For this specific instance, debug continued in chat (because of privacy issues).

But if you are a reader in the future, who is encountering the same thing:

The link you are provided in the confirmation email is a one-time link. So if you follow the link twice, or if you accidentally hit “reload” in your browser, or if your browser for whatever reason requests the page twice (view source, reload, network confusion, …) then the second time will give a “Not Found” error. It may be that you never saw the first successful load, even though it was successful behind-the-scenes.

The proposed feature of filtering the shortcut mapper has been added to Notepad++ via this commit.

See this issue in the user manual repo for some examples of how the new functionality will work.

Hello, @李唯任 and All,

Not difficult with regular expressions !

Do a normal selection of your first text part to modify

Open the Replace dialog ( Ctrl + H )

Untick all box options

Tick the Wrap around box option

Select the Regular expression search mode

Enter (?-s)(?:.+(\R))+.+ in the Find what: zone

Enter {\1$0\1}, in the Replace with: zone

FIRST possibility :

Tick the In selection box option

Click on the Replace All button

SECOND possibility :

Do not tick the In selection box option

Click on the Find Next button

Click on the Replace button if the present selection must be replaced (A)

Click again on the Find Next button, if the present selection must stay unchanged

Return to line (A)

And so on…

=> the FIRST possibility just produce one global replacement on your selection whereas the SECOND possibility allows you to choose the zones of text to modify or not !

Notes :

First, the in-line modifier ( (?-s) ) means that the regex character . represents a unique standard char only ( not EOL )

Then the (?:.+(\R))+ part represents a bunch of, at least, 1 complete line(s), surrounded by a non-capturing group ( (?:.......) ), each with :

1 or more standard characters

Any kind of End of Line ( \R ), so \r\n or \n or \r, stored as the group 1 , which will be re-used in replacement

Finally the .+ part match a LAST non-empty line ( Thus, the case if your last section is at the very end of file, without any EOL, will be matched, too )

In replacement, we simply write the { character first, followed with an EOL character ( the group \1 ), followed with the whole regex ( $0 ) and, again, followed with a second EOL character and, finally, the } character

@Coises
Thank you soo much! Works perfectly now.

The two solutions given here solved my issue. Thank you so much to the contributors!!

Hello, @michelle-pace,

You may also be interested by this Python script, built up with the @alan-kilborn’s collaboration and some other Python gurus !

On the last line of this Summary report, it will give you, at the same time, the number of characters, words and bytes of all your selected text, in one or several ranges, of the current file, whatever the view used !

https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/topic/20218/emulation-of-the-view-summary-feature-with-a-python-script/14

Of course, if you select all the file contents, the results, reported in the last SELECTION(S) line, should be identical to the 3 lines just above :
Total chars, Words count and Buffer length

BTW, note, that I added the mention (Caution !) in the Words line, because the word notion is quite odd in many languages ! Refer to this post :

https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/topic/20218/emulation-of-the-view-summary-feature-with-a-python-script/3

If needed, you may even change the default definition of a word character, as explained at the beginning of the post !

Best Regards,

guy038

Yes, that’s what I need! Thanks for the help!

@CodeBiene said in Perl folding fails on comment with right curley brace "#}":

So it has nothing to do with the fact that there are several consecutive comment lines.

I agree that It is something that has not been mentioned yet.

The hexadecimal 3FF displayed in the margin is negative folding caused by unbalanced braces.

perl_fold4.gif

2 frames alternate every 4 seconds displaying the default lexer property value of

fold.perl.comment.explicit=1

and the changed value of

fold.perl.comment.explicit=0

Comment explicit enabled for the lexer is usually the leading comment character(s) followed with a brace. Perl comment explicit is #{ as a open fold and #} as a close fold.

Notice the line with #} { shows fold flags of 402 401 which means it is closing a fold. The next frame with that same line shows fold flags as 402 402 which means that there is no change in the folding state.

The Ctrl+Q key sequence changes } { to # } { which is not recognized as a fold by comment explicit as to the space after the # symbol.

PythonScript can be used to disable the comment explicit option which is enabled with the value of 1 by default:

editor.setProperty('fold.perl.comment.explicit', 0)

This setting will not survive changing buffers so may need a callback to be setup.

@Alan-Kilborn ,
Thanks to you, (grumble :) ) I’ve started checking out the YT videos by Chris Amit to check out some of the other things NPP and Plugins do that I’ve not been using and already have enabled 3 more plugins. ::sigh:: Ignorance was bliss, now that I’ve eaten the apple, like Adam, I’m screwed. :)

@Prahlad-Makwana4145 thanks

@mattesh ,

I’ll put it there little later

I actually already pointed it out to Don here, and he has tagged wingup 5.2.8. He has incorporated that new wingup into Notepad++ v8.6.3-RC2

seems that this fix might even not be enough for some use cases

If you find a use case that isn’t covered by wingup 5.2.8, you will have to create a new wingup issue. A fix for a new issue (likely) won’t make it into the final Notepad++ v8.6.3 release, but it should make it eventually (assuming he is able to come up with a fix).

@big_guitar
If you’re using JsonTools 4.4, you should upgrade to v6.1.1 or v7 even if it’s not responsible for your problem (and I seriously doubt it is).

@PeterJones
OK. I get the picture now. Although notepad++ has many features - great editing and the ability to run external programs - it lacks the ability to handle projects properly.

The ability to have $(CURRENT_PROJECT_FILE) and $(CURRENT_PROJECT_NAME) is all it would take.

Although notepad++ is my editor of choice I will just have to ‘bite the bullet’ and carry on as I currently do. I manually create a file containing the file list and compile that.

I can currently do what I require by creating the panel information file in my data directory with the extension npp then looking for this file in the current addressed directory. Only one project/directory allowed.

@guy038 said in Improved version of the "Summary" feature, ...:

what do you think of ?

I wouldn’t bother trying to rename things at this point.
It’s no problem simply because I was confused (that’s MY problem). :-)
Carry on… :-)

@SoCu said in Full line selection and keyboard shortcut:

you can see that with each update you have to reconfigure everything that has been changed, I think this would not have to be changing with each update.

No, that’s not true.
However, if the author of Notepad++ “adjusts” keycombos for a new release (there’s been some mumbo jumbo with Ctrl+c lately), then you might have to.

Fixed in https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/commit/76cfc5945ecf1bebabb52a032572ec7f6b7b6029

@Somnath-Shinde Please follow the debug steps outlined by @PeterJones at https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/topic/21450/windows-11/11

@PeterJones Legit, you the man.

There were many styles I was missing so I’ve updated my styles.xml with them all now.

Thanks.
