@Ekopalypse said in new site rss?:

thought you were talking about this community/forum site

If you read back through the conversation, I thought the same thing. It wasn’t until @patrickdrd 's penultimate post that I realized he meant the main site. :-)

@Alan-Kilborn
Great, thank you very very much :)

@Zsolt-Kántor said in There is no other way to associate files from NP++ Preferences only if you start the app with Admin rights?:

I hope it will in the future version.

Well, it doesn’t look good as (a) that pull request is from 2018 and (b) it is a closed pull request.

I don’t know but I don’t think so.

@Meta-Chuh said in Notepad++ 7.6 autoupdate disable:

change the nextUpdateDate value in config.xml to the next millennium. nextUpdateDate=“30000101” for example

Thanks for the workaround! It worked for me 🙂

@PeterJones Again many thanks for your effort and patience. I will try to work out your line of thought, but that will not be today, perhaps not even tomorrow. Busy as hell and in the mean time I work as I have done two years or so, which is rather a nuisance.
But again I appreciate your helpful thinking.
I will be back as soon as I can.
Cheers.

DSpellCheck is at v1.4.13, and I haven’t got jN installed, so I checked the other one.

MenuSearch is the culprit. When I close NP, it disappears from the process tree as well. Sorted :)

Thank you @gurikbal-singh .
The information you provided matches few conditions.

@PeterJones

Heheh…Peter holds people hostage to some decoding effort…hehehe. Wish I’d thought of that technique. It’s got snarky me written all over it. LOL

In other words, Nice one Peter!

Now it works like a charm. Thank you again!

@Akshay-Khatavkar said :

I want to get certain columns from the file and convert it to csv file format

You could do it with code. Or you could use Notepad++'s column-select mode (*) to grab a column and paste it into your favorite spreadsheet app.

@The-Rain said in Advanced Visual Theme:

Is it possible to apply a visual design like this for Notepad ++? Why?

No. You cannot affect the styling of the GUI itself in that manner.

You can affect the text and background colors, so you can make light text on dark background: there are plenty of builtin “dark” themes that ship with Notepad++, or you can design your own theme to your liking. There is documentation on themes and the Preferences > Style Configurator dialog.

@GreatMCGamer said in Plugin for opening files from clicking text in a file?:

When clicked the plugin will look for the specified file by going 2 folders backwards from the file

@PeterJones said in Custom Styles for 'Special' Comments:

So I see a conflict: do you want to use a UDL ([Language > Define Your Language](https://npp-user-manual.org/docs/user-
If using the builtin HTML lexer, unfortunately Settings > Style Configurator > HTML dialog doesn’t seem to list any styles that have user-defined keywords. And even if you could, I think comments would override that.

I was hoping to simply modify the built in HTML lexer. Thanks for confirming that that is not possible.

However, there are workarounds:

you can add extra highlighting to a builtin lexer (like the HTML lexer) using regexes via the script EnhanceAnyBuiltinLexer.py that @Ekopalypse shares, in this linked post you can add extra highlighting to a UDL language using regexes via the script EnhanceUDLLexer.py that @Ekopalypse shares in this linked post

I will check these out, but regex is usually challenging for me. I’ll give it a go.

Thanks again,

Tom Benedict

@Gerhard-Petrowitsch said in UDL-XML for Perl:

Can you give me a pointer on how to realize option 1?

The Preferences > Style Configurator documentation explains:

Some language/style combinations (like Preferences > Style Configurator > Perl > INSTRUCTION WORD) will additionally have a list of default keywords (not editable) and user-defined keywords (which allow you to add new keywords to apply this style to).

@Randy-Reist said in Notepad++ File Association vs. No Authenication:

authentication error.

Authentication errors in Notepad++ sound like a proxy issue. See this topic for how to set up Notepad++ to properly see your proxy. Unfortunately, there are some proxy configurations that NPP doesn’t handle. You may have to turn off the auto-updater, and manually install updates and maybe plugins as well.

@MAPJe71 , @Alan-Kilborn

yes, that is helpful - thank you very much.
