Thank you for reply.

@Luiza-Henriques

Perhaps it would help if you would fully show the text behind your Preferences window? As from what I can see of it, EVERYTHING is underlined and that is not right.

Links should be enabled by default, without you having to change any settings.

@VAVoices

Does this also happen if you are using npp without plugins installed? Can be tested by using the -noPlugin command line switch.

99% solved, final resume:

As usual, there where different issues, complementing each other - from the software and from me …

the current user has no admin-rights, so there is the usual problem of admin versus user there was the 32bit of NP++ installed; the update to 64bit did not reset all registry-settings of 32bit I checked the HKLM-settings and thought that this will overwrite the user-settings: my fault, existing user settings stayed alive there where user settings for “.re” which linked to “re_auto_file” which linked to inactive x86-start-commands

Now I cleaned up all x86-values to current links, and this enabled the command “Open with … - select Standard application …” again. Now a double-click on .VVA and .RE opens it with NP++

The last “1% cosmetic unsolved” for both file types is that the icon in Explorer is smaller than the standard icon and the file-description is not “Notepad++ Document”.

Thanks to all posters for advice!

@gstavi said in search and highlight 2 or more words with different colors:

In what way does this improve over right click -> Style token?

It really doesn’t. :-)
Except that you don’t have to find an occurrence (by hand or search) of your “token” first, in order to rclick it.
The script is really just a demo that someone could build something related upon.
I can’t see someone typing all those “tokens” very often…

It really makes way more sense to use a UDL for such a purpose (OP’s original “log analysis”). And that was my first suggestion to OP.

But everyone has their own workflow.
And their own likes, dislikes, and "I want"s.

@guy038
Thank you for your hard work. :)

@PeterJones,
Thank you! I was sure there had to be a way to do this. I was hoping to avoid using something outside UDL, but I’m glad to know there is a way to deal with this. Gonna take look at it.

Hope this helps somebody

I don’t think it is going to, as it seems to be mostly complaints rather than helpful info. :-(

@Patrik-Spacek said in Show a list of same words before replacement:

a nice advanced addition to notepad++

Sounds like a job for a plugin.
But just for that simple function, a little script serves well.
But if a potential plugin added a bunch of analysis features, of which a histogram is just one…well, that would be valuable.

My friend already coded all I need (in 20mins) and works perfectly, its compiled separately, but works great. (not in python)

Sounds like overkill, but when one has to sponge off of a friend’s good will, you get what you get.

@PeterJones Sorry, it was inadvertently saved to a JSON file.

I am not going to bother replying directly to the original poster anymore, because he obviously doesn’t like my help.

However, for future readers, there was a factual error above: unlike what was said, DSpellCheck can and will replace “barry” with “Barry” or “allen” with “Allen”:

8651f959-3666-44ff-8125-80b6897e54e9-image.png

You have the choice of replacing it one time by selecting the top Allen in the replacement. Or you can go down to Replace All "allen" with > and select Allen from that menu, where every occurrence of the word will be replaced.

Hopefully this will counteract any misconceptions caused by reading certain posts in this thread.

@PeterJones I totally read that but didn’t realize the machine I’m using was out of date!

@Javier-Rivas I have been able to achieve my objext using notepad++ although it is quite inelegant.

I have a folder with 1000 text files, which I duplicated. I then renamed them with a suffix 000.txt -> 999.txt

Each file has a unique first line, with a name and number, and all I did was do a search and replace to add in an extra zero and change the _001 to _0001

It will give me a unique first line, but will be a little more messy when combine with the other folder – but will work for what I am after.

Thanks for your help!! Most appreciates.

PS I know I’ve done it before, and it’s driving me nuts that I don’t remember how or where I found it…

@tommick1

Although I also recommend switching to utf8 encoding, there is a plugin called AutoCodepage that I think may be helpful in your case.

@Chaithra-Gururaj

How exactly did you start the process.
From what you posted, it looks like there is no space between python and new1.py.

Полагаю, вы имеете в виду информацию о сеансе.
В зависимости от того, как была выполнена предыдущая установка, вы все равно сможете найти ее под %APPDATA%\notepad++\backup.

I assume you mean the session information.
Depending on how your previous installation was, you may still be able to find it under %APPDATA%\notepad++\backup.

Hello, @gh-2017, @peterjones, @terry-r and All,

@gh-2017 :

I tried your batch file with few simplifications and it worked nice ! Thanks for sharing !

Now, here is a more simple version of what you expect to, which uses a tiny executable file, named mtrw.exe ( Instructions in comments )

“XY problem”

“XY problem” ? I made it and in this way you doubted. Any questions more ?

Hello, @ekopalypse and @guy038
Thank you very much for the quick response.
The Solution provided by @guy038 completely solves the problem and now I can write anything in my language.
So nice of you @guy038 to provide the solution with other research outputs that will further help us for using it effectively.
with regards
