    installed the 64 bit version (7.7.1).
    Now I want to (re)install SourceCookifier.

    Seems the (perhaps) original author finally got around to it:

    @Auditormadness9

    I suppose your goal, purely for hacking purposes, is a reasonable one. :-)

    I’m still a bit light on knowledge on exactly what you have, but can’t you just use Notepad++'s normal Replace operation for it (forgetting hex editing)?

    It might require opening your file in “ANSI” encoding mode…

    send email from notepad++

    I have a Run menu entry that prepares a file for sending via Outlook, if that kind of thing is what you mean.

    Go to the Run menu and choose Run… and input:

    Press the Run button to test it out.
    If all goes well, make it a permanent entry in your Run menu by coming back in and pressing the Save… button.

    Notes:

    the | after _PATH) in the box is just the typing caret if you use an email program other than Outlook, you’d have to find the correct command for it even if you do use Outlook, you may need to specify the full path to it in the Run… box – I don’t know how your system is set up

    @bwisely

    I’m not sure I understand what you mean. If you rename the plugin folder and it still crashes then it is triggered by Npp itself, otherwise it is triggered by one of your installed plugins.
    If it is a plugin, then one option would be to figure out which one is responsible, by renaming all the plugins and reactivate one by one until the crash occurs again.
    The other option would be to open the dmp file in a program like windbg and analyze which call threw the exception, which means having a good understanding of how things work under the hood.

    Hello, @vavoices, @alan-kilborn and All,

    There is an easy solution to your problem. You just have to, temporarily, copy all the fields, which need sorting, at the beginning of curent line, accordingly to their sorting order ;-))

    For instance, starting with this INPUT text ( dummy text to illustrate the technique ! ) :

    skill_begin skill_name=[auto belt1] skill_id=10022 level=1 operate_type=P magic skill_begin skill_name=[auto_belt2] skill_id=10023 level=1 operate_type=P magic skill_begin skill_name=[auto_belt3] skill_id=10024 level=1 operate_type=P magic skill_begin skill_name=[auto_belt4] skill_id=10025 level=1 operate_type=P magic skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_ginseng_recovery] skill_id=22004 level=1 skill_begin skill name=[br_s_item_herb_of_ginseng_vp_up] skill_id=22005 level=2 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_ginseng_recovery] skill_id=22004 level=7 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_ginseng_recovery] skill_id=22004 level=8 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_kimchi_power_a] skill_id=22000 level=3 sklll_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_kimchi_power_b] skill_id=22001 level=4 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_kimchi_power_c] skill_id=22002 level=4 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_ginseng_recovery] skill_id=22004 level=9 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_kimchi_time] skill_id=22003 level=1 skill_begin skill_name=[chain_hydral] skill_id=18230 level=1 operate_type=A2 skill_begin skill_name=[chain_hydra2] skill_id=18230 level=2 operate_type=A2 sklll_begin skill_name=[chain_hydra3] skill_id=18230 level=3 operate_type=A2 skill_begin skill_name=[chain_hydra4] skill_id=18230 level=4 operate_type=A2

    Let’s suppose that you want to sort these lines, in ascending direction, by skill_id values and by level values

    Then, perform the following regex S/R :

    SEARCH (?x-is) ^ .* \b ( skill_id= \d+ ) .+ \b ( level= \d ) \b .*

    REPLACE $1 $2 $0

    you’ll get this temporary text :

