then keep press "Replace All" then....

This issue does exist, Sublime Text 3 works fine on this. I have a workaround:
ctrl+F with regex ^.{1,}$ then Alt+Enter to select all the matches, then press Home key making cursor stop at the begin of each line, then input ,'. done!

Happens to me too. But doesn't require regex? Normal replacement may fail in a similar way.
