gsub global operator

[fugee ohu]

Does gsub have a global operator? How do I gsub in cases where there are multiple  lines that need to be treated as a single string?

What is the difference between sub() and gsub()?

https://docs.ruby-lang.org/en/2.3.0/String.html#method-i-sub
https://docs.ruby-lang.org/en/2.3.0/String.html#method-i-gsub

What makes you think that gsub needs any special hint to treat a multi-line string as a source of multiple matches? Show your work.

I decided I don't want to gsub anything out but instead save a match to a variable That would be a different topic than gsub so should I start a new thread?
