    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. ;-)

    Cheers

    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++.

    Is it possible to use toolbarIcons.xml with plugin functions?

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

    Dail,

    Thanks for your help - I guess the final question is, can a plugin transfer a file to another running NPP instance?

    Another solution would be a new command line option to stop that instance receiving additional files in this way.

    I mean, the compare plugin is really useful, and it is nice to use it from within NPP rather than using a different tool. However it is easy to get in a tangle if you use it in conjunction with other editing tasks.

    I see this issue has been already addressed.
    Let’s see which decision will be made but I agree that, from my point of view, this is an unexpected behavior.
    In addition I don’t see a case in which one needs an open but never a closing bracket, although it might be possible.

    Hi Claudia,

    I think, you’re right, that this is a feature request. I will do that.
    And
    Thx for the hint with the RegEx Helper! I did not know that.

    @Cees Yes, that works. Why it didn’t come to my mind - ? :-) Thx!

    Cheers

    Hi Ken,
    if I remember correctly there was a issue witn NVidia in the past.
    Could it be that you use any kind of desktop manager?

    Doesn’t seem to have that problem for me. Couple suggestions you might try, replace .* in your regex with .*? and \n with \R and see if that helps at all.

    Hi,
    please ignore my ignorance but I don’t understand your query.
    Nan = not a number = float !?
    null = 0 or null char ?

    Npp should support different programming/markup languages
    so from my point of view it doesn’t make sense to colorize
    in general.

    I guess I missed something here, did I ?

    Cheers

    Hi AJ Baxter,

    what you can do is writing a python script which can do it.
    Something like

    for i in range(1,3): identifier = editor.getLine(i) if identifier == 'something to compare': notepad.setLangType(LANGTYPE.CPP) ...

    If you know how it can be identified and you are willing to go this way let me know.
    Btw. what needs to be done, reagrding python script plugin installation and creation
    of script can you read here.

    Cheers

    Searched a bit. For anyone with similar wishes as me, the problem started in 6.7. The last version with the original indent style is thus 6.6.9 https://notepad-plus-plus.org/news/notepad-6.6.9-release.html

    So I’ll leave this post as developer feedback and stay on 6.6.9 until further notice. Thanks
