@guy038 said: \x20"\1"\x20 Nice! This was exactly what I was looking for, thank you very much

Found it. To add an extension to a style go to "style configurator / Java (in my case) down the bottom it has a box for add extensions. John

@Jason-Christ works for me - your config.xml isn’t write protected isn’t it? Cheers Claudia

@mat-m the question would be what installation in your case means. You could use one of the zips, extract it add the plugins needed rezip it or not and do your rollout. Cheers Claudia

@BigTX-Nutz Would it be possible to add this feature to NP++?? I would think so but I assume you get a better chance to follow this. Cheers Claudia

Notepad++ does not save directly into zipfiles. But Windows has the “Add To Zip” functionality, or you could use a separate program, like 7-zip; either one will quite simply put a file into a zip so you can submit it for your class. (How to get your homework to your professor seems like a very good question to ask your professor.)

I repaired it by simply copying the whole code and saving it on another file in a place where I’m sure nothing like this will ever happen again. Sorry for taking up your time.

Hello, @FriendOfFred, and All, I can confirm that, after assigning shortcuts to the SCI_STUTTEREDPAGEUP and the SCI_STUTTEREDPAGEDOWN Scintilla commands, the "UP movement does not act as expected :-(( I, personally, use a local 7.5.6 version of N++, on a Win XP SP3 old laptop. Unfortunately, we do not dispose of any other “Page” command than the default ones and the “stutter” ones. I don’t think that this behaviour depends on N++ and probably, the best would be to report this bug to SCIntilla : https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/bugs/ You could also test the SCIntilla based text editor, named SciTE : https://www.scintilla.org/SciTE.html However, I don’t know if that text editor can manage shortcuts assignments in order to test the “STUTTER” commands ! Best Regards, guy038

Turns out that this was because the files were read-only. I was counting on the Perforce Plugin to automatically check them out but I guess that is not going to work. I will have to manually checkout everything and then perform the replacement.

Ugh! … not another baking cookies question…

Hello, @gabor-szakacs, @scott-sumner, and All, Indeed, Scott, I thought about capturing \R ! But, as my regex have two alternatives, when it matches \h+\R, the group 2 ( = \R ), in the first alternative does not exist. Thus, I need to capture \R in the second alternative, too ( group 3 ) So : SEARCH (\h*(\R)){3,}|\h+(\R) REPLACE (?1\2\2:\3) And, of course, the conditional replacement rewrites : Two line-breaks \2\2, if the first alternative is found One line-break \3, if the second alternative is found However, to my mind, this second syntax does not look as elegant as my previous one ;-)) Cheers, guy038 BTW, my previous regex S/R may be slightly shortened as : SEARCH (\h*\R){3,}|\h+\R REPLACE \r\n?1\r\n ( or \n?1\n on UNIX files )
