After moving to the next bookmark, you need to click on the down arrow, and then everything turns out as I need.
It’s a pity that it’s not possible to write all this into a macro, the macro does not see the operation with the plugin))

@Alan-Kilborn said in How to reduce number to keystrokes for finding and replacing word?:

not sure why Eko pointed you to “Using Modify Shortcut/Delete Command from Run menu

Same window, different tab - came first to my mind.
No special intention. :-)

@Jonathan-Russell

what can be styled or not is defined by the lexer, which means you
cannot add some random tokens to an existing lexer configuration.
In order to be able to treat your forwardslashes you must either

write your own lexer write your own user defined language (menu language->define your language…) or use a scripting language like PythonScript to tweak the builtin lexers or UDLs.

Each of them have their pro and cons and which one fits your requirements depends on your knowledge about programming
and the will for implementation.

Works like a charm… :)

Thanks a lot!

N++ does have a clipboard history feature built in and I wonder if that was conflicting with X-ming hook into the clipboard which enabled clipboard sharing between regular windows and x-sever applications.

I’m using Ditto now on recommendation from @dinkumoil with no I’ll affects.

Cheers.

Why doesn’t your very first line get modified in your “I need” section?

@DandyDonnyDon

Since your “Here’s the XML source code” and your “here’s what I need” are identical, it is totally unclear what you want to achieve.

Maybe this was caused by interpreting and re-formating your posting by the forum software. To avoid this the forum supports Markdown in postings. With its help it is possible to post code in a way the forum doesn’t interpret and re-format.

You can find a code formatting button in the toolbar above the input box for postings. >>> This page <<< provides a deeper insight of the markdown syntax used by this forum.

@Melanie-Niedfeld

It is possible by activating extended search mode and using escape sequences for line breaks (CrLf):

When will my question be moderated?

It already is, see >>> here <<<.

@PeterJones Thank you! You understood me. Turning off the auto-completion, did it :)
Regards the ‘blinking’: Every word and letter I typed caused the popup to come up or changed it. I like things to hold still, on my screen.

What the heck!

@throw-away said in How do I change how notepad++ handles opening and storing files?:

So how do I make notepad++ behave just like normal notepad? … I do not want notepad++ to keep my files open or remember my files when I close them.

Turn off the session feature:

How do I tell notepad to always open all files with a specific language?

In Style Configurator you can add to every lexer user defined file name extensions which should be opened with that lexer:

@Lody-J-Claessen

I get, that npp is running but only the icon disappeared from the taskbar while currently active, right?
Can you post your debug-info, which is available from the last menu, the ? menu?
Can you describe a little bit in more detail what exactly you are doing?
I’m not familiar with reload script …, how is this relevant? Is this something how you start normally npp?
Or something you do within npp, if so what exactly is supposed to happen?

A picture is worth a thousand words.

Hint: Synchronize … ;-)

It depends on what your “compiler” means by “ANSI character set”.

If it means Windows-1252, looking at the charcter set in that encoding, there are no Polish or Russian characters. This is the encoding that will be used if you Encoding > Convert To ANSI in Notepad++. If it means “one of the many 8-bit Windows code pages”, some of them have Polish or Russian characters, some don’t; none of them are compatible with each other, and you have to have some way of telling the compiler which code patge is being used.

My guess is that whatever language you are using that requires an 8-bit character set (“ANSI” of either flavor) has a mechanism for escaping unicode characters inside its strings, rather than typing the character directly. For example, in C, if you cannot type "Ж", you can use "\u0416" to get that unicode character. If your language/compiler is code-page aware, there may be a way to set it, and use something like "\x##" inside your string, with whatever code point is that character in that specific code page.

But none of these are directly Notepad++ related (ie, it’s a problem that is the same, no matter what text editor you use for editing your source code). Basically, if your compiler requires only 8-bit characters (and won’t accept an encoding like UTF-8 which uses multiple bytes to encode one character for code points above 127), then you need to learn in your language/compiler how to encode/escape characters that aren’t in its native character set, and that’s not something we can help you with.

Once you have the details of how to escape those characters in your string, together with a list of the likely characters that you’d need to convert, we might be able to help you with a sequence of Notepad++ search-and-replace and file-encoding-changes that will be able to convert the file to the right encoding and the fancy characters to the right string-escapes. It all depends on how many different characters you need, how many files you have, and the syntax of the escapes in your language.

Assuming your data is nicely balanced, always occurring in these pairs:

Search for (\d\d:\d\d:\d\d:\d\d)\R(\d\d:\d\d:\d\d:\d\d) and replace with \1 --> \2 and set your search mode to regular expression.

@Michael-Vincent Version 0.30, 32-bit, does not work for me, Npp 7.7 on Windows 10 . However, updating to Npp7.8.1 does allow Nppexport to work. So no problem here, but other users may want to update.

Hi, @peterjones, and All,

It necessary to point out that, in Notepad++, the \G assertion, in addition to the very end of the previous search, also matches :

The very beginning of the subject text ( obvious )

Any new location, deliberately created by the user, by moving the present caret location to an other one, between two clicks on the Replace button, when possible !

Cheers,
