    I think N++ offers a decently-sized choice of plugins, but as I’m not familiar with vim, maybe I’m miscalibrated. :-~

    Tweak to template due to editing error and not completely checking before posting (did I get it completely right this time? hmmmm):

    Bring up the **Find** window (ctrl+f). Bring up the **Replace** window (ctrl+h). Bring up the **Find in Files** window (ctrl+shift+f). Bring up the **Mark** window (*Search* menu > *Mark...*). **Find what** box: `` **Replace with** box: `` **Replace with** box: ***make sure this box is empty!*** **Search mode**: Normal Extended Regular expression **Backward direction**: unticked **Match whole word only**: unticked **Match case**: unticked **Wrap around**: unticked **. matches newline**: unticked **In selection**: unticked **Bookmark line**: unticked **Purge for each search**: unticked Press the **Find Next** button.

    If I am not mistaken, then all settings are stored in the config.xml file which is located in the Notepad++ directory.

    To rename multiple files, use this command syntax and press Enter:

    ren .ext1 ???-new_filename_part.

    Command syntax example:

    ren .jpg ???-hikingTrip.

    …zoom…

    But if it is really a factor for you, you could put it in a zoom-notify :

    try: zoom_notify_installed except NameError: def callback_sci_ZOOM(_): editor.setMarginWidthN(0, editor.textWidth(33, "12345678")) editor.callback(callback_sci_ZOOM, [SCINTILLANOTIFICATION.ZOOM]) zoom_notify_installed = True editor.setMarginWidthN(0, editor.textWidth(33, "12345678"))

    (for Pythonscript; I don’t know the Luascript way of doing that)

    Do you have the Notepad++ view narrow?

    I ran a quick experiment: yes, if you shrink the window width too far, you can cut off part of the “lines: ####” display.

    That’s likely the OP’s problem

  • could I change CR LF symbol and color? like eclipse style?

    Hello, @dave-dyet, @terry-r, @peterjones and All,

    Here is a 3rd possible solution :

    SEARCH (?s-i).+?(\u.+?)(?=<)|(?s).+

    REPLACE ?1\1\r\n ( OR ?1\1\n for Unix files )

    Notes :

    The remainder of text, near the very end of file, is just wiped out. Indeed, when the second alternative (?s).+ is used, the group 1 does not exist. So, no replacement is done, because of the conditional replacement ?1....

    I used the \u syntax which matches, when sensitive search is processed, any uppercase letter of any occidental Unicode script ( Latin, Greek, Cyrillic,… ). It’s probably useless, as in English/American language, no country begins with an accentuated character, anyway ! However, regarding this specific case, writing (?-i)\u is as easy as writing (?-i)[A-Z] ! Refer to the list of sovereign states, below :

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sovereign_states

    And we get the text, below :

    Africa Angola Argentina Armenia Asia Australia Australia > New South Wales Australia > Northern Territory

    Peter, from your solutiion, I built a new version, which can do all the job, in one go ;-)) So, here is the 4th version :

    SEARCH (?-s)<.+?>|^\h*\R?|(.+?)(?=<)

    REPLACE ?1\1\r\n ( OR ?1\1\n for Unix files )

    Notes :

    This regex allows the pertinent items to begin with an lowercase letter, either !

    If group 1 does not exist, then the <.....> blocks OR possible leading blank chars, followed with a possible line-break, are deleted

    If group1 does exist, then the different items of the drop-down list, are listed, as usual, one per line

    Best Regards,

    guy038

    Even if @Ekopalypse 's suggestions work for you, it seems like having a script to break up the file into year-size-chunks would be a sensible thing to do. I have no idea what the format for your file is, but I would think you could parse it with a Python script or something and break it into more manageable size pieces.

    I can speak only for myself but I’m absolutely lost - I don’t understand what you are trying to do. Maybe you wanna post in your native language and with English translated text in the hope that one is out there who is able to understand what you are trying to achieve.
    If you can provide a screenshot, which can be embedded using this syntax ![](URL_OF_YOUR_UPLOADED_IMAGE), it might be useful as well.
