Hello, @Rana-jawad,

An equivalent regex to the Scott’s one would be :

SEARCH (?-s)(?<=\|).*

REPLACE Leave EMPTY !

Notes :

The first part (?-s) is a modifier, which forces the regex engine to interpret the dot regex character as standing for any single standard character ( not End of Line characters )

The last part .* tries to match any range, even empty, of standard characters

The middle part (?<=\|) is a positive look-behind, that is to say a condition which must be true for an overall match

This condition implies that the matched range of characters must be preceded by a literal vertical bar ( | ), which have to be escaped with an \, because the | character is the regex symbol for alternation

And, due to the empty replacement box, this range of characters, located after the | character, is simply deleted

However, just note that, with my regex or Scott regex, if some of your lines contains several | characters, any text after the first | character, will be deleted. For instance, the text, below :

string1 | string2 | string3 string4001 | string2668 | string1234 string201 | string202 | string203

would be changed into this one :

string1 | string4001 | string201 |

What I did was to use the Logitech SetPoint software to set the function key to ‘Launch a Program’

OK, I guess this doesn’t work as long as the SetPoint program hasn’t a functionality to communicate with explorer/shell objects.

I guess what I need is a way to access the name of the currently selected file from the command line.

I didn’t use it myself but maybe AutoIt (or similar sw) might be helpful in such a case.
Afaik AutoIt has the possibility to work with COM objects, if so it should be possible
to get the running explorer and shell instance and get the selected file.

Cheers

npp uses the file extension to decide which lexer(language) should be used.
In your situation it looks like this extension is bound to BaanC.
In order to change this you can either use Settings->StyleConfigurator
and then remove from BaanC and add to HTML lexer or (in case it’s the default extension)
edit langs.xml file directly.

@Alan-Kilborn said:

how to make hitting a simple “print” statement in a script also re-show a currently hidden PS console window

If you don’t mind changing your print statements into print() function calls, you should be able to adapt the technique shown here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/550470/overload-print-python

into something like this (put it in startup.py):

from __future__ import print_function import __builtin__ def print(*args, **kwargs): notepad.runPluginCommand('Python Script', 'Show Console') return __builtin__.print(*args, **kwargs)

…could be a bit redundant, running the show-console command, even when already shown…

Thank you so much!!! this solved my problem

Would like the feature to be merely a check box or option in preferences to save all before run.
One option would be to just have it as an option when you are saving a run command where you get to name it and set an accelerator for the shortcut.

Below is ver info…
Notepad++ v7.4.2 (64-bit)
Build time : Jun 18 2017 - 23:38:43

OS : Windows 10 (64-bit)

A quick search for endless space assets file format led me to a github issue on unpacking/repacking asset files, with a mention of Endless Space, so this “Disunity” tool might be able to extract readable information from the asset file.

Most likely (ie, I don’t know how Unity or Endless Space do it, but this is my guess based on the Disunity page), the asset bundle is a binary-encoded and/or compressed data file.

Notepad++ is a text editor. (Yes, it’s possible to look at more than text, and if someone were to write a plugin-wrapper for disunity or write a plugin that duplicates the functionality of disunity, you might be able to use Notepad++… but if it’s not a text file, it’s not in Notepad++'s mainstream use case.)

Without a dedicated plugin, or using the results of a tool like Disunity to convert the file to text before editing: You could using the HEX Editor plugin for Notepad++ (download thru plugin manager), and might be able to edit the non-text data directly, but you’d have to do the interpreting of the individual bytes yourself. (And the last time I tried, HEX Editor was pretty buggy/crashy; your results may vary.)

I coded the program afresh and noted where the error was coming from. Thanks for any assistance.

menu Run->Run
type cmd
press Run button

@Scott-Sumner, @dail

Thx for the hint and alternatives. Actually I thought it is a buffer setting but gave it a try
and have to confirm it isn’t. But it is a per editor attribute which means, we have to set
editor1 and editor2 from within startup.py

editor1.setWhitespaceSize(4) editor2.setWhitespaceSize(4)

You could try adding “.” as an operator.

@Bruno-Vincent

do you look for some automatism or are you looking for column mode?
If the first is the case we need to have more details about the real data it the latter
is the case, click with the mouse to the first position, press SHIFT+ALT and while still pressing
click with the mouse the end position. Then do simple CTRL+X and CTRL+V

Apparently my transfer protocol changed. Correcting this setting resolved the issue.
