@NemoNobobyPersonne

Are you trying to tell us that you are just getting around to following up on an issue you opened 16 months ago?

@정태곤

Sorry, but hard to understand what your issue is.
Could you please explain a little bit more precisely
what works and when not?

Too much time and nothing works as expected, results in gifs and gifs and even more gifs :-)

@PeterJones Awesome! Thank you
I forgot to do Regular Expression

Thank you for the quick reply

@Aadil-Sohail ,

I am going to take a wild guess (though you weren’t very clear in your original post), since you included the Notepad++ specific shortcuts.xml reference, that you are editing your website code (assumed HTML) in Notepad++, and used Run > Launch In Chrome to view your website in a browser.

I am further going to assume that you named your file blah rather than blah.html, because then Chrome would have no reason in the world to assume that the underlying bytes were meant to be html, and would thus show you the raw source code, rather than rendering the HTML. I am going to assume that Microsoft, in their Edge browser, like in many other Microsoft products, assumes it knows better than the user what should really happen, and ignores the filetype, and instead guesses at the “real” filetype, even when you pass it a file with no extension

Fortunately, if I am right, Notepad++ will be very useful, because it will show the full file path, including directory, name, and extension, in the title bar (unless you have set Settings > Preferences > MISC to enable Show only filename in title bar as described in the official preferences documentation – if so, disable that). Or you can hover over the tab name, and the full path, name, and extension will be shown. If I am right, use File > Rename to fix the name to actually include .html in the name.

I could be wrong, however, because you gave us next to nothing to go on. Or Alan could be right, and you were actually asking an HTML/webcoding question rather than asking a question specific to Notepad++.

But I’m hoping that my wild guess is right, and I’ve been able to help you, despite your lack of information. Or that, at the very least, it will encourage you to provide more information so that we can help you. (Though if it’s an HTML question, Alan is right, and this isn’t the right place)

Hello, @John-slee,

Ah, of course, if you want to capture part(s) of the regex, needed in replacement, you need to surround these parts with parentheses. In that case we have to change the non-capturing group (?s:.+?) into a capturing group, with the in-line modifier inside so the new syntax ((?s).+?)

So the final regex would be :

SEARCH (?-s)(^==.+\R)((?s).+?)(?===|\Z)

with two groups :

The header line with its EOL ( group 1 )

The subsequent lines of each block, with their line-breaks ( group 2 )

However, as you said :

so that it captures the Header line (without the EndofLine)

This final regex should be :

SEARCH (?-s)(^==.+)\R((?s).+?)(?===|\Z)

Best Regards

@Sarah-Duong said in Remove duplicate lines in separate files:

This is really difficult for me.

Well, you have presented quite a significant problem, mainly due to the size. The actual process (as I’ve outlined previously) is not difficult, but given the number and size of the files the solution will take some effort by you to complete.

So do you want a solution in the Windows environment or were you considering the Linux solution in which case this thread (collection of posts) can close?

You say the average filesize is 200000 lines, if we suggest an average of 18 (you said 5 to 30 characters per line) characters per line this makes an average filesize of 3.6MB. I haven’t personally worked on a file of this size, however I’m sure NPP is capable of filesizes much larger. It can depend upon the environment such as whether NPP used is 32bit or 64bit, and whether you have additional plugins loaded.

I still think it will only be possible to use NPP is the files are broken down into groups which will mean sorting each file first and breaking them apart by the first 1 or 2 characters. Then processing each group separately.

Please advise whether you still want to consider this approach, we (on the forum) can help you, but be aware it will be a lengthy job.

Hi, @garbage-gold, @astrosofista, @alan-kilborn and All,

Again, I would use a combination of regex S/R and the column Editor feature !

So, from the input text, below :

358 293 866 511 58 767 562 644 163 569 414 305 973 16 692 128 353 1000 870 58 535

Using the following regex S/R :

SEARCH (?-s)^(.+)\R(.+)\R(.+)

REPLACE @@@@\1\t\2\t\3

we get the text, with words separated by a TAB char :

@@@@358 293 866 @@@@511 58 767 @@@@562 644 163 @@@@569 414 305 @@@@973 16 692 @@@@128 353 1000 @@@@870 58 535

Now, place the caret after the two first @ characters of the first line

And using the column editor ( Alt + C ) and inserting a list of numbers, beginning with 1, we obtain :

@@1@@358 293 866 @@2@@511 58 767 @@3@@562 644 163 @@4@@569 414 305 @@5@@973 16 692 @@6@@128 353 1000 @@7@@870 58 535

Finally, using the simple S/R :

SEARCH \t

REPLACE \r\n ( or \n only for Unix files )

You’ll have your expected text :

@@1@@358 293 866 @@2@@511 58 767 @@3@@562 644 163 @@4@@569 414 305 @@5@@973 16 692 @@6@@128 353 1000 @@7@@870 58 535

Hello, @garbage-gold, @astrosofista and All,

Of course, regexes cannot perform, generally, mathematical operations, but we can cheat a bit !

