  @Adam-Yik My advice would be to sort the list (presumes they are one per line but you do not say) and then use the command to remove consecutive duplicate lines. What is left should be unique. Sadly, notepad++'s compare tool didn’t have a feature that filters out only differences, I don’t know of ANY compare tool that detects duplicate lines.

  @Adam-Yik said in regex - search and replace - "remember"?: it is very similar to Directory-based system such as windows 10. However, up to 9 files and folders can exist in a directory, and There is no such limitation in Windows, and it doesn’t have anything to do with regular expression processing. Please don’t spread misinformation.

  Hmm … don’t have Windows 10 and using 64bit, but for me Customize Toolbar is working with Npp 7.8.5 Maybe you wanna give it a try to test with a portable version to see if there is an issue with your setup? Maybe an issue with another plugin you have installed?

  @Ninon_1977 first you have to install PythonScript plugin from PluginAdmin. Then click Plugins->PythonScript->New Script give it a meaningful name and copy the content into the newly created document. Then follow the instructions in the script. Change the lexername and the regexes in the configuration area. Lexername must be exactly the same as shown in the language menu and use the regex from @PeterJones Something like this regexes[(0, (79, 175, 239))] = (r'\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2} \d{2}:', 0) all other regexes from the example can be commented. (79, 175, 239) <-- this is the rgb color Execute the script via Plugins->Python Script->Scripts->YOUR_SCRIPT (needs to be done once per npp start only)

  @Donniel-Collera I think maybe @gurikbal-singh is trying to ask you to provide your Debug Info. That would be found by going to the ? menu and choosing Debug Info… and then in the resulting box clicking on the link that says “Copy debug info into clipboard”.

  @guy038 said in Encoding says file is UTF8 but it's not: UN-tick the option Apply to opened ANSI files in Settings > Preferences… > New Document > Encoding, if the UTF-8 option is ticked This was my case. I didn’t know this option. Thank you.

  @Alan-Kilborn Thanks for your reply. Leaving the file open has been my workaround so far. Yes, its my go to file and I would be lost without it :-) I will keep in mind your suggestions & tricks and will definitely come in handy.

  @PeterJones said in Remove useless Language Folders: It’s exactly what it means, and it’s exactly the opposite of what it means. I have issued doc PR#77, which among other things, clarifies the “Make Language menu compact” so it’s understood that combing that option with disabled languages might cause there to be empty-letter menus.

  @Paolo-Serpi, @Alan-Kilborn I see. Let’s make sure that the Python plugin is correctly installed. I suppose you installed it with the Plugins > Plugins Admin... menu. Now we are going to see if it is working properly. Please click Plugins > Python Script > Show Console. On the bottom of the console there is a text box, please type in the following code notepad.new() and press Run. A new document should be opened. Got it? If it worked, check again Preferences > Editing > Multi-Editing Settings > Enable (Ctrl+Mouse click/selection). Try once more time to run the Python script, as described in previous posts. Other than these ones, I am running out of ideas.

  @Bill-Hepler The data in the black code region seems already sorted? What’s the significance of the 3 items below the code box? And I don’t see any leading spaces/tabs anywhere?

  Se eu definir o OEM850 como a codificação padrão, após a reinicialização 850, será mostrado, então isso está funcionando para mim. Qual versão do Npp você está usando? Pode ser encontrado em? menu - é chamado de informações de depuração. If I set OEM850 as the default encoding then after restart 850 is shown, so this is working for me. Which Npp version are you using? Can be found from ? menu - it is called debug-info.

  @Michael-Vincent Personally I haven’t used DoxyIt in years. I wouldnt say it’s not supported, just my interest is quite lacking. In light of recent circumstances I find myself with copious amounts of free time currently, so I will make it a point to take a look at your PR soon.

  @Robin-Cruise View->Show Symbol->Show All Characters But as @Terry-R wrote, it seems that you are changing your requirements and this is something that does not work well with regexes. If there is a language barrier here, try using an online translator and posting in your native language and the translated English version. What I have written here was translated with DeepL.com

  @Alan-Kilborn said in How to copy strings?: I suppose my posted script has “extensibility” going for it, as opposed to the macro solution, that to me seems difficult to extend to even single quotes. Yes, though my regex solves OP’s problem, lack of extensibility is one of its drawbacks - Regarding this issue, for the moment I run out of ideas, but don’t give up. Also, compared with your PS, my regex has another drawback, as it couldn’t preserve the original position of the caret. What a shame! ha ha Have fun!

  Hello, @carverof-canyons and All, Thank you so much for your appreciation. No, I’m not a paid staff member, at all ! Just a volunteer, who loves N++ and be happy to help people when I guess a possible solution ;-)) And, anyway, I am confined at home, in France, like everywhere else, in the world. So, presently, I have plenty of time to think about some problems ! Cheers, guy038
