Hello, @elise-baribault and All,

Not difficult with regular expressions !

Open the Mark dialog ( Ctrl+ M )

SEARCH (?-si)^EL[:;]\x20\K\d+(?=\R.+\RABNORMAL PROGRAM STOP$)

Tick the three options Bookmark line, Purge for each search and Wrap around

Un-tick all other box 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 contents ( Ctrl + V )

Et voilà !

After clicking on the Mark All button you may, either :

Right-click into the bookmark margin and choose the Copy bookmarked Lines option

Use the menu option Search > Bookmark > Copy Bookmarked Lines

Best Regards

Ok, I checked with the original Obsidian.xml and it works now.
Although the Lua block is the same, this strange behavior still exists. (They are only differences in other languages or maybe because of Global Style).
If anyone wants to further investigate, I would upload the files here, but I can’t.

Anyway, thank you for the help.

Hello, @Nathan-heath, @peterjones, @alan-kilborn, @astrosofista and All,

Here is my contribution, which merge the two regex S/R in one S/R only :

SEARCH (?-i)^(?!Double|$)|^Double\h

Replace Double_

So, from your example :

Double Infuse with Vitality; Double Inkling Summoning; Double Kasmina Enigma Sage;//Kasmina comma Double Killian Ink Duelist;//Killian comma Double Lorehold Apprentice; Double Lorehold Command; Double Lorehold Excavation; Double Lorehold Pledgemage; Double Maelstrom Muse; Double Magma Opus; Double Make Your Mark; Double Manifestation Sage; Double Moldering Karok; Double Mortality Spear; Double Needlethorn Drake; Double Oggyar Battle-Seer; Double Owlin Shieldmage; Double Pest Summoning; Double Practical Research; Prismari Apprentice; Prismari Command; Prismari Pledgemage; Quandrix Apprentice; Quandrix Command; Quandrix Cultivator; Quandrix Pledgemage; Quintorius Field Historian; Radiant Scrollwielder; Reconstruct History; Relic Sloth; Returned Pastcaller; Rip Apart; Rise of Extus; Rootha Mercurial Artist; Rushed Rebirth; Shadewing Laureate; Shadrix Silverquill; Silverquill Apprentice; Silverquill Command; Silverquill Pledgemage; Silverquill Silencer; Spectacle Mage; Spirit Summoning; Spiteful Squad; Square Up; Stonebound Mentor; Tanazir Quandrix; Teach by Example; Tend the Pests; Thrilling Discovery; Vanishing Verse; Velomachus Lorehold; Venerable Warsinger; Witherbloom Apprentice; Witherbloom Command; Witherbloom Pledgemage;

You should get the expected output :

Double_Magma Opus; Double_Make Your Mark; Double_Manifestation Sage; Double_Moldering Karok; Double_Mortality Spear; Double_Needlethorn Drake; Double_Oggyar Battle-Seer; Double_Owlin Shieldmage; Double_Pest Summoning; Double_Practical Research; Double_Prismari Apprentice; Double_Prismari Command; Double_Prismari Pledgemage; Double_Quandrix Apprentice; Double_Quandrix Command; Double_Quandrix Cultivator; Double_Quandrix Pledgemage; Double_Quintorius Field Historian; Double_Radiant Scrollwielder; Double_Reconstruct History; Double_Relic Sloth; Double_Returned Pastcaller; Double_Rip Apart; Double_Rise of Extus; Double_Rootha Mercurial Artist; Double_Rushed Rebirth; Double_Shadewing Laureate; Double_Shadrix Silverquill; Double_Silverquill Apprentice; Double_Silverquill Command; Double_Silverquill Pledgemage; Double_Silverquill Silencer; Double_Spectacle Mage; Double_Spirit Summoning; Double_Spiteful Squad; Double_Square Up; Double_Stonebound Mentor; Double_Tanazir Quandrix; Double_Teach by Example; Double_Tend the Pests; Double_Thrilling Discovery; Double_Vanishing Verse; Double_Velomachus Lorehold; Double_Venerable Warsinger; Double_Witherbloom Apprentice; Double_Witherbloom Command; Double_Witherbloom Pledgemage;

In addition, if you re-run this regex S/R, nothing else is matched and replaced. Nice, isn’t it ?

Hello, @james-norton, @alan-kilborn, @terry-r and All,

BTW, note that there’s an important difference between :

To search for IPV4 addresses, in a file containing valid IVP4 addresses, only

To search for valid IPV4 addresses, in a file which may contain some non valid IPV4 addresses !