First, open the Replace dialog

SEARCH (?<=\d)\R ( or (?<=\w)\R if your text contains words instead of numbers )

REPLACE \t

If necessary, tick the Wrap around option

Select the Regular expression search mode

Click on the Replace All button

=> Your text in changed as below, with a TAB char between each word :

358 293 commit; 866 511 commit; 58 767 commit; 562 644 commit; 163 569 commit; 414 305 commit;

Notes

This regex S/R looks for any EOL character(s), which is/are preceded with a number ( (?<=\d) ) ( or a word if (?<=\w) )

And replaces it with a tabulation character ( \t )

Now, put the caret at the end of the first line

Open the column editor ( Alt + C )

Select Number to Insert

Type in 1 in all the zones

If necessary, tick the Leading zeros option

Click on the OK button

Remove additional numbers on possible empty lines, at the end of the list

You should get :

358 293 commit;1 866 511 commit;2 58 767 commit;3 562 644 commit;4 163 569 commit;5 414 305 commit;6

Finally, perform the last regex S/R, below :

SEARCH \t

REPLACE \r\n ( or \n only for Unix files )

Here is your expected text :

358 293 commit;1 866 511 commit;2 58 767 commit;3 562 644 commit;4 163 569 commit;5 414 305 commit;6

Et voilà !

Best Regards,

@Terry-R Thank you. I tried the way you suggested and it worked.

@Martin-X said in Regex plese help - how to remove every 2nd and 3rd:

So i want to use one regex command to delete second and third line and “Login:”

I will give you some guidance. If you look at @Alan-Kilborn regex you will see the line that is written back is enclosed in brackets in the Find What line. The replace with line is \1 which is how we write back that information within the bracket. By changing the contents of the bracket (essentially moving the bracket to the right) you will change what the regex keeps.
Also note that you may have overlooked the space in the line you want to keep, now removing the front portion, so keep that in mind when editing his regex.

@vsrawat said in Where does autoupdator stores download install file?:

Anything wrong in the question?

Well, I ASSUME, that it is hard to answer this question
Why didn’t it install automatically?

Where did it store the downloaded installation file

According to the source in your TEMP directory.

Please be more specific, give clear examples, provide screenshots. There is no information to even try to guess what the issue is that you are having.

@richlux said in Different indicator for unsaved Tabs:

I would need to make the changes every time I upgraded Notepad++.

True; it’s called “patching”. :-)
But unlike most patching, it doesn’t require rebuilding the source code.
Plus AFAIK Resource Hacker has a command line way of doing things, in addition to its GUI, so it could be relatively painless to have truly personalized tab bar icons!

I might try it just to see what it would look like.

Additional prototypes of acceptable solutions would be good I’m sure.

I feel stupid now!
I had this problem a few weeks ago, noted I had the problem and couldn’t fix it, but didn’t note the solution I eventually found until somewhat later in my notes. So just in case anyone else has the same issue:

I copied the “c:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\plugins\ZenCoding-Python\ZenCodingPython” directory to “c:\Users\Steve\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++\plugins\Config” I think I must have found the clue in one of the installation instructions I found via Google. I guess in an ideal world the plugin manager would have done that for me of given me a hint, but I got there in the end.

I said,

have parentheses (acos(x)), you need Prefix Mode enabled

Sorry; something felt odd about that, so I did more experimenting. If you followed that advice, and had a third function defined multiarg, which would be used like multiarg(a, b, c) in your code, only the multiarg(a, would be highlighted, which would be just weird. The right way to handle parentheses: turn off the Prefix Mode (don’t need it anymore); go to the Operators & Delimiters; here, you have two choices:

if you want the parens highlighted, but the stuff between not highlighted, then put ( and ) inside the Operators 1 box (space-separated list). It would then render like the following (where I chose green as the style):
95c0cf03-2de4-4f73-a188-085120836cbc-image.png
See that the function names are red, the parens are green, and the args are default (black) if you want the parens and the stuff between highlighted instead, then choose an unused Delimiter # style (I chose #1 and set it to Blue), with Open = ( and Close = ). This will show up as:
24deabab-0fd6-42a7-a28c-804da559dfcb-image.png
See that the function name is still red, the parens and arguments and commas are blue.

The Prefix Mode setting would allow you to write something like open in the list, and every function that started with open, like openFile, openDoor, and openSesame would all be highlighted with that one entry of open.

@Jose-Manuel-Vericat-Della said in Collapsing uncollapsing parts of code:

convoluted and not very practical

Don’t knock it until you try it. At least 3 people have upvoted my suggestion. It can’t be that bad. :-)

do not know if the development team can introduce a new setting as “stop uncollapsing” or something similar per every instance

This seems to be where you are placing your hopes.
That’s probably not the best plan.
One-off needs are not usually put into a general-purpose product.
But, if you’d like, you can make a feature request by following the instructions here: https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/topic/15741/faq-desk-feature-request-or-bug-report

I’ll continue to put up with the full uncollapsed code in the second…

That seems silly, unless you’ve actually tried my proposal and it doesn’t work, or you’ve tried it and you don’t like it for some other reason.
It’s your life. :-)

@MAPJe71

Dear MAPJe71,

thank you for the excellent solution.
It worked perfectly right out-of-the-box and does exactly what I was looking for.

Thanks again and best regards
Martin
