I'm using Wing IDE.

I'm trying to do a mini-search with a negative lookahead (?!x) and it doesn't work. It'll be cool if both positive and negative lookaheads will work in mini-search, and lookbehinds too.

While I haven't looked at Wing IDE's code, I'd be surprised if it uses Scintilla's built in and limited regex for this purpose. You should ask the Wing developers about this.
