@henry-mosley See this.

@peterjones , THANK YOU for the reply. Now, every time I upgrade, I am careful to empty the checkbox on the last dialog that would let me “open notepad++”. I just ask the install to finish without re-opening the app. With this workaround is enough. Thanks again. Marcelo

Hello, @omar-salamah, @peterjones and All, @omar-salamah : Actually, here is your goal : You have a first File1.xml file containing N pure blank lines You have a second File2.xml file, below, containing M non-empty lines, with M <= N <nominal>8</nominal> <min>4</min> <nominal>3</nominal> <min>1</min> <nominal>2</nominal> <min>1</min> <nominal>0</nominal> <min>0</min> <nominal>0</nominal> <min>0</min> <nominal>5</nominal> <min>4</min> <nominal>0</nominal> <min>0</min> <nominal>0</nominal> <min>0</min> <nominal>3</nominal> <min>1</min> <nominal>3</nominal> <min>1</min> <nominal>2</nominal> <min>1</min> <nominal>10</nominal> <min>8</min> <nominal>0</nominal> <min>0</min> <nominal>3</nominal> <min>1</min> <nominal>0</nominal> And each non-empty line of File2.xml must replace the next pure empty line of File1.xml ! The @peterjones’s python script, of course, works correctly using the minimal layout of File2.xml, too Best Regards, guy038

@PeterJones thanks. I understand now the DECODE. Notepad++ -> Menu -> Plugins -> Mime Tools -> Base64 Decode Thanks for solution @guy038

Thank you for your insight. I added a PR for my other “wishes”.

@myles-carpeneto You might benefit from this.

@peterjones Thank you. Will try that.

@mpheath said in how to run my python script using (pythonscript for npp) to multiple opened files: from Npp import * def forEachFile(): for file in notepad.getFiles(): notepad.activateBufferID(file[1]) notepad.getCurrentFilename() editor.rereplace(‘unit_reward_per_km: ([0-9]+)’, times_2) notepad.save() def times_2(m): return 'unit_reward_per_km: ’ + str(int(m.group(1)) * 2) forEachFile() Yea i copied alot to help myself out and it worked in one so i had to be close the printname was just something that was in a piece of code :P and forgot to remove it when i posted it here . Thank you !

@peterjones , Learning something every day. :)

@niels_bigger I am happy now after adding the languages via MS Office :-) [image: 1648853899486-43445af2-41af-446d-9c08-b7e35bd6a12c-image.png] [image: 1648853724933-e8c71278-cae6-4038-8205-d0eeeeae313a-image.png]

@alij2022 said in Add a new text: is there a way to indent the line as well like making it appear on the same line as the first one, with indentation? Sure, you can add in some spaces or tabs after the \r\n; for a tab character you can use \t.

This was turned into a real issue HERE. I posted a PythonScript solution there.

@åke-göransson Yes, see the user manual HERE. You want to use the filepath part.

@bernard This seems like the same issue reported with Notepad++ v7.9.2 (64-bit): #9433 Autocomplete makes notepad++ unable to keep up with typing. an empty (context menu?) box flash for a second I have submitted a Pull Request to fix: #11460 Fix autocomplete may show empty list.

@peterjones Thanks, Yes, that helped, but in any case, I have 2 UDL-s loaded in the tool, and every time I change the npp theme, I need to run the keyboard shortcut in order to change the UDL. I thought the script will automatically change the UDL based on the Dark/Light mode of NPP. But in any case, your suggestions were very helpful. Thanks. I figured the PythonScript plugin out.

Great, this helps a lot. Thanks :-)

@neculai-i-fantanaru said in Recording: How can I change the regex operations in MACRO?: The location of shortcuts.xml is That isn’t an absolute. Maybe for you it is, but it depends upon your setup. If you look at your Debug Info… (on the ? main menu), example: Local Conf mode : OFF then yes it is in %APPDATA%\Notepad++. but if it says: Local Conf mode : ON then it is in the same folder as notepad++.exe. Also, there is more info on “appdata” HERE … I should have pointed that out before.

@lycan-thrope said in FunctionList issues: removing the ^ allowed the two ‘Object’ lines to be found @Pat-Sinclair , with @Lycan-Thrope’s suggestion, it might match a line that says SomethingElse_OBJECT_Here that you don’t want it to match. if I were changing your expression to work with OBJECT_IndentedSomething, I would actually change it to mainExpr="^\h*OBJECT.*", which will still anchor to the beginning of line, but allows whitespace (spaces and tabs) between the beginning of the line and the OBJECT. This prevents anything but whitespace to be between the beginning of the line and the OBJECT,which I think is what you want.

@juan-flavio-orozco said in Deleting all even-numbered lines an something more?: It would not complicate me so much, I would place myself at the beginning of the first line with the time, I would start recording a “macro”. Already recording the macro; holding the “shift” key you would press the “end” key and then (without releasing “shift”) once the “right” (→) key, release “shift” and press “Delete”. So just a note on this technique: It doesn’t “protect” your data. If you accidentally start the macro on the wrong line, you will operate (delete) the wrong data. With the replacement approach using regular expressions, only data that matches the proper pattern will be removed.
