Thanks Dail you have been super helpful! :)

Hello @Matt-Grice,

but the scroll bar is visible isn’t it? Did you try resizing npp to a slightly smaller size and see if this help?
Unfortunattely I don’t have such an environment to test myself.

Hello @Chirag-Jangid,

and solution for the Explorer might be to create the shortcut yourself.
Press F5 (I assume you didn’t reassign this shortcut) or use Run->Run
and put it

explorer.exe $(CURRENT_DIRECTORY)

press save it, give it a meaningful name and assign the accelerator(shortcut)

@DaveyD, thx for helping out ;-)

Cheers
Claudia

@dail,

Thank you very much.
Am I not right in officially adding “Sherlock Holmes” to Claudia’s name?
You must be impressed as well, aren’t you?

Hello @Richard-Landén,

either by using a different theme or by modifying the existing one.

Settings->Style Configurator

use global styles and global override if it should be set to all languages
or select one particular language.
If global background color should be used click enable global background color
But be aware that coloring of languages are different so it could be that you need to
tweak different other parts to see everything clear.

Cheers

Hello @guy038,

well, to be honest, I never tried it - I hope Thomas understood that I was talking about normal searches.
I should have mentioned it more clearly, for sure.

Hello @Chirag-Jangid,

In settings->preferences->misc you can specify the extension yourself
but yes, in save dialog you have to add the extension.

Hello @Jose-Cunha,

you can use UDL (Language->Define your language) to create the syntax highlighting and create an api.xml
(check …\plugins\APIs\php.xml for more information) to get the hints on a function etc…

Hello @manjunath-v.s

I assume you disabled Settings->Preferences->Backup->enable session snapshot and preiodic update.
But be be aware that it comes with a drawback as reported by a few users.

Hello @Zdzislaw-Twardy,

afaik this isn’t possible as it is a fixed dialog but if it is related to programming languages only then
you should already get e.g. the powershell script extension selected, of course only if the lexer has been selected.

Hello @AL-Hasan-Haj-Asaad

Mac platform still a big problem

there are different possibilities to run notepad++ on a mac (not natively but it is possible)
A) run npp within a vm -> parallels support windows
B) use software like winebottles to run npp on mac

I don’t know why does not a big program such NPP++ support this platform _?

npp uses windows api heavily and os’s like osx and linux do have different api,
so in order to support those os’s you need to either provide three different versions
or introduce an additional layer which abstracts each os api with the benefit to slow
down npp execution.

In regards to your question,
is a bit of a hack and works only if char is added.
What needs to be done first is described here

The script itself

import winsound soundfile = "C:\Windows\Media\chimes.wav" def callback_CHARADDED(args): winsound.PlaySound(soundfile, winsound.SND_FILENAME) editor.clearCallbacks([SCINTILLANOTIFICATION.CHARADDED]) editor.callback(callback_CHARADDED, [SCINTILLANOTIFICATION.CHARADDED])

Of course you need to change the path to the soundfile.

I’m using Notepad++, Thank you I got it now, I forgot to put the style in the styles directory, it works fine now! Thank you so much!

Hello Harry,

I’m the one, who posted this reply to Clearinghouse Forsale, three months ago, about ! Refer to the link below :

https://notepad-plus-plus.org/community/topic/10848/need-some-help-with-find-and-replace/3

And indeed, reading again this old post, I just realize that I didn’t pay enough attention to the line :

now as you see, i have alot of lines that state begin…type tree…age ##### end

So, the replacement should occur, ONLY IF the lines contain the word Tree, before the word Age !

In that case, just change the search regex as :

Tree .* Age \K.+(?= END$)

REMARKS :

There a space, BEFORE and AFTER the words Tree and Age, and a space BEFORE the last word END !

I also added the $ symbol, to be sure that we search for the word END, at the very end of each line

NOTES :

This time, the search regex is looking, FIRST, for any text, in a same line, between a first occurrence of the word Tree and a last occurrence of the word Age ( Tree .* Age )

Due to the \K form, this previous match is, then, forgotten by the regex engine

Next, it tries to match a non empty list of characters (.+)

But, ONLY IF that list is followed with a space and the word END, which ends the current line ( (?= END$) ). So it selects the exact number, only, between the word Age and the keyword END !

Best Regards,

guy038

Thanks Claudia,

It didn’t take long to learn you were the go-to guru around here.
