@Peter-Gillespie

Maybe you are talking about THIS ONE?

I got techy and didn’t provide the debug info so it was closed.

What is “techy”? Maybe a typo?

5 different “Git” places to do different things

Hmmm, well I guess there’s a few, but the main 2 are the one above that you (probably?) posted in, and the user-manual one…

Also if acceptable could a mod perhaps reopen it.

Typically those "mod"s / devs don’t hang out here.
This is more of a “user-to-user” support community.

@AzBright1

I assume because in the xml there are some chars which aren’t escaped correctly.

change existing with

<Keywords name="Operators1">* - % &amp; ( ) . / + &lt; = &gt; ;</Keywords>

and the words <EG and >EG from Keywords1

with

&lt;EG &gt;EG

and then it should import.

@Piet2609

Does using {trigger: work for you?

https://sourceforge.net/projects/npp-python/

This python script will generate a custom python.xml file used by Notepad++ for auto-completion features when programming in python (function names, arguments, and descriptions), using your own set of imported modules.

Sorry…Alan Kilborn
I was new…repetitive never will happen again…thanks for reply and suggestions…but Np++ had many things option/functions as excel as well…
stay blessed

@PeterJones said in Old Pythonscript stopped working:

Think about what you just said!

Clearly, and sadly, there isn’t much thinking going on.
The same dumb thing was said HERE, turning the dumbness into an official complaint against a great piece of software. :-(

@Asher-Knopsnider ,

See the FAQ: https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/topic/15958/faq-desk-you-ve-asked-your-question-in-the-wrong-place

You seem to have a misunderstanding of this forum. This is a forum for Notepad++, where we talk about (and ask/answer questions about) the Notepad++ text editor.

General programming questions (where “programming” includes writing webpages) are not on-topic here. The best question to ask yourself is “does the answer to the question I want to ask depend on what application I am using to write my code”? If the answer to that question is “no, it doesn’t matter whether I’m using Notepad++ or notepad.exe or something else to write my code”, then the Notepad++ forum is not the right place to ask the question.

@Todd-Scheck said in .dsc files:

pluggin for .dsc files

Doing a google search for this file format immediately turns up a couple of types. One is a file used by Nikon to support images taken on a camera. However they state that the file is used by the software, not to be opened manually. Another is related to WPS Office and as such may well be a binary file, or at least again a file that may contained data formatted only for use with that software.

I hope you understand that Notepad++ is a “text” editor. It does not understand any binary data and will very likely corrupt any such file you attempt to use in Notepad++. If the file is only designed for “internal” use (within the S/W that uses it) again you are likely to cause issues using it in Notepad++.

Do you have more info on what is actually contained in the file you want to open in Notepad++, like the source?

@Francesca-D-Angelo said in Help needed please:

without the " at the beginning

First off, thanks for reading and doing as requested. It makes it so much easier if the examples can be trusted.

Try my previous solution and just remove the ". That should be sufficient although I do note some of the examples don’t have 3 sets. Your data seems a bit arbitrary as generally delimited data will always have the same number of fields

@Anatoliy-Sergeev and @Ivan-Bondarenko ,

As @andrecool-68 pointed out, your question has nothing to do with Notepad++. You are trying to hack a binary file from a game. Notepad++ is a text editor. Notepad++ cannot be expected to be able to read every proprietary binary file. No text editor, whether it’s Notepad++ or any other text editor, should be expected to read a proprietary binary file. Notepad++ cannot interpret this binary file as text, even if you or the game designer lies and calls it an XML file. It does not matter whether it’s because the file is encoded or encrypted or compressed or just a proprietary binary format: it is not a text file, and Notepad++ cannot help you read it as text.

Please stop this discussion of game hacking here. It is off topic for this forum.

@Анатолий-Сергеев и @Иван-Бондаренко ,

Как отметил @andrecool-68, ваш вопрос не имеет ничего общего с Блокнотом++. Вы пытаетесь взломать бинарный файл из игры. Блокнот++ - это текстовый редактор. Нельзя ожидать, что Блокнот++ сможет прочитать каждый проприетарный двоичный файл. Ни от какого текстового редактора, будь то Блокнот++ или любой другой текстовый редактор, нельзя ожидать, что он сможет прочитать проприетарный двоичный файл. Блокнот не может интерпретировать этот двоичный файл как текст, даже если вы или дизайнер игры лжёте и называет его XML-файлом. Не имеет значения, потому ли это, что файл закодирован или зашифрован, или сжат, или просто несвободный двоичный формат: это не текстовый файл, и Блокнот++ не может помочь вам прочитать его как текст.

Пожалуйста, прекратите обсуждение взлома игры здесь. Оно находится вне темы этого форума.

First of all I’m sorry for the English
i believe i got your help wrong.

I understood that it was going to have posted the question again in another sector of the forum for that reason I asked the question again here.

Excuse me.

@PeterJones Thanks. That will work just fine.

@Vishal-K said in File format changed to unknown , cant read the file data now:

I have few files which were fine 2 days back but suddenly when I opend the file today it is coming to unreadable format

I doubt it was anything that Notepad++ did. My first guess would be that you have been infected with a virus / ransomware / etc – I would run a scan immediately, if I were you.

If that’s not it, maybe you recently installed encryption or compression software, and the file has been modified since you last looked at it in Notepad++.

@Rafa-Rafa said in Perfomance on Win 10 compared to being instaled Win 7:

is a win 10 issue itself or is it notepad++

All other things (same data, same folder structure, same N++ version) being equal, we can probably exclude N++ as contributing a performance difference.

@PeterJones

Ah, okay, I didn’t (re)read the old thread closely enough. I thought something was going wacky with my browser or the site. I was thinking that old thread might be useful HERE, but maybe I was stuck on the “one-step” approach in my thinking (I think @guy038 always has us thinking one-step!), but I like Terry’s multi-step thoughts for that thread now.

may it be affected by menue-settings-preferences-misc-file status auto detection ?

@Ekopalypse Thank your for your reply. I’ll try that!

@I-neuw

Why not just give it a try?
