Hi, @anthony-noriega, @alan-kilborn, @terry-r and All,

Oh, yes, Alan. You’re right ! Of course, I already downloaded the portable v7.9.1 version but I’m still “stuck” with the v7.8.5 version which explains why I didn"t notice this recent enhancement !

So, thanks to @scott-sumner, we just have to use the (?-s)/\.\*\K(.+?)(?=\.\*/) regex, click on the Mark All button to get all the keywords and, then, click on the Copy Marked Text button and paste the results on a new document. Nice !

@Vasile-Caraus said in Save Session/Load Session + Toggle Bookmark DOESN'T WORK:

Please fix it.

it’s not about me, it is about improving a software

It seems odd that someone who has been around the forum enough to post 275 times doesn’t know the proper PROCEDURE for filing a bug report.

If you end up going that route, be sure to heed my advice from earlier, in your report:

How about being thorough and presenting a small, completely reproduceable example

Thanks for the reply. The odd thing is that it doesn’t always trigger. It seems to go funky for a few days and then return to normal. It may be a layout thing in my source code or a particular file structure that’s tripping it up. But it’s working today, so it’s back on the shelf for now!

@Sam-0

I would guess that File menu’s Save Session and Load Session might be useful to you, and probably the Session Manager plugin deserves a look as well.

@Hugo-Alves

You might want to be a bit more specific about what the “same problem” is, after all, this thread is a bit old and several things were discussed above.

Also, while 7.8.6 isn’t “ancient” by any means, maybe try something more recent?

@PeterJones No worries, it’s not like it’s difficult to associate .md with Notepad++ myself. I was just curious.

@Moises-Napoles said in UDL: Help with lua.:

I wanted to edit the notepad++ lua file but changes that I make on the file doesn’t reflect on notepad++

If you want to just add keywords, just use the Style Configurator … it’s easier that way.

if you insist on editing the config file manually, you need to understand and follow the sequence in https://npp-user-manual.org/docs/config-files/#editing-configuration-files, or use a different editor to edit the config file (while Notepad++ is not running).

@PeterJones said in JavaScript autocompletion function parameters not defined in javascript.xml:

:

These api-files can serve as a base for built-in help for language methods. If someone thread will fill them in and make the interface in the form of a tree and a text field.
alt text
And I would make a plugin with this interface.
There is only one detail: not everyone understands English and it is desirable to distribute api files to directories with translations.
Like “Api \ ru”, “Api \ fr”, etc.

@Terry-R

Thx, I had to look this up but no, no DP port. Maybe it is time to invest
in a new system but … I’m a scrooge …

@chamisso-chen said in How to enable a new FunctionList?:

Not only the function definition will be shown, but also the invoking position is shown as well.

IIRC, that is a known issue with no current resolution.

@PeterJones

I think OP is talking about the version of NppExport that ships with Notepad++ releases. He’d like to see the newer version actually included there.

Of course, it begs the (related) question of why any plugins actually come bundled with N++. Seems unnecessary, to me.

@PeterJones Thank you Peter! Have a blessed day

@Alan-Kilborn

Thank you so much.

This will save me a lot of time.

Yes, it is a time!!
Thanks so much…

Make a bugs category on these forums.

Read the FAQ category and you will SEE THIS.

Similar discussion relating to the original topic here is continued IN-THIS-THREAD …

@sumit-Kumar-bhardwaj

There is a plugin that can help you doing what you want. It is listed as NppNetNote in official Notepad++ plugin list. Unfortunately it is only available as 32 bit version, so you need to use Notepad++ as 32 bit version as well.

You can install the plugin by navigating to (menu) Plugins -> Plugins Admin and select NppNetNote from the list of available plugins. However, after Notepad++ has been restarted you will find it listed as NppDocShare in the Plugins menu. Please note: You need to install the plugin on both of your computers.

The plugin installs a single menu entry and a toolbar button related to it. Clicking on them opens a panel with the plugin’s UI. On one of your computers you need to click the Serve button. The Windows firewall will pop up a dialog to allow inbound network access for notepad++.exe (the hosting process of the plugin’s DLL file) and maybe a User Account Control (UAC) dialog as well, which you have to confirm both. On your other computer you have to click the Connect button. After the Status field shows Connected you can enter text into the active tab of Notepad++ on one computer and the characters will appear simultanously in the active tab of Notepad++ on the other computer. Please note: Only these Notepad++ tabs are synched between the two computers that were the active ones when establishing the connection.

@JasonJDooley ,

\AppData\Local\Notepad++

Please note, even if you assume the correct prefix to the path, that’s the wrong AppData folder. Notepad++ settings go in %AppData%\Notepad++, which as explained in the FAQ maps to ...\users\username\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++, not to ...AppData\Local\Notepad++ or ...AppData\Notepad++.

But that’s neither here nor there, because Notepad++ grabs the XML from the executable directory’s localization folder, and copies it to the right place in the %AppData% hierarchy.

So, really, the process you described should work.

When I have spanish.xml in the localization\ subdir of my Notepad++ executable directory, and pick Español from the localization dropdown, the UI immediately changes to Spanish; if I look at %AppData%\Notepad++\nativeLang.xml, I can see that it’s picked the Español contents. When I change localization back to English, I see the UI change back; and File > Reload from Disk will refresh the viewed contents of nativeLang.xml, showing them to be English again.

I am wondering if you don’t have write permission to the %AppData%\Notepad++\ directory in general or the %AppData%\Notepad++\nativeLang.xml file specifically.

@Alan-Kilborn said in Is there a shortcut for starting search in different search modes, e.g. normal and regex search mode?:

Make them anything you like.

Thank you, for the explanation I will definitly try it out and let you know how it worked for me!
