@millu-jorge ,

That plugin is new to me. But it seems to hook NPPN_* events and run NppExec scripts.

So, you would need to make an NppExec Script that will commit your project to GitHub – probably something that did a commit to your local repo, and a push to the GitHub repo. And then you could then hook the NPPN_FILESAVED event to call that NppExec script.

To do anything beyond that would require you to write the scripts that do the git/github actions you desire, and then figuring out which NPPN_* event best matches when you’d want that to.

You can look my NppExec + SVN examples below, and base your git scripts on those. However, I highly suggest investigating the Better Idea first:

Better Idea

I would recommend looking at the GitSCM plugin instead: that probably has all the functions you would want/need, without having to figure out a script for each of them, or hassle with hooking them to the right events.

NppExec + SVN examples

Personally, for my subversion-based version control, I have four NppExec scripts, which commit the current dir, commit the current file, add the current dir, and update the current dir. And I just entries in my contextMenu.xml (Settings > Edit Popup ContextMenu) that call those scripts, so I do it manually rather than on triggers. But even knowing that they can be done on triggers, I doubt I would do them, since not all my files are in subversion control, so I don’t want it trying to run the “commit” script every time I save a file that isn’t in subversion.

if you want to use my svn scripts as templates for the same concepts that you would use for git, I will include them below. However, you will not want to do the NPP_SAVE command in each if you are going to be triggering off of the NPPN_FILESAVED event, because that will cause an infinite loop

::Svn-Commit-Dir NPP_SAVE cd "$(CURRENT_DIRECTORY)" INPUTBOX "SVN commit $(CURRENT_DIRECTORY)" : "Message: " : cmd /c svn commit -m "$(INPUT)" cmd /c svn update ::Svn-Commit-File NPP_SAVE cd "$(CURRENT_DIRECTORY)" INPUTBOX "SVN commit $(FILE_NAME)" : "Message: " : cmd /c svn commit "$(FILE_NAME)" -m "$(INPUT)" cmd /c svn update "$(FILE_NAME)" ::Svn-Add-File NPP_SAVE cd "$(CURRENT_DIRECTORY)" cmd /c svn add "$(FILE_NAME)" ::Svn-Update cd "$(CURRENT_DIRECTORY)" cmd /c svn update .

(and no, I will not rewrite those to work for git/github for you. the concepts you need are all there, and translating those concepts to git will help you learn the tool.)

@Larry-Schwartz
My apologies for the confusion. I want to modify the configuration file that controls what file attributes are shown when EVERYTHING displays its file list. I use NPP as my text editor. I should be asking this question in the EVERYTHING forum. Again, my apologies for taking your time.

@Software-Support said in XML File - Create an element and get a value from existing attribute:

The value 2.92 will be appeared as 2

Well, for exactly that situation, you’d want to change the \d+ appearing in the original Find expression to \d+\.\d+, I guess…

But this gets into a bigger topic of how to match floating point numbers as well as integers.

And that really isn’t a Notepad++ topic, so patience with such questions wears thin. Suggest you follow the link I provided before about regular expressions.

@PeterJones said in Python Script toolbar button moves after execution:

So I don’t know what it might be.

Ok, thanks anyway Peter. Always appreciate your input. Hopefully someone will know what’s causing it.

@Артём

Keep an eye on this THREAD. Hopefully I am soon finishing up the script I’ve worked on to “solve” that very similar issue.

Think I’m finally getting there. Thank you Peter and, for now, over and out.

@Marek-Šanoba ,

How old is your shortcuts.xml ? The Send Via Outlook was commented out in v7.6.3 in 2019, and those comments were removed completely in v7.9.3 .

That said, you are allowed to have whatever commands you want in your run menu, so you are allowed to keep the ancient outlook /a "$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)" command if you want it. However, as with any program run from the command line, if it’s not in your PATH, you need to provide a full path to the outlook.exe executable. I have a working Outlook installation on my work laptop, but if I drop to cmd.exe or powershell and try to run Outlook from the command line by just typing outlook.exe, I get the error 'outlook.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. . This is the equivalent command-line message to the ShellExecute ERROR that you quoted.

