So then I went to the sourceforge repo and saw v1.3.2 was available there.

Interesting. Sounds like the Plugin Admin links are both for the 32-bit version? Since I’ve been using a modified copy, I never noticed.

Nope. Putting the 32bit in the 64bit plugin folder, I get explicit 32-bit error
20bd68f0-ea25-436f-82d3-723fd4e68376-image.png

I tried downloading the 64bit directly from here, and got the same access violation.

I also verified nppPluginList correctly links to the 64bit zip for 1.3.1.

Sounds like it’s working for you now?

Yes, v1.3.2-64bit worked right off the bat, no problem.

I don’t find it that useful in single file projects - I just use function list,

That’s probably why it never “stuck” when I’d tried getting into ctags before.

but for developing N++ plugins or maybe a multi-file Perl module (e.g., Win32::Mechanize::NotepadPlusPlus) it’s pretty helpful.

That’s the personal project I’ll probably use it the most in. And my upcoming work project will involve a multi-file CPP program – I’ll mostly be in the IDE bundled with the hardware that the program will be running on, but when I’m at my desk, I’ll probably do “quick” edits in Notepad++, so ctags/TagLEET will probably help there, too.

@Alan-Kilborn beat me to it!!!

Try adding the XML Tools from Plugins Admin (Plugins => Plugins Admin…).

Once installed, Plugins => XML Tools has lots of options to look at including “Check XML Syntax now”, “Validate Now” …

Cheers.

Removing config.xml fixed the issue on my work computer.

@Ricardo-E-Trelles-0 ,

If you don’t like the background, change the default background. I’ve pointed you to the setting multiple times.

Thank you so much! Yes it works.

@Venkat-Ramani ,

You will have to re-phrase with a complete question. You appear to want to replace something with something else, but do not do a good job with explaining the before and after. Please read the boilerplate I am attaching, as it will help you understand how to better ask the question and better format the question, plus link to documentation that will help you learn how to figure this out yourself.

If you show a willingness to learn, and to help us help you, by replying in a way that shows you read and understood my recommendations below, you are likely to get good help. Otherwise, I wish you the best of luck.

Hello, @vivianjenylord and All,

Some explanations on this regex S/R :

The part \.\w+ searches a literal dot character, followed with a non-null range of word chars…

But ONLY IF  the condition inside the look-ahead is True. That is to say if, further on, in current line, a colon followed with a second non-null range of word chars, stored as group1 as embedded in parentheses, can be found

In replacement, we rewrite a dot, followed with the contents of group1 ( the country name )

Cheers,

@romanml71 said in Something got changed, how do I revert it:

However, not all plugins are in both places. nppcalc.dll was only in C:\ProgramFiles(x86)…

I guess this could be if some older installation was updated with a much newer version.
My understand it is that as long as Local Conf mode : OFF is set,
the configuration, plugins … will be read from %APPDATA% and in case
of Local Conf mode : ON npp is looking to the directories next to its executable.

@Douglas-Kaynor

Normally a double click in the title bar should restore it to be able to resize it.

@Carlos-Zhang said in explorer.dll. The specified module could not be found.:

Plugins > Open Plugins Folder: Nothing happened. File Manager did not open.

Hello, @김성찬 and All,

An other and easy solution is to use the Begin/End Select feature !

1 Left click at the very beginning of the first line 0000 90 9F 33 .. .. .., to move the caret to this location

2 Select the option Edit > Begin/End Select

3 Use the Ctrl + End shortcut to get the very end of your hexadecimal dump text

4 Press and hold down the ALT key and left click after the 16th hexadecimal byte of the last line

5 Select, again, the option Edit > Begin/End Select

=> After a while, needed to process 400,000 lines about, as you said, you should notice this big rectangular selection !

6 Simply, press the Delete key

Voila :-))

Best Regards,

guy038

P.S. :

If you forget to hold down the ALT key, at step 4 of the method above, you, obviously, get a normal selection of all your text !

