Question

Ripgrep supports multi-line patterns -> update Readme.md

The readme file recommends to use "ag" as the searcher if the support for multline signatures is needed.

Since rg now supports multiline pattterns this recommendation should be removed/updated.

Thx for this quick update. I'm not sure but I think that we also have to adapt the source code of dumb-jump, since multiline support in ripgrep is enabled with the -U cmd line flag.

I think you're right. I am opening this until I get a chance to make and test this change. This should also allow us to support more rules.
