Documentation for $ in pattern
Nico Weber
^ is documented as:
^ At beginning of pattern or after "\|", "\(", "\%(" or "\n": matches
start-of-line; at other positions, matches literal '^'. |/zero-width|
$ on the other hand is documented as:
$ At end of pattern or in front of "\|" or "\)" ("|" or ")" after "\v"):
matches end-of-line <EOL>; at other positions, matches literal '$'.
I'm having the impression that $ in front of "\n" and "\%(" matches
<EOL> as well. Must the documentation be updated?

Yes, "$" also means EOL before "\n". I'll fix the docs.

ARTHUR: Charge!
[They all charge with swords drawn towards the RABBIT. A tremendous twenty
second fight with Peckinpahish shots and borrowing heavily also on the
Kung Fu and karate-type films ensues, in which some four KNIGHTS are
comprehensively killed.]