    skill_id=10022 level=1 skill_begin skill_name=[auto belt1] skill_id=10022 level=1 operate_type=P magic skill_id=10023 level=1 skill_begin skill_name=[auto_belt2] skill_id=10023 level=1 operate_type=P magic skill_id=10024 level=1 skill_begin skill_name=[auto_belt3] skill_id=10024 level=1 operate_type=P magic skill_id=10025 level=1 skill_begin skill_name=[auto_belt4] skill_id=10025 level=1 operate_type=P magic skill_id=22004 level=1 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_ginseng_recovery] skill_id=22004 level=1 skill_id=22005 level=2 skill_begin skill name=[br_s_item_herb_of_ginseng_vp_up] skill_id=22005 level=2 skill_id=22004 level=7 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_ginseng_recovery] skill_id=22004 level=7 skill_id=22004 level=8 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_ginseng_recovery] skill_id=22004 level=8 skill_id=22000 level=3 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_kimchi_power_a] skill_id=22000 level=3 skill_id=22001 level=4 sklll_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_kimchi_power_b] skill_id=22001 level=4 skill_id=22002 level=4 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_kimchi_power_c] skill_id=22002 level=4 skill_id=22004 level=9 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_ginseng_recovery] skill_id=22004 level=9 skill_id=22003 level=1 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_kimchi_time] skill_id=22003 level=1 skill_id=18230 level=1 skill_begin skill_name=[chain_hydral] skill_id=18230 level=1 operate_type=A2 skill_id=18230 level=2 skill_begin skill_name=[chain_hydra2] skill_id=18230 level=2 operate_type=A2 skill_id=18230 level=3 sklll_begin skill_name=[chain_hydra3] skill_id=18230 level=3 operate_type=A2 skill_id=18230 level=4 skill_begin skill_name=[chain_hydra4] skill_id=18230 level=4 operate_type=A2

    Now, run the Edit > Line Operations > Sort lines lexicographically Ascending N++ option

    skill_id=10022 level=1 skill_begin skill_name=[auto belt1] skill_id=10022 level=1 operate_type=P magic skill_id=10023 level=1 skill_begin skill_name=[auto_belt2] skill_id=10023 level=1 operate_type=P magic skill_id=10024 level=1 skill_begin skill_name=[auto_belt3] skill_id=10024 level=1 operate_type=P magic skill_id=10025 level=1 skill_begin skill_name=[auto_belt4] skill_id=10025 level=1 operate_type=P magic skill_id=18230 level=1 skill_begin skill_name=[chain_hydral] skill_id=18230 level=1 operate_type=A2 skill_id=18230 level=2 skill_begin skill_name=[chain_hydra2] skill_id=18230 level=2 operate_type=A2 skill_id=18230 level=3 sklll_begin skill_name=[chain_hydra3] skill_id=18230 level=3 operate_type=A2 skill_id=18230 level=4 skill_begin skill_name=[chain_hydra4] skill_id=18230 level=4 operate_type=A2 skill_id=22000 level=3 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_kimchi_power_a] skill_id=22000 level=3 skill_id=22001 level=4 sklll_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_kimchi_power_b] skill_id=22001 level=4 skill_id=22002 level=4 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_kimchi_power_c] skill_id=22002 level=4 skill_id=22003 level=1 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_kimchi_time] skill_id=22003 level=1 skill_id=22004 level=1 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_ginseng_recovery] skill_id=22004 level=1 skill_id=22004 level=7 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_ginseng_recovery] skill_id=22004 level=7 skill_id=22004 level=8 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_ginseng_recovery] skill_id=22004 level=8 skill_id=22004 level=9 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_ginseng_recovery] skill_id=22004 level=9 skill_id=22005 level=2 skill_begin skill name=[br_s_item_herb_of_ginseng_vp_up] skill_id=22005 level=2

    You can verify that all the lines :

    Are first sorted by skill_id values ascending, then by level values ascending

    And, for a same skill_id key, are sorted by level values ascending ( case of skill_id=22004 )

    Finally, run this final regex S/R, in order to delete the temporary leading keys :

    SEARCH (?x-is) ^ .+ (?= skill_begin )

