This takes me far and beyond and away further than I was before, thanks!!

Because even now you can use that front loaded dot as an anchor to do way more, like clean it up if no container (section) encapsulating it, and if there is I can S&R to put it on the front - even if it’s done by selecting at a time.

You’ve taken it far enough, thanks for your work!!

@Ekopalypse
Thank you for your help! what a pitty. (right now it is easier to just copy the code in between the working <php …)

@PeterJones

Ok apols for late reply to your original request on how the warning could be rewritten.

Some background - I used to work as a field sales tech consultant for a tier 1 global data storage manufacturer and so was well versed in getting beaten up on engagements, nearly always for things that I wasn’t directly responsible for, but hey you’re there and folks want to unload, and often with justification. We often ended up rewriting all sorts of customer docs, but also shipped cases of European beer for the devs.

It’s especially hard if you’re involved with data security or content creation, since any issues impact productivity in terms of wasted time and worst of all, potential loss of content or even the fear of the latter.

Other than the golden rule of Don’t Break Stuff, (and if you must then prepare everyone by explaining the heck out of it) the general themes were to consider your audience and the impact for all of them e.g.
Who – are the affected users
What – is the change
Why – is the change req’d
When - is the impact
Where - can you go for more info and on how to roll-back.

I’m sure folks will say this is all overkill, and it would be for a crappy new app that didn’t create content, but that isn’t the case here, and so there are expectations! 😉 Ok time to stop rambling.

On this particular change, I fell at the first fence i.e. I had no idea whether I was affected. Only a fool would conclude that they would not be affected if they didn’t understand the warning!

Now I see your reply is updated, so thanks for considering the issue! :-)

@mpheath
Thanks!
Checked! These fixes are included in version 8.6.6 (currently in the RC2 phase).

@X88R88 said in Remove lines between pasted content?:

Whats a way or a plugin to allow me to remove lines between pasted note content.

Take a look at the “Replacing in a specific zone of text” part of FAQ: Generic Regular Expression (regex) Formulas

@Thaoky , @mpheath ,

Thanks for confirming.

I submitted PR 15088

@mkupper ,

by default for new installations of Notepad++

That is what “default” means in the User Manual. I am not going to change every single mention of the word “default” to give the caveat, because there are a lot [citation needed] of default settings in the Manual.

@DimakSerpg ,

REGEX IN NOTEPAD++ IS THE WRONG TOOL FOR THIS JOB!

I created three sets of files:

100,000 7-digit numbers in each, where it will delete about 1/3 of the ones from source.txt 1,000,000 7-digit numbers in each, where it will delete about 1/2 of the ones from source.txt 10,000,000 9-digit numbers in each, where it will delete about 1/3 of the ones from source.txt

I started notepad++ -nosession -multiInst -noPlugin src1e5.txt del1e5.txt running on the regex for the smallest of those.
Then in another Notepad++ session, I spend about 10minutes coding up a script in Perl, and made sure it worked on the 100,000 line file in under a second. It then worked on the 1,000,000 line file in about 4 seconds. And then it processed the 10,000,000 line file in 4 minutes.

I then wrote up this post. By the time I was done with that, it still hadn’t finished running the regex in Notepad++.

If you can figure out how to decode that text box using Notepad++, and run a perl script (not in Notepad++), it’s yours, for free, no tech support provided. Good luck,

@PeterJones I had done the additional troubleshooting before I came back to this thread, so I hadn’t read your response before I figured it out. Sorry.

And the issue persisted even when I just had the three plugins from the debug info. Something probably related, but in light mode highlighting completely stopped working, at least visually (I could still copy text, just not see what I had just copied).

@Mr-Brunes said in Keyboard combo hosed config - how to recover:

The Q&A that I didn’t understand was https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/topic/20992/disable-all-notepad-keyboard-shortcuts?_=1714585277224 and I had no idea what Macro Express is nor how it affects NPP.

I had never heard of it when that person asked about its interface with Notepad++, either. It’s just some external application which sounded to me like it was similar to AutoHot Key in its behavior.

@X88R88

As a general option? No.
Npp itself tries its best to make the background and foreground color match, but fonts … not yet. A plugin author has to do that himself.

