I was feeling deja vu as I was reading this blog, and the feeling was not misplaced.
These verbs were discussed previously as part of the more generic discussion here FAQ: Regex “Backtracking Control Verbs”; follow the link and the use the “find” function of your browser to jump to the text _______________ (*SKIP)(*FAIL) _______________.

Should be fixed now, thanks for reporting!

If you think you’ve found a new topic that looks to be coming from an AI/spambot, just downvote and report, don’t reply. If you reply, and I or another moderator ends up deleting the original, it just leaves a reply hanging off a topic without an original post, which is pointless. If I find such replies, they will likely be deleted as well.

@tutoriales-honestos asked again here, and I have redirected followon conversation to this original Topic.

The quick answer is still that you can use a UDL, as I said in 2022.

However, I had forgotten about this discussion, so I had started researching an answer to the ask-again Topic, and discovered that the SciTE testbed-editor will open Go/Golang (*.go) files and internally use the C++ lexer (LexCPP.cpp). The cpp.properties includes definitions for Go. So it can handle it.

I am going to point this out in the long-open ISSUE #8090 that Alan linked, because with that, there shouldn’t be much overhead to add it to Notepad++. So if anyone pays attention to my reply there, it might be that it’s much easier to add that language than was originally thought.

@Alan-Kilborn ,

Two good points. I just put in feature requests for the poll plugin:

@mkupper said in Comment on How do I create a Poll in the Forum?:

I don’t think polls would be useful in an environment where only one person’s vote matters

As a plugin author, I might consider using a poll to decide what features to add to a plugin, or how to implement a feature.

There are other ways to do this (raising a GitHub issue and instructing people to vote by responding to the original post with thumbs-up and thumbs-down emojis, for example), but there’s definitely something to be said for less hacky solutions like the polls this forum offers.

@Terry-R said in Rugby World Cup:

Using AI

Flipping coins should be better than using AI*. An AI’s output or results is a (hopefully) best case averaging and fitting of a prompt string with the existing blend of unknown data already stored in the AI. The AI stirs and regurgitates. Flipping coins is both understandable to the lay person, neutral, and can result in outcomes outside of an AI’s averaging and data fitting algorithms.

* Look into the precession affect when a coin is flipped. Tossed coins tend to land same side up! :-)

PR was just added to master. Looks like next version will have it, or you can test the artifact right now.

Looks like it’s working …

NOTE: Customized theme in the screenshot. The ‘stylers.model.xml’ has been updated for the default theme to include MS-SQL.

Cheers.

@xomx ,

Yeah, better that they use their tool to decribe the problem requirements, watch it give them what they ask for, and then have to hire human programmers at inflated costs, to fix the program the A.I. gave them with their specs. The cost of not knowing what you really want, what you need, what can be done, and for changing your specs. :)
(Skynet doesn’t forgive, that’s why it programmed itself to remove the problem…incorrect analysis. :) )

@PeterJones said in SQL Syntax color code:

I said,

If you start with a new/empty tab in Notepad++, it will default to being plain-text

BTW: if you are editing more SQL than any other type of file, you might want to change your default syntax highlighter: The [Settings] > Preferences > New Document has a Default language pulldown; if you change that to SQL, then every new empty file new # (from a File > New or starting a new instance of Notepad++ with no session) will default to SQL instead of normal text.

I am making new thread.
i need your help regarding this .
i request you to reply me on that thread

@guy038 super answer, thanks

@alan-kilborn ,
It actually let’s you use different regex flavors, (PCRE pre 7.3 and 7.3 plus, ECMAScript, Python, Golang, Java8, and .NET(C#), but the benefit of regex101.com, is that you can interactively see how your regex construction is going to work on the text you supply, either just Search or both Search and Replace. It’s actually educational to see what happens as you experiment with different regex constructions. You have to construct and then execute NPP to see results, and you’re not sure what you did wrong unless there’s a mode in NPP that does the same interactive result. I use it all the time to construct the regex I’ve been building, to be able to quickly see how the regex I’m constructing works on their supplied text. It’s just another tool, and it is recommended as Peter points out in the FAQ, which is where I learned about it. So I can see why someone might want to use that tool, Alan. :)
