Answer 2

/x(.*?)y/g where x is the beginning token and y the ending token.

This RegEx means: match anything (.), any number of times (*), as few times as possible (?).

A direct example from your question would be:

/\[begin-match\](.*?)\[end-match\]/g

The sample text is now in the first capturing group.
