That thread suggested Workspaces and Projects (WAP). It chews up at least as much horizontal screen space and a bunch more vertical screen space than my suggestion, but I can make WAP work for me. Thank you!

ok, it’s working, I cannot remember what I was doing wrong, thanks for the answers

And we propagate the confusion… :-D

@PJ-Scardino which lexer is active (Language menu)? Because from code it looks like only these three types are allowed. if (type != L_JS && type != L_HTML && type != L_CSS) { Cheers Claudia

Maybe it is possible by writing a little python script which checks on application shutdown if files, which are modified and have been saved already, exists. Maybe - because I didn’t try it so I’m not sure if the script can really do it. Let us know if you want to go this way. Cheers Claudia

@Bernard-Schleich said: (?s)(?:.?<row){99})(.?<row) Try this regular expression: (?s)(?:.*?<row){99}.*?\K<row The key part is the \K syntax. It tells the regular expression engine to match but don’t include in the resultant match anything that comes before it. Thus, in the example above, only your desired <row text will be highlighted (i.e., selected) by Notepad++ after you do a Find.

Hello, Ok, thanks. JM

@Jaapyse_banana hello and welcome to the notepad++ community. if you want to add it automatically: download and install version 7.3.3: https://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/v7.3.3.html and then download and upgrade it with the latest version: https://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/v7.5.1.html if you want to add the plugin manager manually to your fresh 7.5.1 install: you can download it here: https://github.com/bruderstein/nppPluginManager/releases (uni for 32bit and x64 for x64bit installations) and copy the extracted files to your notepad++ plugins and updater folder. the plugin manager project isn’t automatically included anymore, because many npp users didn’t like the sponsored commercials in the latest versions of plugins manager. it is still easy to add it by copying PluginManager.dll into the plugins folder, it remains a downloadable extra option but it isn’t a forced default installation for all notepad++ users anymore.

@Eduardo-Flores-Rivas Menu “Settings”, “Preferences”, then from the list on the left select “General”, and in the right side you will see all the “Tab Bar” options. Just check the box labeled “Vertical”.

Thank you Peter! That is exactly right and the screen shots show it perfect. And thank you NippueDeLagash for your support as well.

@DrSAMKUTTY-PATTOMKARY notepad++ is a native windows program, so you need wineskin (easiest way) to run it on your mac http://wineskin.urgesoftware.com/tiki-index.php?page=Downloads wineskin with notepad++ is well documented (google it) and many people use it on their macs once you,ve worked out the basic principles of wineskin (wine) and got it starting, post here for your desired tweaks regarding notepad++ on mac

That works! Thanks! Scanned through the list of plug-ins and didn’t realize that Explorer had that option.
