    @Vasile-Caraus

    I second @Alan-Kilborn 's remarks, IMO you should no longer be considered a beginner. After the amount of questions you posted related to regular expressions and the answers you got based on goodwill of other community member(s) (i.e. @guy038), you’ve had plenty of time to learn the basics.

    There are lots of sites available for regular expression related questions specifically, to name some:

    Learn regular expressions the hard way Regular Expressions 101 Regular-Expressions.info (by RegexBuddy author/developer).

    Furthermore, one doesn’t have to be a programmer to learn and use regular expressions.

    A way without regular expressions you could bookmark each of the lines (use the mark tab on the find files dialog), then from the drop down menus use Search > Bookmark > Removed bookmarked lines.

    There is no transparent option. Even if you look in %appdata%\Notepad++\userDefineLang.xml where the settings are stored, all the styles specify bgColor=[something]. I experimented with removing it but Notepad corrected it with bgColor=“FFFFFF”

    Create a UTF-8 document with some “word” data in it. For example, copy-n-paste the content of this posting.

    Get to the Find dialog’s Replace tab:

    Find what: \w Replace with: \x20 Search mode: Regular expression Wrap around: checked Uncheck all other checkboxes on Replace tab.

    Press the Replace button one or more times. Each press replaces a word character with a single space character.

    @Vasile-Caraus

    I can understand why \r would work in place of \R for non-Unix files in a FIND operation, but I would not use \r in place of \R in a REPLACE operation for Windows files. Truly, however, \R works fine in my extensive experience with it, and something else must be wrong in your situation.

    \W and \K have no relation at all, and if indeed it works somehow in your specific application, it is sheer coincidence.

    What troubles me is that you are making blanket statements such as you did, without any supporting information. So perhaps people read this thread in the future and they start mistrusting \R or \K unnecessarily.

    Can you post some understandable examples of real text where \R and \K do not work right? Just saying “this doesn’t work” without more information is not helpful. I know it takes work to find specific examples and then put them together into a clear, coherent post that really seems to demonstrate a problem…but I don’t see any way around that for this case. Let’s either prove that \R and \K have issues, or let’s disprove it.

    @hianghokung Okay. I was unable to save the setting in Preferences > Default Directory > “Use new style save dialog (without file extension feature)” while using 7.3.1. When closing and opening Notepad++ the checkbox would reappear. Downgrading to 7.3.0 resolved this issue.

    As for being unable to open text files, this was an issue with Preferences > MISC. I had set the “session file ext.:”/“Workspace file ext.:” to “txt” while I was troubleshooting the issue.

    Thanks again for your help.

    See https://htmlpreview.github.io/?https://github.com/bruderstein/nppPluginManager/blob/master/doc/index.html#install
    , unfortunately still version 1.3.5 is bundled with n++ 7.3.1 instead of current 1.4.3 of PM which causes some troubles.

    Thank you for your excellent support!
    Your suggestions definitely solves my problem and there is no need to have this feature implemented in N++.

    @Claudia-Frank That’s right, but before digging deeper I would like to get an answer from @Dan-Soper , what exactly he needs to know.

    Hello,
    Just to thank you all :)

    It seems @Scott-Summer was right and the issue came from the install through plugin manager. I did it again manually and now the script is working. I will use it as a base and I will probably do some adjustments.

    Cheers,
    Bruno

    You might also want to turn on current-line highlighting. See Settings (menu) -> Preferences -> Editing -> Enable current-line highlighting.

    Even if your caret was hard to see after Claudia’s suggestion (which it won’t be), this would help narrow down its location. :-)

    that is url standard encoding. Spaces needs to be percent escaped.
    See https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986#page-12 for more information.

    Same result or different result but not solved.
    By any change - could you upload the xml for testing?
    Or create one which shows the behavior.

    @Dave-Lafontaine

    To obtain help here, you need to be able to write a coherent, understandable question. Yours makes little if any sense. If you work in the computer security realm, I hope you put more care into that work than you did with your post. I also hope you rephrase your inquiry, because there are people here that can and will help, if they can understand what you need.
