    @Doc-John said in Sorting broken with v7.8.9 update?:

    As for examples, I haven’t been able to sort any of dozens of files, including lists of only numbers, so take your pick.

    This is an idiotic statement.
    YOU are the one that needs help.
    You’d think you’d bend over backwards to provide even the simplest example and show how it doesn’t work for you.
    Sheesh.

    @Matthew-Plueard said in How do i move decimal points over using "Ctrl+h" Replace with function?:

    move the decimal point over by 2 spaces for each number value

    You will need to be a bit more precise in your explanation. Move can go either left or right.

    So an excerpt from your file:

    (2, 'Work Jeans', '12.00', '6.00'), (3, 'Orange Hoodie', '15.00', '7.50'), (6, 'Military Magazine', '1200.00', '600.00'), (7, 'Military Suppressor', '100.00', '50.00'), (8, 'Vertical Grip', '200.00', '100.00'),

    I assume you’d probably want to go right, it makes more sense (cents) to do so, although I’m not going to provide any solution until you can be precise.

    In fact with regards the examples I provided from your file, can you provide the result you expect?

    When inserting the examples into your post, enter them first, then highlight all the example lines and hit the </> button immediately above the window in which you are typing. They will then appear in the black box as I did.

    i fixed it manually. i noticed my installation has a userDefinedLang folder which contains the default Markup language settings in an XML file, but I also have a separate userDefinedLang XML file which contains my customized languages.

    once i fixed it i can see the settings in the XML file i also made a copy on network drive and can see the same formatting in that XML as well.

    not sure how i lost the other one but at least i know how to troubleshoot if it happens again.

    thanks for the attention

    @lidia-lidia ,

    That has nothing to do with Notepad++. Whatever editor you use to type your HTML+JavaScript, the browser will treat it the same.

    There might be new security settings on Edge and/or Firefox (and/or Chrome) which allow local JavaScript or not. But that becomes a question for experts in your browser of choice, not for experts in your editor of choice. I highly recommend finding a forum for your browser, and asking there why the same HTML+JavaScript will work on the remote online server, but won’t work when you try to render a local copy of the page.

    Ah, never mind. There was an issue with the theme symlink, which when corrected fixed everything. Not sure how that caused an error with the stylers.xml file - that symlink was just fine - but it went away, just the same.

    Thanks guys.

    Yes, this is my first time using regular expressions and it’s going to take me some time to understand it.

    This will get me started though.

    Thanks

    @Dan-McGovern ,

    As far as I know, you cannot call plugin features from the command line.

    However, I seem to remember some earlier discussion about the topic… search, search. There it is: on April 18, @Ekopalypse described a way to provide user parameters to a plugin. He shows an example of using PythonScript to parse the Notepad++ command-line options. Once you know the user parameter was set on the command line in PythonScript, you can use its capabilities to call features of the Compare plugin (or any other plugin).

    Hi @David-Swarthout, All:

    Let me suggest you to take a look at AHK’s Editors forum, where you can find some resources as UDLs, Syntax Highlight, a tool to run a script or a selection directly from Notepad++ —can’t live without it—, another one to expand parameters for AHK’s functions, commands and directives, and more.

    Have fun!

    @[username redacted] said in Why is it that some regex match is not replaced one by one?:

    I wonder if I could open the document and remember the last scroll position so next time I reopen it, it straight nagivgates to where it was.

    You may find THIS to be of interest on that topic. There’s a Pythonscript there that supposedly solves this “problem”. I haven’t tried the script out yet, so I can’t fully endorse it. It’s on my evergrowing “TODO” list. :-)

    @Alan-Kilborn THANK YOU. “Follow current document” is working much better. I can now have many document open and they will always suggest the same save directory that I’ve been using.

    I guess I was just confused by 3 save directory options. Some how the other two options seemed more like the behavior above; and to me the words “follow the current document” seems to indicate that each document would be separated to it’s own manually-selected save folder.

    Some how the words of those settings have me seeing them as the opposite of what they really do.

    Why the manually set single directory option (option 3) doesn’t work? I don’t know - but problem solved as far as I’m concerned.
