USMT2.UNC

Isn’t this a User State Migration file? It’s one that Windows creates when you are migrating from one PC to a new one. It will eventually restore the content of that file on a new system. Don’t try to open it with Notepad++ or you will likely destroy any ability to get back the data. This file is created by the USMT see:

Only this program can recreate the content within back into their respective files.

XML Tools plugin

It worked, thank you very much

@Terry-R said in merge specific lines:

Find What:\R(?=\d)

Sorry there was a typo.

It should be \R(?!\d)
So looking for a line following that does NOT have a number at the start.

Apologies

Terry

@s-p5

Just to make sure this was not overlooked, you can use multiple characters in a delimiter if desired.

Hello, @alan-kilborn, @peterjones and All,

Could you please give some examples of how that expression would help here?

It’s a bot.
So I’m guessing probably not.

@Long-Chang said in Display Descriptions of A Selected Keyword:

Integer -32,768 to 32,767

Are you looking for something like this

88b12277-2915-4d05-b1ef-b363d59efce0-image.png

from Npp import editor, SCINTILLANOTIFICATION, UPDATE suggestion_dict = {'int': 'Integer -32,768 to 32,767'} def on_select(args): if args['updated'] & UPDATE.SELECTION: x = suggestion_dict.get(editor.getCurrentWord(), None) if x: editor.callTipShow(editor.getCurrentPos(), x) # editor.clearCallbacks([ SCINTILLANOTIFICATION.UPDATEUI ]) editor.callbackSync(on_select, [ SCINTILLANOTIFICATION.UPDATEUI ])

Needs the pythonscript plugin to be installed.

@Sergio-Vidal ,

If you had checked the FAQ section, you would have seen a topic called FAQ Desk: Feature Request or Bug Report which explains that this Forum is not an official feature request site.

If you follow the instructions in that FAQ entry, you can search the existing official feature requests, and you will probably find that there is one or more open request to implement sticky files. If you don’t find such a request, try rephrasing (they might not call it “sticky” but “favorite” or other such wording); but if you really don’t find it already there, you could ask for it in the official issues page.

Either way, be warned that the developers are not likely to implement a feature that has many workarounds – and being able to get the desired functionality with shortcuts, projects, sessions, or an existing plugin is likely enough workarounds that it won’t be implemented in the core project.

@Terry-R thanks that worked!

@litos81 Facepalm moment. Thank you!

@Alan-Kilborn said in Download default should be 64-bit, not 32-bit.:

Notepad++ prides itself on being compatible with “old stuff”. :-)

Fair point.

@Alan-Kilborn Thanks a lot. Solved my problem too.

i made issue report here : https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/9091

@prahladmifour said in Any way to have a fixed number of characters per line?:

I hope this information will be useful to you.

I think there’s a new bot in town.
Reference: I hope this information will be useful to you.

Hi Peter,
Ok, I will read the rules and recommendation of submission UDL this weekend…
Thank you

@Nathan-Legg

Yes, goto settings->shortcut mapper->main menu->close and remap the shortcut.

PLUS…

It is usually better for some bug/feature discussion to go on here (this site) first, IMO.

A lot of things that users consider bugs are merely a lack of understanding.

Developers probably won’t want to take the time to do what we do here.

Of course, devs could just develop some boilerplate: Please ask this on the Community site

Picturing some “bug reports”:

I have this data where I want to remove commas but only when they occur after a number…

Really thank you litos81 :3 :3

ps: you can close my topic

@David-Shaked ,

If there were truly a bug, then it wouldn’t go here for the official reporting and tracking; there is a FAQ which explains where bug reports go if you want them officially noticed and tracked.

However, it is best to come here and confirm first, which is what you did, so ++@David-Shaked

In this case, it’s not a bug, at least from the way I understood your description.

When you edit any Notepad++ config file (including the autocompletion files), there is a sequence defined in the user manual (https://npp-user-manual.org/docs/config-files/#editing-configuration-files) as the only reliable sequence to get the changes to take effect. If you follow any other sequence, you might get surprising results, or your changes might get overwritten.