In the first case, as the @terry-r’s solution, simply use the almost obvious regex \b(\d{1,3}\.){3}\d{1,3}\b

In the second cas, use one of the two regexes, below :

(25[0-5]|2[0-4]\d|1\d\d|[1-9]?\d)(*FAIL)|\b((?1)\.){3}(?1)\b

(?(DEFINE)(25[0-5]|2[0-4]\d|1\d\d|[1-9]?\d))\b((?1)\.){3}(?1)\b

Notes :

In the first regex, once the part (25[0-5]|2[0-4]\d|1\d\d|[1-9]?\d) is stored as group 1, the (*FAIL) control verb discards this match but this regex part can be re-used with the syntax (?1). Then, the second alternative \b((?1)\.){3}(?1)\b does match a valid IPV4 address !

The second regex uses a special conditional syntax with the key expression (DEFINE). which stores, as above, the part 25[0-5]|2[0-4]\d|1\d\d|[1-9]?\d, between parentheses, but which is never matched, by definition. So the effective regex is just the part \b((?1)\.){3}(?1)\b, coming next, which match valid IPV4 addresses only

All,

See also my in-development expressions for generic logic “gates” in regular expressions: AND, OR, XOR, NOR, NAND

Some day, they might get a blog post all of their own, rather than be buried in that thread. But they are still in-development, so they’ll stay there for now.

@PeterJones lol! great repsonse. ill look into the jN plugin

@I-neuw said in regex replace syntax:

What am I missing?

Well, it could be anything, as we don’t know what P++ is, maybe you meant to say NPP or Notepad++.
A regex I’d use would be
Find What:\x20
Replace With:\n

But then be aware that a \n is not normal for a windows text file. Windows uses \r and \n normally. Unix and Mac use one of them each (different ones).

Possibly showing a bit more detail and examples if possible of what you saw when trying to do the replacement might help us to understand what could have gone wrong.

I’ll try to get around to bug reporting this.

It looks like someone did report this as issue#10007 – given the example screenshot, I’m assuming it’s the same person, despite the different username.

That’s mine, yes.

@Kirill-Nudelman ,

Doesn’t a normal Search > Replace, Find What = ., Replace with = _, Search Mode = Normal do that? It does for me.

@PeterJones
I have my final search string, thanks to you sir! In order for the search to distinguish if it’s missing the “Slots” entry, I have to searched from "Range: to “Job:”

Search:
(Range: \d)+(\s*)(?!Slots: \d+)(\s*)Jobs:$
Replace:
\1 \r\n\tSlots: 4 \r\n\tJobs:

thanks @guy038

@Terry-R said in Question About Formatting:

For getting an exact copy use the windows explorer function to make a copy which will be a clone. However since it appears you are trying to alter settings so your app will be customised to your needs, using Notepad++ to perform edits on this file will very likely end in abject failure.

Okay, that makes sense! Thank you for the information about binary files!

In addition to @PeterJones ’ answers see https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/topic/19480/faq-desk-function-list-basics

@Ben-Robertshawe

There is also a solution without using regular expression searches.

Open the Find dialog box and navigate to register Mark. Enter your search tag in Find what. Tick option Bookmark line. You may also tick options Purge for each search and Wrap around. Furthermore tick option Normal in Search mode group box. Click on button Mark All. Navigate to (menu) Search -> Bookmark and click on submenu entry Remove Bookmarked Lines.

I found a solution that works with PowerShell, that will replace all lines with the canonical link tag:

$sourcedir = "C:\Folder1\" $resultsdir = "C:\Folder1\" Get-ChildItem -Path $sourcedir -Filter *.html | ForEach-Object { $content = Get-Content -Path $_.FullName -Raw $replaceValue = (Select-String -InputObject $content -Pattern '(?<=<link rel="canonical" href=").+(?=" />)').Matches.Value $content = $content -replace 'https:\/\/.+.html',$replaceValue Set-Content -Path $resultsdir\$($_.name) $content }

@PeterJones Thank you, it worked perfectly.

go to proxy configuration and delete 0.0.0.0

Although it also occurs when I use a fresh portable version. The files are relatively small XML files. It is especially visible in the document map. It only occurs when the »Word wrap« option is enabled, but then also on another (powerful) PC.

Uncheck “In selection” worked for me

@mere-human

That’s it - thanks very much!