@Cansu-Bal
If all you wanted to do was insert some text (which is fixed, and doesn’t depend on any properties of the file) followed by a newline at the beginning of a file, you can do that using the Find/replace form, Find in files tab:
Find what: (?s)[^\r\n]*(\R)?.*
Replace with: some text(?1${1}:\r\n)${0}
Filter: *.txt (restrict to .txt files)
Directory: whatever directory you want to edit files in
In all subfolders: check if you want to edit all files in a directory’s tree, rather than just direct children of that directory.

If you’re new to this kind of thing, let me emphasize that you should always Always ALWAYS backup your files before doing a bulk find/replace.

Note that if you run this on a file with no newlines, it will insert a CRLF newline (\r\n in regular expressions) after some text. Otherwise, it will use the first newline found in the file.

If you want to do a find/replace operation on a file that uses the name of the file, you could use a plugin, but since you are doing this on a large number of files, this is a job for other tools, not for Notepad++.

@PeterJones Thank you for your comments and time.

‘Update 2’ seems to be like that. The OS on my PC is Win 10 (64-bit). I code with ‘Notepad++’ on my PC. In this state, problems seem to occur when I run ‘Virtual Box’ and code and compile with ‘Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0’ on Win 7 (32-bit) or Win XP.

I’d like to tell you what I just tested. Each time I save a file on VC++6.0 of Virtual Box, Notepad++ displays the same file name as many times as it has been saved.

@Ekopalypse said in [8.6.2] Display live console to work with Python script?:

then you can use quit() as long as you understand what it does.

Correction: this should actually read:

then you can use exit() as long as you understand what it does.

@Steve-Trevella

Have you looked at either of these?

CNC Gcode backplot/simulation plugin https://ncnetic.com/notepad-gcode-plugin

I don’t know if either of those is capable of reading the formats you use and then writing the data in the other formats you want to use.

I found the above links using Google for notepad++ cnc plugin as it seems what you are asking for is an editor that has the ability to “save-as” your drawing in various formats.

@Alan-Kilborn @mkupper Thank you very much everyone, {$0} did the trick! Pure gold for me, thanks again!

@Alan-Kilborn said in Как поменять цвет и размер шрифта уведомления в окне поиска?:

Or, it could be simpler and just use one color (currently the green, but to be made programmatic) for both.

I added a comment to Issue #9309 with my suggested ideas of either using colors from Tones, or having the colors choosable in Preferences > Searching .

I’m not hopeful that anything will ever come of that, but at least the suggestion is there.

@Alan-Stu

A couple of things:

How long are the lines you are dealing with? You mentioned “one line of contiguous text (no spaces)”. Is the line hundreds of millions to billions of characters long? Notepad++ v8.6.3 had a regression and so was deleted and replaced with v8.6.4. Regarding “this crash behaviour started approximately when Android Studio was updated to Hedgehog 2023.1.1 Patch 2.” You will need to get far more specific about how to reproduce the Notepad++ issue before we can determine that Notepad++ now crashes due to some update or change to Windows or other software.

I decided to re-test see if I can get something closer to your results.

I had two sets of test files.

The x series was created by multiplying the 100 characters ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuv resulting in a single long line. The y series was created by multiplying the 100 characters ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrst<cr><lf> resulting 98 character long lines that each use 100 bytes of disk storage.

For Notepad++ v8.6.5 (32-bit) running with -noPlugin the results are:

The x long line files open fine up to 100,000,000 bytes. At 200,000,000 bytes Notepad++ created a new tab for the file but never painted it. The ‘y’ short line files open fine up to 1,000,000,000 bytes. At 2,000,000,000 bytes I get a warning about Exception: File memory allocation failed with There is probably not enough contiguous free memory for the file being loaded by Notepad++ and the file fails to load. Notepad++ handles this more or less gracefully:

With Notepad++ v8.6.5 (64-bit) running with -noPlugin the results are:

The x long line files open fine up to 2,000,000,000 bytes and then allowed me to type a space and then <enter>. It’s getting ~slow~. At 3,000,000,000 bytes Notepad++ seemed to start loading the file but then vanished/exited few minutes later. The ‘y’ short line files open fine up to 10,000,000,000 bytes (100 million lines). I did not try with larger files as Notepad++ was fast and responsive. I have edited files in the 20gb range at times. We don’t know where the outer limits are.

It appears that when we have a file with a single long line of [A-Za-z] characters only that Notepad++ has issues. For v8.6.5 (32-bit) they started somewhere over 100 million characters and v8.6.5 (64-bit) allowed for long lines up to 2-billion characters and was crashing at 3-billion characters.
