Thanks.

@Ronald-Dupas ,
You haven’t defined your chosen browser that you want to use, so minus that information, very little factual help can be provided. However, if you are wanting to use the Firefox Browser, the below pic will show you want you’re looking for there, by clicking Settings->Applications and choose the file type you want opened by default by the Notepad++ application, click the right menu selection, and then select Use other... and browse to your chosen application.

@cchalkiopoulos said in Greek capital letter 'Α punctuated does not appear correctly:

That is a very detailed answer. For sure you have covered all angles of this issue.

Your 2 suggestions make sense to me and I have actually tried the 1st one and it works fine for me to change the encoding to Greek/Windows-1253.

From my side it is totally fine to mark this thread as being resolved.
I’m however very curious to the fact that you do not consider this as a bug on Notepad++.
I will try to phrase this as follows: “A certain file is displayed correctly with Notepad but with Notepadd++”. Isn’t this fixable?

Many thanks for your time.
Honest regards,
Christos C.

Thanks.

@Duck said in Updating removed all my recent files?:

Is this intended, and is there any way to restore said files?

No it is NOT intended, however with any system there can be issues.

Unfortunately you have fallen victim to using the default backup system without understanding how it actually operates. Many have suffered the same issue as you and in almost every case all we can recommend you do is read the FAQ post Periodic Backup vs AutoSave Plugin. In there is information on where any possible backup files might be.

If you are really lucky it will just be that the session.xml file which has been cleared. If so then the backup files will likely still exist. Read that post, it will explain it all.

Please also heed the recommendations made there. If you learn anything at all (even if your critical files are lost) it is that you need to set what type of backup system you will use in future and understand the processes going on.

Hello, @david-l,

But, regarding the two last cases :

amounts 1234 and 4567 amount A1A1

do they need to be followed with a space or dot character as well ?

Remember: regular expressions are a school of precision ! Each character and its position has its importance !

Best Regards,

Amazing. The man answers your question in a straight forward and informative manner, and you read ''annoyed" in it? Wow, you’ve shown super powers of wokeness. Moving on. Downgrading post.
And yes, that was a conveyed “annoyed” response on my part.

@PeterJones Okey, I will try to implement what you said.
Thank you very much.

Thank you very much Mark and Guy for taking the time to answer my request. It is really appreciated!

Have a nice evening

@Antonio-Guerriero ,

You just want it to be “any token that ends in a : should be considered a LABEL”? Yeah, the User Defined Language lexer isn’t designed to be that complicated: it is intended for a specific list of keywords

The EnhanceAnyLexer plugin will allow you to add a regex to change the foreground of matching text on a per language (per UDL, or per builtin lexer). Assuming that the LABEL has to be the first non-whitespace sequence on a line, and must be only alphanumeric-and-underscore-before-:, then the following should make your LABEL green.

[your_udl_name_here] 0x00CC00 = ^\h*\w+:

@Pavel__A ,

“base” Notepad++ has no problem with File > Reload From Disk. The symptoms you have described are almost definitely related to the HEX-Edit plugin, not Notepad++ itself. You can try to put in an issue here, but there are a lot of open issues on that plugin, and I won’t guarantee that it will be fixed. (The release history over the last few years seems to focus mostly on “crashes”, not any new features or minor bug improvements.)

@guy038 said in Looking for string search that includes the & mnemonic:

I noticed that the search is a non-sensitive search

If you wanted a “sensitive” search you could add (?-i) to the start(s) of the expressions you input at the prompt.

@gendalv said in Search for a list of strings in another file.:

although I had to figure out how to actually run a python script in np++, ended up installing PythonScript plugin, which is also not obvious, how to add a script to, but, after some fiddling

You could have found quicker answers had you consulted this site’s FAQ entry for : How to install and run a script in PythonScript

@Alan-Kilborn thank you for this clear answer.

@PeterJones Thanks!! This really quite the perfect write-up. Top results off Google and 20 min later, I have icons for “Set Language to SQL” and “Set Language to XML.”

The PytonScript was a little wonky with allowing me to set the icon. It seemed committed to .bmp or .ico files rather than .png. Ok – found those alternatives. But each time I tried to load them, it just didn’t work. But hey – that’s more the plug-in…

Your solution worked like a charm! Thank you!

@Mark-Olson said in remove correlative text from multiple lines:

try using \s

And note that \h is often better than \s.
\s will match end-of-line characters which isn’t always what people expect.

@Alan-Kilborn you’re right! Haha. Sorry about that, I’m just finding how regular expressions work (and I’m loving it, even though it’s hard to learn all by oneself)… so I’m sorry if sometimes my questions are more or less repetitive -.-’

@Michael-Vincent said in “Intellisense” suggesting wrong words:

@Petr-Demuth said in “Intellisense” suggesting wrong words:

Notepad++ v8.4.8 (64-bit)

That’s the problem. If you want the behavior we are seeing, upgrade to 8.5 or newer.

On a fresh 8.4.8 portable, I observe the same behavior as you do.

Cheers.

Kudos!
Now works OK :)

@Jason-Burnett:

I try to collapse one sub_fld, it collapses the parent element

I don’t know…works for me correctly, with N++ 8.5:

I guess if it doesn’t work for you, you’ll have to demo something about exactly what it is doing for you.

@Mes-E-M said in Snaphot not work with Plugin !?:

How can a Plugin interfere with periodic autosave?

The Notepad++ API changes so does the underlying Scintilla API - so it could be any number of things.

What old version of Notepad++ did it work on?

Where is the code to your plugin?

Cheers.