For my new work laptop, with a clean installation of Outlook, outlook.exe is not in the PATH, so neither the command line nor Notepad++'s Run command can find it. But if I set Notepad++ > Run > Run… to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\root\Office16\OUTLOOK.EXE" /a "$(FULL_CURRENT_FILE)", it will attach the saved copy of the active file to an email using outlook – please note the quote marks.

So you need to find your path to the outlook executable. (Probably something similar, though I’m guessing you have a sensible 64bit outlook at "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\root\Office16\OUTLOOK.EXE", but that is just a guess)

hey thats so easy
thanks, now I will know from now!

@Alan-Bourke

You are right, that is one of the limitations.
One way around this limitation would be to use the EnhanceAnyLexer plugin, of which I am the author, and define a regex that matches anything within a beginning ' and closing ' character.

@PeterJones said in UDL and hex prefix:
That has cracked it thanks. The ‘e’ issue was because I had

end sub

in Folding style 1 Close, I should have had

‘end sub’

@Hakar-Mahmoud ,

See the “Scenario: My (unsaved) files are missing!” section in the Backup FAQ. Unfortunately, it’s not a miracle cure, but it offers the best advice we have on this subject. I suggest familiarizing yourself with that whole FAQ to not run into this problem again.

There’s the possibility to script a solution to such a problem; for ideas on that, see this related CONCEPT.

@guy038 You reminded me why I didn’t need my python plugin recently! I have been using that edit/insert/date and forgot about it! A lot of cool plugins are now incorporated in notepad, like sort/compare/etc…

@Seth-Bettwizilch said in TypeScript not highlighting syntax outside of default style:

recreate Vibrant Ink to be more faithful and up-to-date

Maybe give it a new fancy name as well, and submit it to the user-defined themes collection, where it will be maintained in the future (by you) and really shine! :-)

My thinking is that the existing Vibrant Ink theme is just going to live on the way it currently is, under Notepad++, so something you improve/augment would benefit from a new name to avoid confusion.

If you already have XML Tools installed, it may be listed on the Updates or Installed tab, instead.

Hello, @smart-warriors and All,

If we assume that the strings <a href= and </a> are, both, on one line, only, I suppose that the following regex does the job :

Open the Mark dialog ( Ctrl + M )

SEARCH (?s)<a href=.+?>\K.+?(?=</a>)

Possibly, check the Wrap around option

Select the Regular expression search mode

Click on the Mark All button

Then, click on the Copy Marked Text button

Open a new tab ( Ctrl + N )

Paste the clipboard’s contents ( Ctrl + V )

If all your <a href=.....>........</a> definitions are contained in a single line, you may use the more restrictive regex :

MARK (?-s)<a href=.+?>\K.+?(?=</a>)

Best Regards,

guy038

Hi, @stuart-benson, @terry-r, @alan-kilborn, @peterjones and All,

OK, I see… So, the best option is to use the @terry-r method, as there are several zones [.........] : per line :

Open the Mark dialog ( Ctrl + M )

Uncheck all box options

SEARCH (?-s)(?<=\x5B").*?(?="\x5D)     if you use regular quotes "

OR

SEARCH (?-s)(?<=\x5B“).*?(?=”\x5D)     if you use smart quotes “ and ”

Check the Purge for each search and Wrap around options

Select the Regular expression search mode

Click on the Mark All button

Click on the Copy Marked Text button

Open a new tab ( Ctrl + N )

Paste the clipboard’s contents ( Ctrl + V )

Voila !

You’ll get the expected text :

Hi, team. We’re looking at”,“our rush defense. Today’s session is going to”,“look at our outside alignment, and why that’s important”,“for a rush defense. OK team, what is an”,“outside alignment? The way you come up like”,“in the defensive line? How does it relate”,“to an opposition? Stand up on the far shoulder”,“from where the ball is. Most teams that”,“do a rush defense start on that outside”,“shoulder, why do you reckon? I think it requires”,“a lot of skill from the player”,“catching the ball to know what’s”,“going on that side if the ball is coming this way. So probably that’s why”,“it’s important to step on the far shoulder. Yeah, I like that. it makes that attacker”,“have to use far more skill. OK, men. So let’s just presume”,“I’m the attacker. We’ve got defender”,“1 and defender 2. So who’s your man, here? Who’s your man, Jay?

If your prefer join all these different lines into one line only :

Select all these resulting lines ( Ctrl + A )

Edit > Line Operations > Join Lines ( Ctrl + J )
