    Hello Rob,
    I have thought about it for a while now but didn’t find
    a solution which would be better than recording a macro.
    But, of course, this would mean, that you need to record
    each of your regexes and save it with a meaningful name.
    And it is always the same regex called, no variation allowed.
    The closest other solution I can think of is to modify the

    nbMaxFindHistoryFind ="10"

    parameter to something like

    nbMaxFindHistoryFind ="1000"

    so it takes longer before it gets deleted but of course
    it doesn’t make it more user friendly if you get a list of hundreds of regexes.

    UPDATE: now that I have posted this - I think of something different - I will check and come back on this again.

    Cheers
    Claudia

    Hello Christopher-Wood,

    this bug has been already addressed here.
    But it seems that it doesn’t have the highest priority.

    @Baksa-Péter

    again cheating is required and it isn’t 100%.
    Define the numbers as keywords (prefix mode) and use nesting
    but this would mean, that e.g. 5t is also colored.

    @Baksa-Péter

    there is a way but this means you need to cheat and add additional code (comment) to it.
    Define the normal if (open) else(middle) endif(close)

    everything should work for this example

    if x then y else z endif

    and add //end as the close in comment folding.
    It’s assumed that // is the comment sign in your language.
    Now this line

    if x then y else z //end

    doesn’t get folded. A bit a hack but works.

    Cheers

    @Baksa-Péter

    can be achieved by using the special operator (( )).
    From the document

    So, if two or more strings are defined inside of a special operator (( )), they are interchangeable.

    so a open like (( ( [ )) and a closing like (( ) ] )) sholud do the trick

    @Steven-Nicholls

    As already recommended, it is a good idea to start with a guided
    tutorial if you want to learn a new programming language.

    To answer your question,

    Is there someone that can help me understand this? does “content-type” mean this is where I >place whatever I want to say?

    No, you set a meta attribute, which is basically the information for your browser
    that this site has utf-8 encoded text.

    I pasted it into Notepad and tried to view it as source, but nothing happened!

    The line itself, although it is incomplete, is the source.
    If you do plain html coding I recommend installing the html preview plugin,
    can be done via plugin manager, which, as the name suggests, gives you a preview of your code. So you see what changes on the “site” when changing code instantly(more or less).
    Simple example. After installing the plugin, goto plugins->Preview HTML and select Preview HTML. Open a new document, select HTML as language and put the following text into it.

    <HTML> <head> <title>first html site</title> </head> <body> show something </body> </HTML>

    Cheers

    It might be also that this is one of the false positives.
    From what I see all components are open source, so in case
    you are uncomfortable with the prebuild binaries you could
    build it by yourself.

    @guy038

    thank you very much for the hard work, I really appreciate it.
    Encoding is one of those points which I don’t really understand fully.
    Now I have a reference how it is solved and used in npp.

    Thx

    Hello Yannick-Molinet,

    yes, go to Settings->Shortcut Mapper
    double click on Reload from Disk and choose one.
    Preferrable one which isn’t used yet. ;-)

    Hello Vasile-Caraus,
    I had a brief look and I think most, maybe all, can be done using regular expressions.
    Do you want to avoid digging deeper into the regex monster? ;-)

    Hello Daniel-Grint,

    if you click on Language->User defined…
    the dialog appears. Here you can set your preferences as you wish.
    I think the solution to your reported issue is to put the folding keywords from
    first to second style box.

    Cheers

    Thanks Scott, for the newline tip.

    Guy, I wanted to credit you for the search code in my original post but all I had here was the bare code in a .txt file, w/out any links to its origin, and it didn’t include the trailing |\z.

    Glad you got me straightened out, and I really appreciate the code bit explanations you took the trouble to provide in your reply to Shayne Z in October.

    Thank you very much for clarification.
    Unfortunattely this means I need to be more careful
    about the topic “what needs to be done by scintilla” and
    what not. ;-)

    Is there any place we can ask for some changes?

    Either here or there is an actual issue tracker on GitHub.

    I would like to know if developers think to add features or if the “future” is just adding plugins.

    Nobody is opposed to adding features as long as the majority of users will actually use it. It is very easy for a program to get bloated by tons of features only a few people will use. That’s why using a standalone plugin is nice because users can pick and choose what functionality they want. Also, the Notepad++ project does not add new features to Scintilla, it is just used as is. So if Scintilla doesn’t support a certain feature then Notepad++ won’t implement it.

    I was searching for a way to copy/paste entire row when nothing is selected (I think is a Scintilla feature) and I found a plugin.

    I also use a plugin to do this. It is not enabled by default within Notepad++.

    But there are jBASIC and PBASIC. Are they so different? Maybe you only need
    to delete/add some keywords and ASCII BASIC is done?
