When saving, save name[dot], E.g. xxx. and file will be named xxx rather than xxx.txt.

[CORRECTED LINK]…here’s the link…

word is a reference to Microsoft Word. Notepad++ is not a word processor!

There is, however, an old HTML editor of the 1990s: Arachnophilia. I still use it, as it adds tags for me (e.g. select text, then press Ctrl+I to emphasize). I copy-and-paste from Word, for example, to Arachnophilia: the formatting is preserved. Then, when I see bold text, I simply select the text in Arachnophilia and press Ctrl+B, etc.

Maybe Claudia can write such a useful plug-in.
“Plug it in, plug it in!” is a popular ad for air fresheners on American TV.

Peace be with you and this community!

Thanks for the help. Here is a simple parser for MooTools. I’ll expand it as I become more familiar with PCRE.

<association id= "mootools_syntax" langID="19" /> <parser displayName="MooTools" id ="mootools_syntax" commentExpr="(?s:/\*.*?\*/)|(?m-s://.*?$)" > <classRange mainExpr ="(^var[\t\x20]+[A-Za-z_]\w*\s*\=\s*\{|(\bvar)?[\t\x20]+[A-Za-z_]\w*\s*\=\s*new\s+[A-Za-z_]\w*\s*\(\s*\{)" openSymbole ="\{" closeSymbole="\}" > <className> <nameExpr expr="[\t\x20]+[A-Za-z_]\w*" /> <nameExpr expr="[A-Za-z_]\w*" /> </className> <function mainExpr="^[\t\x20]+\w+[\t\x20]*\:[\t\x20]*function" > <functionName> <funcNameExpr expr="[\t\x20]+\w+" /> <funcNameExpr expr="\w+" /> </functionName> </function> </classRange> <function mainExpr="((^|\s+|[;\}\.])([A-Za-z_]\w*\.)*[A-Za-z_]\w*\s*[=:]|^|[\s;\}]+)\s*function(\s+[A-Za-z_]?\w*\s*\([^\)\(]*\)|\([^\)\(]*\))[\n\s]*\{" > <functionName> <nameExpr expr="[A-Za-z_]\w*\s*[=:]|[A-Za-z_]?\w*\s*\(" /> <nameExpr expr="[A-Za-z_]?\w*" /> </functionName> <className> <nameExpr expr="([A-Za-z_]\w*\.)*[A-Za-z_]\w*\." /> <nameExpr expr="([A-Za-z_]\w*\.)*[A-Za-z_]\w*" /> </className> </function> </parser>

I don’t know PL1, but if it has any type of preprocessing ability like C does, you could do something like this:

#define procend end

and then use “procend” in your code. This is not ideal, I admit.

Otherwise, I think you have to define all the statement N’s you might use as the beginning of some fold (Open:) and add the corresponding number of “end” statements to end the fold (Close:). That is, you can have multiple Open:, Middle: and Close: tokens; just make sure they are in the correct order (first Close: goes with the first Open:, etc.).

You are my new ‘Rock Star!’ That worked exactly like i needed it to!!! Thanks a million!

i think that i shall read the regex links before to try python :-)
still thanks guy, your way to copy a block was really great for me

Problem solved…
In the settings menu added default program

Проблемма решена…
В меню настроек добавил программы по умолчанию

Thank you man it worked! You came clutch for me. :)

Hi Claudia,
that works perfect !! many thx :-)
feedback: if you make changes before running the modified macro
