@Scott-Sumner

To have a consistent user experience it would be better like you wrote. But I also agree that this needs so much effort that no one should hope to get these features.

I think the proponents of the two-button solution missed a point. It seems they prefer to have two buttons because they want to speed up doing SEARCHES. For this use case Notepad++ offers some powerful alternatives:
Keyboard shortcuts for forward (F3) and backward (SHIFT+F3) searching. With support of the “Customize Toolbar” plugin one can even have toolbar buttons for both of that. The seemingly overlooked though very useful “Incremental Search” (CTRL+ALT+I) function where forward and backward search buttons are already present. This function even provides a separate input field for the search term (which is integrated seamlessly into the UI), case sensitive search, highlighting of matches and it displays the matches count. The also seemingly overlooked “Find (Volatile) Next” (CTRL+ALT+F3) and “Find (Volatile) Previous” (CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+F3) functions. These functions search the next/previous word under the cursor, the quickest way to start a search because its needless to input a search term somewhere.
I guess the initial intent when introducing the two-button search mode was to reduce the number of UI-elements and to simplify the work with this dialog. But the current design of the dialog has not only totally failed this aim, the oposite is the case.

In my opinion the “Search & Replace” dialog should be used for more sophisticated search/replace tasks, that’s the reason why it has so much options. And instead of complaining about missing functions and demanding changes to a program users should investigate thoroughly the UI and the options dialog, often they will find useful treasures.

Using Spy++ I can see these messages to my WPF window/wrapper when NPP closes down…
<000015> 001A0C64 S WM_GETTEXT cchTextMax:512 lpszText:0012D7A8 <000016> 001A0C64 R WM_GETTEXT cchCopied:5 lpszText:0012E910 ("A") <000017> 001A0C64 S message:0x0090 [Unknown] wParam:00000000 lParam:00000000 <000018> 001A0C64 R message:0x0090 [Unknown] lResult:00000000 <000019> 001A0C64 S WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING lpwp:0012FBFC <000020> 001A0C64 R WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING <000021> 001A0C64 S WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGED lpwp:0012FBFC <000022> 001A0C64 R WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGED <000023> 001A0C64 S message:0x0272 [Unknown] wParam:00000000 lParam:00000000 <000024> 001A0C64 R message:0x0272 [Unknown] lResult:00000000 <000025> 001A0C64 S WM_DESTROY <000026> 001A0C64 R WM_DESTROY <000027> 001A0C64 S WM_NCDESTROY <000028> 001A0C64 R WM_NCDESTROY
Does anyone know what 0x0090 and 0x0272 messages are?

I hooked the messages in my WPF code which gave this:
MSG 90 (0, 0) = ??? MSG 46 (0, 1244516) = WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING MSG 47 (0, 1244516) = WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGED MSG 272 (0, 0) = ??? The thread 0x2920 has exited with code 0 (0x0). MSG 2 (0, 0) = WM_DESTROY MSG 82 (0, 0) = WM_NCDESTROY Exception thrown at 0x73F008F2 (KernelBase.dll) in notepad++.exe: 0x0000071A: The remote procedure call was canceled, or if a call time-out was specified, the call timed out. The thread 0x1b9c has exited with code 0 (0x0).
Is it interesting that a thread exits after Msg 0x272 ? Perhaps NPP expects a non-zero reply to this message?

Ok, I’ve merged the branch back into master and it seems like everything works… I don’t know what the XPML functionality is supposed to be, and without a working version I’m not sure how to troubleshoot it. I’ve removed the XPML options from the menu.

The functional 32 bit version of the plugin is available here:

I have it now. I compiled the plugin template without any changes. The only thing was, the C++Builder has a project option ‘C++ Compiler/Output/Create Underscore for Symbolnames’, which is checked by default. It must be unchecked.

Conclusion, Npp Plugins can also developed with Embarcadero’s C++ Builder.

Your 32-Bit version is an outdated v1.x. The current version of the plugin (v2.0) lacks the option “Align Matches”. I guess it’s not necessary anymore.

I don’t have the “log” language to which you refer… but many of the language lexers allow for adding custom keywords to existing styles. For example, Settings > Style Configurator, Language = LISP, select Style = FUNCTION WORD and you can add other custom keywords to the User-defined keywords box. It may be that your “log” language has similar – so if “log” shows up in the Language selection column, then look through it’s various Style column items, and see which ones have customizeable boxes. Any that do, you should be able to add keywords into those styles.

That description assumes the “log” language is above the vertical bar (ie, above “Define your language…”) in the Language pulldown. If the “log” language is below the “Define your language…”, then it’s a User Defined Language (UDL), and the methodology will be different.

Go to Language > Define your language..., then in the User language pulldown, select “log”. Go to the “Keywords List” tab, and either add your keywords to the existing styles, or if some of your 8 groups are empty, you can create new group(s) with unique style(s) in any empty groups. Ivan Radić has made available documentation on how to use UDL v2.1.
