PRE-FORM of an anchored matcher allows for extending the match region
beyond the end of the current line (which is the default limit). Is
there any reason why that limit can't be changed to a position before
the end of line? What would be a good workaround? Narrowing the buffer
in PRE-FORM, widening in POST-FORM?
Thanks,
Marcus

No there is no reason, which is why it is not the case that "that limit
can't be changed to a position before the end of line".

Ah, never mind. I was staring at the screen for way too long. Sorry for
the noise.
Thanks,
