Well, I have just tested this with vim64 for win32. As I have expected,
command sequences like
:%s/aaa\nbbb/ccc\nddd/
successfully match and replace any occurences of the
"aaa<line break>bbb" string.
Note that the example above works both with Windows and Unix text files,
i. e. the exact meaning of "\n" depends from the line break style
used in the current document.
