I have a fasta file containing genome sequences of multiple viruses.

Example:

```
>gi_138375030_Human_papillomavirus
GAAAGTTTCAATCATACTTTATTATATTGGGAGTAAAAAAAA...

>gi_94481944_Human_herpesvirus_3
GGCCCAGCCCTCTCGCGGCCCCCTCGAGAGAGAAAAAAA...

```

I want to extract only herpes virus entries, including the actual sequence, which is (in this file) always the line folowing the description.

The folowing regex works:

```
>.*herpes.*\n.*\n

```

It selects the description and the sequence lines.

I have found similar questions but all make use of the "bookmark line" function:
[Export all regular expression matches in Textpad or Notepad++ as a list](https://superuser.com/questions/477628/export-all-regular-expression-matches-in-textpad-or-notepad-as-a-list)

However, this only bookmarks the first line of the regex output, so I am unable to use the described solutions. If I use "find all in current document", it also only lists the first lines.

All I want to do is copy the output of regex into a new file. It is especially frustrating since it finds just above a hundred entries, which is just above the margin under which I would be willing to do it manually.

I would prefer a solution in Windows OS.