@Klasen-Eric

So my understanding is, that you run it once, right?
And after executing you got your main print statement in the console, correct?
After that, you need to activate the buffer aka clicking into it or switching
from another document into the one which should be handled and then
it should start coloring your regex matches.
Did you ensure that the match group is 0? Only if you used G\d+.
If you used something like
G0(\d+) and you are interested to get the digit colored which follow G0
you would need to use match group 1.
So for example this

regexes[(0, (79, 175, 239))] = (r'G\d+', 1)'

would be an error as no match group 1 gets created

either use this

regexes[(0, (79, 175, 239))] = (r'G\d+', 0)'

or that (which really doesn’t make sense in this case but …

regexes[(0, (79, 175, 239))] = (r'(G\d+)', 1)'

Hi, @thunderdog, @peterjones and All,

Peter, nice shot , too ! As a sort was necessary, I simply thought about a second regex S/R. But you’re right, we can perfectly use a composite regex to get all the job done ;-))

So, the road map is :

Perform the regex S/R, twice

Run the alphabetic ( Unicode ) ascending sort

Perform the same regex S/R, once again

Note that I also slightly shorten your search regex ! Here is the final solution :

Assuming the initial text of @PeterJones, normalized in two lines, which does end with either a dot, an exclamation mark or an question mark !

The day was very difficult today. I hope the next few days get better. Do you hope the same? I hope you hope the same as me! Hello, world! This sentence is just ten teeny-tiny words long, silly goose! No?

SEARCH (?-s)^#+\t(.+)#$|\w+[^\w\r\n]*(?=.*\t)|\h*(.+?[.?!])(?!#)

REPLACE ?2\2\t\2#\r\n:?1\1:#

After two clicks on the Replace All button, we obtain :

###### The day was very difficult today.# ######## I hope the next few days get better.# ##### Do you hope the same?# ######## I hope you hope the same as me!# ## Hello, world!# ########### This sentence is just ten teeny-tiny words long, silly goose!# # No?#

Now, we click on the Edit > Line Operations > Sort Lines Lexicographically Ascending option and get :

# No?# ## Hello, world!# ##### Do you hope the same?# ###### The day was very difficult today.# ######## I hope the next few days get better.# ######## I hope you hope the same as me!# ########### This sentence is just ten teeny-tiny words long, silly goose!#

Let’s go back to fhe Replace dialog , again and use the same S/R

SEARCH (?-s)^#+\t(.+)#$|\w+[^\w\r\n]*(?=.*\t)|\h*(.+?[.?!])(?!#)

REPLACE ?2\2\t\2#\r\n:?1\1:#

After one final click on the Replace All button, here is your expected text :

No? Hello, world! Do you hope the same? The day was very difficult today. I hope the next few days get better. I hope you hope the same as me! This sentence is just ten teeny-tiny words long, silly goose!

Wow… Awesome !

And if we want to get all that text in a single paragraph, just apply this last regex S/R !

SEARCH ^\R|(\R)

REPLACE ?1\x20

giving :

No? Hello, world! Do you hope the same? The day was very difficult today. I hope the next few days get better. I hope you hope the same as me! This sentence is just ten teeny-tiny words long, silly goose!

@asvc

Security is indeed an important concern in current and future times.
Perhaps you should not use Notepad++ at all, unless/until all possible holes in Notepad++ and Windows are addressed.

Hello, @alan-kilborn,

Of course, it’s been more than 25 years since I really practice AWK. It was on an HP-Unix server that would be laughed at, nowadays !

I have already praised, several times, the precision and power of regexes, which, in a few words, produce great effects !

For the same reasons, it seems that I am simply impressed by the AWK language ;-))

@dail said in Character II:

My personal rule any more is I’ll usually put in as much effort as the person I’m replying to. :)

That’s an extremely reasonable criterion.
A lot of postings would go unanswered, though. :-)

@Ekopalypse, thanks. Let’s continue in the main topic ?

Hi, @banjo-g, @alan-kilborn and All,

A generic and general form of the regex, described in my previous post, could be :

SEARCH (?-is)^.*?Expression A(?s).*?Expression B.*?$\R

Basically, this regex :

Searches for two lines :

A line A, containing Expression A, at any location of line A

A line B, containing Expression B, at any location of line B

Selects all range of characters, generally multi-lines, from the beginning of line A till the end of line B, with its EOL characters

The lines A and B may be identical. However, in that case, Expression B must be located after Expression A, in current line !

Notes :

First, the in-line modifier (?-is)

Carries a non-insensitive search ( so sensitive to case )

Forces the regex engine to interpret the regex dot symbol . as matching a single standard character ( not EOL ones )

Then, the part ^.*?Expression A matches, from beginnning of line, the shortest range, possibly null, of standard characters, followed by Expression A, with that exact case

Now, the part (?s).*?Expression B looks for the shortest range, possibly null, of characters, including EOL, followed by Expression B, with that exact case

Finally, the part .*?$\R searches for the shortest range, possibly null, of characters till an end of line, followed with its line-break

Cheers,

guy038
