@Mehanik511

afaik, nothing builtin so far.
A possible solution might be using a scripting language plugin as shown here.

Oh… Tnx. I was not aware that it is so easy. :)
I downloaded ZIP version and it is working as expected.
Tnx!

Hi all!
Thank you very much for your support on this. I really appreciate your effort during the weekend.
I already tested with the Claudia’s script, and adding as well the start = 0 changes and deleting the [1:] and it works really great.
I just placed the { character at the beginning for sharing the content. No need to take it in consideration.
I have never worked with Python [I’m a PL/SQL and database developer], and now I’d like to try to make magic with it. The Claudia’s support was awesome to make the script work in Notepad++.
Thank you really so much again to you two, and happy coding!
=)

hello thanks for answer
i try also to learn
for claudia solution i have no error if i add (?-s)

like this
(?-s)(<a.?>)(*\x20)(.?</a>)

$1$3

without (?-s) or with (?s) i get errors in results

@guy038

I think the most important thing was the diagnosis, which you provided. [I had no idea from the original posting that it was going to end up being a typematic rate problem]. My addition was just a different way of doing it–I think most can adapt what I was saying into their own specific languages, regardless of what the exact text is.

@Claudia-Frank Thank you. Danke. Gracias. I’ll let you know how it works out.

I know Notepad++ is very complex. Is there any way to do this?

Yes, a script, e.g. python script, could do this BUT can we rely on your example data?
I mean, it is relatively easy to identify an url but getting the name part
of subdomain isn’t that easy.

So, does every subdomain follow your example?
This is hostname.sub.domain like www.translate.com?
Or could it be that you have also something like
http://x15w.sub.text.org/…
If the latter is the case, what should be used as the filename?
sub or text or sub.text or subtext or …

Claudia

good point, deserves an upvote :-)

Hello, @ty-ty,

Seemingly, Ty-Ty, you’re asking for three different points :

A : How to delete some structured data, located at each beginning of line ?

B : How to delete some structured data, located at each end of line ?

C : How to add a string at each end of line ?

Just note that the points B and C may be replaced with :

D : How to replace some structured data, at each end of line, by a literal string

So, let’s imagine your initial list, opened in Notepad++ :

*363780 willtall@gmail.com:xenogears *363781 kaansoulp@gmail.com:kaan1976 *363782 angelica.valila@gmail.com:pissis69 *363782 angelica.valila@gmail.com:pissis69 *363784 twsnyderman@yahoo.com:sdchbltmvp *363785 shaunamiekley@gmail.com:lfhs929 *363786 kynajo@gmail.com:jehovah1 *363787 stynrynn@gmail.com:satya96 *363788 haleyottley@gmail.com:haley0ttley *363789 pandemonium.jones@gmail.com:odder7471 *363790 marielle_koudijs@hotmail.com:Larissa18 *363791 robnoice@gmail.com:robtb303 *363792 willtall@gmail.com:xenogears *363793 kaansoulp@gmail.com:kaan1976 *363794 angelica.valila@gmail.com:pissis69 *363795 megsellig@gmail.com:bhyc9999 *363796 twsnyderman@yahoo.com:sdchbltmvp *363797 shaunamiekley@gmail.com:lfhs929 *363798 kynajo@gmail.com:jehovah1 *363799 stynrynn@gmail.com:satya96

Obviously, we can deduce that :

The part to delete, at the beginning, of each line ( Case A ) :

Begin by possible space characters, followed by a * symbol

Then followed by some digits ( 6 in our example ) and ends with possible space characters

The part to delete, at the end, of eech line ( Case B ) :

Begin with the unique colon of each line, followed by all the remaining characters of each line

So, to achieve point A :

Open the Replace dialog ( Ctrl + H )

Type in the regex ^\x20*\*\d+\x20*, in the Find what: zone

Leave the Replace with: zone EMPTY

Check the Wrap around and Regular expression options

Click on the Replace All button

Notes :

The ^ symbol means the beginning of line location

Then, the syntax \x20* represents a string, possibly empty, of space characters

The form \* try to match a literal star character. It must be escaped, due to its special meaning in regexes

And \d+ stands for a non-empty range of consecutive digits

Again, \x20* matches a string, possibly empty, of space characters, before each e-mail address

To achieve point B :

Open the Replace dialog ( Ctrl + H )

Type in the regex :.+, in the Find what: zone

Leave the Replace with: zone EMPTY

Check the Wrap around and Regular expression options

Click on the Replace All button

Notes :

First, the : matches a literal colon symbol

Then the syntax .+ represents any non-empty range of characters, located after the colon, till the end of each line

But, you may combine all these search-replacements, in an unique regex

Therefore, to achieve points A and D, at the same time, use the regexes, below :

SEARCH ^\x20*\*\d+\x20*|(:.+)

REPLACE ?1\x20\x20\x20\x20\x20\x20Love

Notes :

The search regex is just an alternative between the two regexes, discussed above

The second regex (:.+) is surrounded by round parentheses, to be stored as group 1

In replacement, the form ?1....... means :

If group 1 exists, just replace the colon and all text, located after, by six space characters, followed by Love

If group 1 does not exist, delete all text, before each e-mail address, as the ELSE part of this conditional replacement is absent !

So, after a click on the Replace All button, you should get the text below :

willtall@gmail.com Love kaansoulp@gmail.com Love angelica.valila@gmail.com Love angelica.valila@gmail.com Love twsnyderman@yahoo.com Love shaunamiekley@gmail.com Love kynajo@gmail.com Love stynrynn@gmail.com Love haleyottley@gmail.com Love pandemonium.jones@gmail.com Love marielle_koudijs@hotmail.com Love robnoice@gmail.com Love willtall@gmail.com Love kaansoulp@gmail.com Love angelica.valila@gmail.com Love megsellig@gmail.com Love twsnyderman@yahoo.com Love shaunamiekley@gmail.com Love kynajo@gmail.com Love stynrynn@gmail.com Love

Remark : In the regexes, you may type a single space character, instead of the \x20 syntax ! But, that later form just suppresses any ambiguity !

Best Regards,

guy038

You could also use the plugin https://sourceforge.net/projects/npptranslate/files/bin/Translate_3.1.1.0.zip, if getting translations from within N++ is your main focus.

Just tested it with some simple testfile. Works ok, if it is UTF-8, but after change of encoding to ANSI babylon causes a crash. I think this is not caused by N++ itself.

Also happens for the x64 version of N++:

I didn’t know we could choose to just show the whitespaces other than EOL characters. Solves half of my problem. Better than nothing.
“View Menu > Show Symbols > Show Whitespace and TAB”

Thanks a lot!

Thank you, looks so simple and elegant that makes me think where my “open minded” has gone.
Will try it.

Thanks Scott Sumner, that’s doing it fine.

@Doug-Skuce

I assume by “this” you mean a user-defined language definition for prolog. If that is correct, all you should need to do is select prolog from the language menu.

Once the user-defined language has been imported (or defined), then whenever you open a file in the editor having the file extension specified in the language’s definition, the file should be syntax highlighted automatically.

thanks scott works perfectly
