Apparently, this is indeed a Scintilla issue. I found via Google search, a feature request thread titled “Fold { on relevant line”.
https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/feature-requests/8/?page=0

Note that this request is request number eight (8) and the date is fifteen (15) years ago! When an open request in a list currently numbering in four digits is numbered with a single digit, you can probably deduce no solution is likely anytime soon.

Seems to me the only general solution for scintilla is to trigger fold start on the list of “foldable” language structures, and base fold ends on a multiline regex pattern that encompasses the language syntax definition of the structure. (That is, the one the language parser understands)

Hello Νικόλαος Κερασιώτης,

If so, just refer to the post, below :

https://notepad-plus-plus.org/community/topic/12490/i-want-to-keep-only-unique-lines/2

This post shows TWO methods :

A first one which does not keep the original order of the lines

A second one, much longer, but that will keep the original order of the lines

From what you replied to Scott, I suppose that the cases B) or C), in METHOD 1 section should be convenient to you :-))

Best Regards

Thanks for your replay, your solution works. That’s the exactly answer what I want.

I’ve already added Python Script as an add-on to my Notepad++ editor and have written a few scripts to automate some editing tasks. Now I want to add a module where I can declare, instantiate and use constants in my projects. I found a solution for this which is a simple module/class, but doesn’t specify where this should be stored so that all my Python Script projects can include/import this.

Isn’t there a default folder where extensions/modules/classes should be stored?

Any help on this subject will greatly appreciated.

Nolan

Thanks a lot :-)

Language refers to programming languages and if you select one,
than the current document gets colored based on the programming language specifics.

Encoding refers to byte representation of text. A simple text, as written like
the one I’m typing right now, can be saved differently. An editor needs to know
this in advance to show the characters correctly.
Npp uses mozillas chardet library to find out how the text is saved and which codec
needs to be used to decode the file to show the proper characters.
But because of the problem that most codecs share multiple characters
npp (correctly, chardet library) might identify the wrong codec and therefore you have the menu to set it manually to the right one.
Or you can use it to convert it to another codec.

@infoalisaa

the reason why asking for the file is because I assume that it
isn’t an ascii tilde but something else.
Why do you assume it must be a tilde?
Because some other app is showing it like that?
Can you create such a file with this app and upload it?

Sorry to say but IMO this is like asking your car dealer for help on fixing the bumps in the road on the way to your destination!

I think you will have a higher chance of finding help in a forum/community related to Trove.

To do what? Are you using xml tools? If so, this combination refers to validate now
but your data isn’t xml!!

Well, it appears that i have to convert the hole text with Arabic presentation form-b coding in order to achieve what I want, luckly I found a tool to do that for me, also i have to reverse the text RTL, which is not hard to do.

You can use the “copy bookmarked line” function. Then copy in a new buffer and do what you need to do.

Hey, I have found the answer. 中文版：“设置”–>“首选项”–>“备份”–“记住…”复选框处取消打勾；in English, “setting”–>“preference”–>“back up”–"remember…"cancel the tick in the check box. BTW, I am the 7.2 version. It may be some difference in other software version.
