Solved the problem by returning Windows to its original state with the removal of programs

Probably you need to play a bit with
Menu Settings > Preferences > Multi-Instance & Date > Multi-instance settings
and see the option that best fits your needs.

Tiny improvement (IMO) for bullet list: now it only copies spaces, no punctuation:

from Npp import editor, SCINTILLANOTIFICATION import re class NA(object): def __init__(self): self.eol = ['\r\n', '\r', '\n'][editor.getEOLMode()] editor.callback(self.callback_sci_CHARADDED, [SCINTILLANOTIFICATION.CHARADDED]) def callback_sci_CHARADDED(self, args): if chr(args['ch']) == self.eol[-1]: caret_pos = editor.getCurrentPos() curr_line_num = editor.lineFromPosition(caret_pos) if curr_line_num > 0: prev_line = editor.getLine(curr_line_num - 1) m = re.match(r'\s*(\d+)([^\w\r\n]+)', prev_line) if m: full = str(m.group(1)) + str(m.group(2)) full_prev = prev_line.rstrip('\r\n') if (len(full_prev) > len(full)): # if m: prev_number = int(m.group(1)) symbols_after = m.group(2) new_number = prev_number + 1 text_to_insert = str(new_number) + symbols_after editor.insertText(caret_pos, text_to_insert) new_caret_pos = caret_pos + len(text_to_insert) editor.setEmptySelection(new_caret_pos) return m = re.match(r'\s*(\+)([\s*]+)', prev_line) if m: full = str(m.group(1)) + str(m.group(2)) full_prev = prev_line.rstrip('\r\n') if (len(full_prev) > len(full)): # if m: bullet = m.group(1) symbols_after = m.group(2) text_to_insert = bullet + symbols_after editor.insertText(caret_pos, text_to_insert) new_caret_pos = caret_pos + len(text_to_insert) editor.setEmptySelection(new_caret_pos) return if __name__ == '__main__': try: na except NameError: na = NA()

Hi, @mpheath and All,

I confirm that the command npp.AddShortcut(... works ONLY when appended to startup.lua and do not work in a separate Lua file !

And, this time, after restarting N++, the new options Copy this link Ctrl+Alt+2 and Copy this link Ctrl+Alt+3 were present in the Lua sub-menu and did the job, correctly

Finally, as this command is already included in the contextMenu.xml, I suppose that any script, whatever it is, that mimics the Copy link function, seems useless !

Again, thank you very much, @mpheath, for your support !

Best Regards,

guy038

Edit: I fixed this, in case anyone has any issues with it later. I just had to uncheck global font size.

@Ekopalypse working great now. thank you!

@Michael-Lander said in Line select problem:

@guy038 this is great! I cannot, however, find any shortcuts.xml to drop them into.

%AppData%\Notepad++\shortcuts.xml

See FAQ

@ThosRTanner
Should be the contents of the %Program Files%\Notepad++\plugins folder.

Note that most plugins have a bunch of app data in %Appdata% as well, which will be copied along with everything else if you do as PeterJones directed.

yes, i know ffmpeg but already tried for strange site and does not work
because from m3u8 to this site only segments are present but missing the full link (first) and token at the end (see my first post above), so ffmpeg don’t have link for its download

@PeterJones Alright, thank you for the reply; and the FYI, that’s good to know.

@Jeffrey-Cobb

Try this, its better and fast:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <NotepadPlus> <functionList> <parser id="css_comment" displayName="CSS Comment" commentExpr="(?s:/\*.*?\*/)|(?m-s://.*?$)"> <function mainExpr="^([:#\.\w][^\{]+\{[^\}]+\})" displayMode="$functionName"> <functionName> <nameExpr expr="^([:#\.\w][^\{]+)"/> </functionName> </function> </parser> </functionList> </NotepadPlus>

I put it in appdata and the one from the main D:\Notepad++\shortcuts.xml I removed.

A big thank you to @guy038. It works flawlessly.

You might be able to use my plugin Columns++ to help with this. See the help sections on Elastic tabstops and the Convert separated values to tabs… command.

Elastic tabstops is a conceptually simple algorithm defined by Nick Gravgaard for aligning tab-separated text. It works by treating each tab as a column separator and then making each column just large enough to hold its contents, much like the way a simple HTML table works.

In most cases, Convert separated values to tabs should be able to transform a csv file into tab-separated values without confusion.

There are some other handy functions in the plugin for working with data arranged in columns as well.

I currently consider the plugin to be in an “alpha” state. I use it, and I haven’t been seeing many problems reported, but it could be that hardly anyone is using it. If you use it, please let me know if you encounter any problems.

@PeterJones Thank you Peter, I appreciate the solution. Man you’re so good with this stuff… I wish I knew how to do RegEx. I’ve looked it before but it just seem so difficult to learn!

@Alan-Kilborn @Coises

without having more information about how exactly such a feature is supposed to work, it’s hard to say whether locking part of a text with this style attribute is sufficient. For example, if this “locking” only happens after several edits, I’d be surprised if a few “undos” didn’t reset the text. Never tested it.

@Douglas-Schneider - there is a possibility that a Python script could be used via the PythonScript plugin, but one would need more information on how it should work.
Questions I’m thinking of include.
Are the files only on the hard drive or also on the network, on a USB drive, etc.?
Is the file only ever edited by one person, or perhaps multiple users?
Is the area locked when the file is loaded or at any time?
Does only text need to be locked for files that don’t use another lexer, e.g. text doesn’t have a lexer, but xml or json files do.
What must be done when ending a npp session or closing the file or starting npp and loading a file?
Etc …
If you can specify your requirement and are willing to go the a python script solution way, we might be able to offer you something.

@wonkawilly I need a regex, because I wanna FIND and REPLACE in several html files…

I find a solution, super

FIND: </table>\r\n\K(<.*>)|K\r\n<p class="text_obisnuit">

interesting is that I used K instead of \K

@İhsan-Akdaş said in Bana yardım edin lütfen:

but everyone I watch videos can edit it,

I just noticed this statement: you should re-watch the video, because a rewatch will probably show you that you picked the wrong file to edit, or it will show you how the video said to make the changes.

@fixmypcmike ,

Starting in v8.5.1, the way the context menu was done was changed to work with win11, but has been having trouble with older versions of Windows. Subsequent releases have been trying to fix it for “everyone” with varying levels of success.

Unfortunately for you, Win7 is not supported by Notepad++, so while it will hopefully soon work for win8.1 and newer, it may be that it won’t ever be in your default context menu on your decade-out-of-date OS. Of course, it’s really easy to manually add it to your registry yourself on Win7… ( use the forum search for registry and put my username as the author in the search advanced options, and you should find an example from me some years back.)

@mkupper said in Screen location when Notepad++ restarts:

Alt+spacebar to activate the shortcut menu is also useful to help locating a hidden or lost application as it will pop up on the edge of the monitor nearest to where the application is hidden or parked.

Yes, this is a good tip, as it gives one a hint in what directional arrow to use (if one’s going to use the keyboard) in order to get the app back on-screen. However, if it is “far” away, the user may hold down the arrow key for a LONG time and think it isn’t working…
