Hi, @alan-kilborn and All,

Yes, these two drop-down lists help us to compare if a specific functionality is supported or not, between two regex engine flavours, as well as some specificities for each one !

Note that my last sentence, between parentheses ( $0 vs $1 ) is not connected at all, with these two drop-down lists, but, simply, refers to subjects asked by @glossar !

@guy038 said in Replace all occurrences of a character between 2 words:

Indeed, as meta-characters, the [ and ] must be escaped with the \ symbol to search them as literal symbols. But the [ syntax has also a special meaning, with the NodeBB Markdown language !

Given these problems (that we usually initially forget when posting), I may consider going with this substitution instead, for any future regexes I post containing the dreaded backslash-bracket situation:

for backslash-open-square-bracket: \x5B
for backslash-close-square-bracket: \x5D

Or…maybe not. :-)

@Ekopalypse said in Macro script when txt content changes:

You start the script via the PythonScript menu, BUT only once. If you call it multiple times, the macro will be called the same number of times. I should have mentioned that before, sorry.

ahahah you are right :) The title and the interpreter are reversed twice … I should have guessed it.

It seems to work perfectly.
now, I just have a txt encoding problem but that goes beyond this post

thank you all

Hello, @glossar, @terry-r and All,

Some other regexes !

To match any non-empty single-line area, between ( and ) included, not containing any ,, use the regex

\([^(),\r\n]*\)

To match any non-empty single-line area, between ( and ) included, containing, at least, one ,, use the regex

(?-s)\([^(),\r\n]*,.+?\)

To match any non-empty single-line area, between ( and ) not included, not containing any ,, use the regex

\(\K[^(),\r\n]*(?=\))

To match any non-empty single-line area, between ( and ) not included, containing, at least, one ,, use the regex

(?-s)\(\K[^(),\r\n]*,.+?(?=\))

Best regards,

guy038

@guy038

Ok, Guy is putting on a “clinic”, in this case for “All”.
In that case, “Nice Job!”

@Al-Kiecker

Auto-completion popup, perhaps?

Try the Settings menu and then select Preferences…. Then seek out Auto-Completion :

Thanks for all the hard work. It seems to be working, just a few minor glitches. But they are probably on my end. Will let you know more as to what I find later on.
Again, Thanks A Lot
Bill

Alan:
Thanks so much for the response.
I am using UDL, these languages have the extensions configured etc.
However, I took the parser and put it in like it used to be, changed the id etc…
for instance:

<parser displayName="p" id ="pcode.xml" commentExpr="(?m-s:;.*$)" > <function mainExpr="^DEFINE\s+\K\w+" /> </parser>

I changed the overridemap.xml to contain the following, still no love.

<association id= "pcode.xml" userDefinedLangName="PCODE" />

Language definition:

Any tips…???

@guy038 This is exactly what I wanted. Thanks for that complex RegEx.
No issues.

@Alan-Kilborn said in MISC Clickable Links is GONE! How can I turn off links now?:

Whenever a setting “disappears” from Notepad++'s preferences, try looking around the user-interface.

++

Also, I and the rest of the npp-user-manual.org maintainers do our best to keep the manual up-to-date with the most recent Notepad++ version. The preferences doc gives a thorough description of each “page” of the Settings > Preferences dialog, and even tries to indicate when a given menu entry has been moved. If you search for “click” or “clickable”, you will quickly see where that option currently resides.

The picture:

how can i change the red color in this picture?

You change most colors in Notepad++ in the Style Configurator, found on the Settings menu, so specifically for your case:

Select a “foreground color” to your liking.

Hi, @antonio-rosciano and All,

However, note that the latest version of N++, as of February 26, 2021, is version 7.9.3 ! !

guy038

thank you all !

@Jaacov-Molcho

but not for all Hebrew characters

but the same characters are fine directly in Npp?
If so, it could be a problem with the font or with the rendering of the font.
Are you already using the same font? (Change Console Font from NppExec menu!?)
If it is a rendering problem, then I doubt it can be solved easily.

@Alexandru-Tanasa

I think forget the browser part of the question as that is off-topic for a Notepad++ forum.

Did you get the tab character appearing for sure in Notepad++ after your replace operation?

Best way to tell for sure might be turning on visible whitespace by:
View menu > Show Symbol > Show White Space and TAB

and then tab characters will appear like this (orange arrows):

b6ff66c4-2a0c-417e-a61a-51a0aa8de558-image.png

But again, this may just be helping you in Notepad++.
You will have to go elsewhere to find the answer to your browser question.

@mathlete2 said in customize delimiter highlighting:

Batch

@PeterJones

The batch lexer is improved in Scintilla 4.4.6 which looks like it may be updated with the next Notepad++ release.

Cheers.

@Doug-Ewell said in Dual monitor with different resolutions didn't scale well with latest 7.9.3:

I’d like to see this as a user setting,

I did some looking into the change in this in N++ code between 7.9.2 and 7.9.3. It’s something called a “manifest” file change. It’s a build time thing, not a runtime thing, so (with my limited knowledge) I don’t think it could be a “user setting”.

@Terry-R said in Search in *.txt Files for a string that's not in and add it:

(?s-i).?Keyword=notIndexedvalue.\K|(.*\K)

Hello Terry,
thank you so much… Works very fine for me…

Hello, @alexandru-tanasa and All,

Which kind of text or literal text needs to be bold ?

Which file type are you using ( For instance, a Markdown file with extension md )

How you presently obtain the change of ‘some_text’ into ‘some_text’ ?

Note : You can use the </> option to write raw text, in your next post !

Best Regards,

Re: First thanks to @PeterJones, @Alan-Kilborn, @guy038. And sorry again for showing my lack of coding. I am an Electrical Engineer almost 14 years in that filed. Last few years into computer programming learning and studying on my own and one day found notepad++ after that I must say I am addicted to that. Whenever I have problems I refer forums(including notepad++) and study materials. I usually spent a lot of days for finding solution. After everything fails then only I will put my query here. From now onwards I will spend more efforts to studying and understand. @guy038 Dear sir, You are not only providing a solution, Its Love.
Again all, Sorry for Taken your valuable times and assure you I won’t come again without 100% tried my self after studying the required materials.
Best Regards,
Ohm-Dios