    REPLACE Leave EMPTY

    And here is your expected OUTPUT text :

    skill_begin skill_name=[auto belt1] skill_id=10022 level=1 operate_type=P magic skill_begin skill_name=[auto_belt2] skill_id=10023 level=1 operate_type=P magic skill_begin skill_name=[auto_belt3] skill_id=10024 level=1 operate_type=P magic skill_begin skill_name=[auto_belt4] skill_id=10025 level=1 operate_type=P magic skill_begin skill_name=[chain_hydral] skill_id=18230 level=1 operate_type=A2 skill_begin skill_name=[chain_hydra2] skill_id=18230 level=2 operate_type=A2 skill_id=18230 level=3 sklll_begin skill_name=[chain_hydra3] skill_id=18230 level=3 operate_type=A2 skill_begin skill_name=[chain_hydra4] skill_id=18230 level=4 operate_type=A2 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_kimchi_power_a] skill_id=22000 level=3 skill_id=22001 level=4 sklll_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_kimchi_power_b] skill_id=22001 level=4 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_kimchi_power_c] skill_id=22002 level=4 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_kimchi_time] skill_id=22003 level=1 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_ginseng_recovery] skill_id=22004 level=1 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_ginseng_recovery] skill_id=22004 level=7 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_ginseng_recovery] skill_id=22004 level=8 skill_begin skill_name=[br_s_item_herb_of_ginseng_recovery] skill_id=22004 level=9 skill_begin skill name=[br_s_item_herb_of_ginseng_vp_up] skill_id=22005 level=2

    Now, just tell me how you would like your file sorted and if all your numbers contain the same number of digits

    See you later !

    @zeta-orionis ,

    It allows you to run an external command. If you use the variables mentioned in the user manual, you can get it to pass the name of the active file to that external command, or the selected text, or some other similar info. You can save those Run > Run commands into an entry in the Run menu so that you don’t have to keep retyping a command that you use frequently.

    Yes that fixed it. I thought I had just done a recent update and had the latest version (but times flies). I read the article and I understand what was happening. I was not aware of this web site before, and now that I know about it , I will make sure to consult it before posting any more problems (should there even be any). This is the first problem I have had in the entire time using Notepad++ (10- 15 yrs )
    Thank you Alan Kilborn.

    You haven’t given us much to work with. What code, what is the Notepad++ version you are using. I suggest you should read the FAQ post Request for Help without sufficient information to help you.

    If you are referring to some program code this is probably not the best (or correct) forum to be asking in. Find a forum that deals with the program code you are using.

    Just because you are using Notepad++ to code in doesn’t mean this is the best or correct forum. You could use any text editor to code in, so it’s not the editor’s fault, rather it’s generally the method of your code itself.

    @Jacob-Wiqvist ,

    It is considered rude to edit a post after you have received a reply. Because your data now does match, it makes it look like I was wrong when I said your data doesn’t match; but two hours ago, it didn’t match. Now it does.

    -----

    If I take the first half of your edited post, and sort it as file1 on the left, and the second half of your edited post, and sort it as file2 on the right, then run ComparePlus > Compare, it properly lines things up. The same would have happened if you used my macro.

    @Sean-H / @Timothy-Allums ,

    Is it really the same issue in the post that was linked before? Because if you have the settings as shown by @Meta-Chuh, you do not have the same issue. I believe it is really the new feature in v8.4.7 that was trying to save you from lost data, as discussed in this more recent discussion. If it’s really the latter (and since you say v8.4.7, I am quite confident that’s the culprit), then you will see by reading to the end of that recent discussion that the next version (presumably v8.4.8) will contain a better solution for the problem that v8.4.7 was trying to solve. (And while waiting for v8.4.8, you could re-install v8.4.6, which will go back to older behavior in the meantime.)

    @Alan-Kilborn I can even explain the above. In that RegEx, (?s)^(<p.*?<\/p>\R)(\1<p.*?Please\s*E-mail\s*us) - (?s) means “search”, ^ means at the beginning of the line, (<p.*?<\/p>\R) means the first captured group, from <p...................</p> including the next line (which is done with the \R) and the rest is the second captured group in which \1 is to search for a duplicate of the first captured group, followed by another <p...................</p> string, followed by, “Please E-mail us”. The \s* before and after the, “E-mail” will make the words, “Please E-mail us” to be captured even if they are all on different lines (as well as if they are all on the same line).
    The $2 in the Replace field (“Replace in files” in this case) is to reproduce the second captured group in the final result.
