Thanks, that was the step I was missing.

@Kelly-Hoke

that would indicate that the lexer, which was active, isn’t capable of
lexing the document fast enough. Was this an udl or a standard lexer?

Hello, @jay-imerman and All,

And, if you run this S/R, using the Regular expression search mode, you must adopt this syntax :

SEARCH "

REPLACE \\"

because the Escape \ is a special regex character and needs to be escaped, itself, with an other \ symbol, to be taken as a literal !

@Tuan-Zuli

It appears you are talking about using the Pythonscript plugin?

Maybe you want something like this? (Hard to say definitively without further detail being provided):

editor.replace('aaa\r\nbbb', 'AAA\r\nBBB')

Of course the use of \r\n is for Windows files only. If your files are Linux you want to drop the \r and use only \n.

Supporting info:

See the 7.8.5 change.log entry:

Make Count command in Find dialog respect Backward-direction and Wrap-around options.

Hello, @Brigham-Narins

Follow Information, To Scrolling with down and up arrow keys:

Ctrl+Shift+↑/↓ is supposed to move lines in Notepad++. Shift+↑/↓ will select text. Shift enables text selection as cursor moves either with arrows or Home/End/Page Up/Page
Down keys Ctrl+←/→ makes cursor move by words instead of characters Ctrl+Page Up/Page Down jumps to actual next page, not just next screen Ctrl+Home/End jumps to beginning/end of the document

I hope above information will be useful for you.
Thank you.

I’ve created the corresponding issue on GitHub:
https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/8034
It contains two test files attached, as well as two words to be searched for to reproduce the issue in the whole scope.

@PeterJones, @Alan-Kilborn

It works. Thanks a lot.

Hopefully I’m including enough information to explain my lostness

Unfortunately, not even close. Sorry.

Not everyone here knows what CSR2 is – based on your mention of “car files”, I am assuming the top google hit of a racing game is probably it. Given that the game itself isn’t necessarily common knowledge here, us knowing what might be different between the “version 1” and “version 2” car files is rather unlikely, and it’s really hard to give you help with so little information.

The instructions you were given (“look for \s and replace all”) aren’t even complete. I am assuming they wanted you to replace all space character – in which case, you need to make sure you have the regular expression mode selected the Replace dialog – because \s can be the special regex sequence to match any whitespace (space, tab, newline, and some others). Also, you don’t tell us what they asked you to replace the \s with.

@Sarah-Duong

You probably also want to remove the space before the vertical bar as well?

Try this:

Find what box: (?-s) \|.+
Replace with box: Make sure this box is EMPTY !
Wrap around checkbox: ticked
Search mode radiobutton: Regular expression
Press the Replace All button

That is, BTW, one of the reasons I decided to take an active role in the documentation development: whenever I find there’s something that I cannot remember how to do, I check to see if it’s in the docs; if it’s not there, I like being able to add it in so that 6 months down the road, when I’ve forgotten it again, I can look it up. :-)

:-D

@jack4455667788 said in Notepad++ 7.5.4 (64-bit) slow working with large files (solved):

this may have been fixed in later releases

How does one “fix” this? Autocomplete is a feature, if it is turned on it will attempt to do its work as best it can. In some scenarios, it isn’t going to be optimal.

Interesting. There might be enough people who would want that function for it to be worth implementing – though I cannot remember ever thinking to myself that I missed that ability, so it might not become a high priority for the developers. But the idea is reasonable enough that it’s probably worth reading the FAQ that will direct you to the right location for feature requests and bug fixes.

Sounds like a scary scenario to me.

Thank you very much !

@Ekopalypse Thank you very much : I have saved my “DeepBlack.xml” file .
I asked this question because the last time I upgraded from 7.8.1 to 7.8.2, all my color configuration had been lost !

So I prefer to be cautious for the future upgrades…

Thank you very much !
