i miss you too @Scott-Sumner and i hope you read this some day.

i’m sorry too for everything that happened and my failed humorous attempts to brighten up the situation.

i think that don didn’t even look to whom he gave this reply at that certain moment, and i know how this must feel … like a job where a 3 year “underpaid” employee, who is also probably the biggest defender and supporter of this hypothetical company, suddenly gets a “who the hell are you” from the boss.

please come back, or more important: we, specifically i as an individual would like to keep in contact, regardless of how, when or where.

thanks @PeterJones for standing up.
(i currently have a certain movie scene in my mind … “o captain my captain” from the movie dead poets society)

@PeterJones said in UDL for DXL (C LIke) Number processing issues.:

XML recognizes numeric/hex entities

Actually, if you look at the discussion here, it appears that Notepad++'s parsing of the XML might have difficulty with the decimal numeric entities, so it seems more reliable to just use the hex entities (the ones that start with &#x then have 1 or more hexadecimal nibbles, followed by the ;)

@Sylvester-Bullitt Got done generating broken link report.

THE GOOD NEWS: My regex didn’t break any links

THE BAD NEWS: I just go lucky. Some further testing revealed that my regex would have broken links, if I had had the bad luck to use a search term that also in a hyperlink URL.

So, I added lookaheads to ignore matches of underscores and .htm, and it seems to work. In case anyone’s interested, here’s the new-and-improved regex, with some comments added for clarity:

(?-si:<section class="lyrics">|(?!\A)\G)(?s-i:(?!</section>).)*?(?#Not at start of line or para)(?<!^)(?<!<p>)(?<!<p class="chorus">)\K(?-si:\bWORD_TO_FIND\bq(?#Not in hyperlink)(?!(\.htm))(?!_))

@PENchanter

I would certainly go with @Ekopalypse 's script approach in order to obtain the list of keyboard shortcuts, rather than paying any small amount of money to achieve it, but of course you are free to do as you like.

@Fatih-Ceylan ,

Could you show us the ? menu’s Debug Info after you followed the instructions you quoted?

@Alan-Kilborn - That’s very nice, thanks! In that case I think I’ll use 64-bit Notepad++.

@guy038 tanxs you so much for your explanation and for modification to your reg-ex!
now it works very well!
I never said I had an example like yours, but maybe it’s my fault that I didn’t explain myself well …
everything is working fine now. always thanks for your regex!
cheers

@bruderstein Hi, today I tried to register for adding my new Notepad++ plugin “SQLinForm SQL Formatter” but unfortunately got an error while registrating at nppm.bruderste.in. Could you please help? Thx

@Ekopalypse

I think I have made a very obvious mistake. I forgot to specify my search flag as you mentioned in my other post. After switching it to Regexp, it seems to be working. I feel like that was very obvious and you have taken a lot of your time to help me, so thank you again for all your help.

If anything else happens, I’ll post again. Thanks.

OK, the GitHub link @andrecool-68 provided already pointed to a description of how I did it.
Did not remember that.
What can I say: “Now also available for Notepad++ 64 bit!” :-D

@andrecool-68 I agree, same toolbar button functionality as the build-in Function List toolbar button i.e. indicating active/inactive by changing the button background color.

@guy038 tank you so much, your last string (?-s)^((?!.+@).+\R?)+ work very well for my purpose! Regards.

If you’ve used a script in this thread, you might want to double check your copy of it for a bug I’ve discovered.
Look to previous postings in this topic thread where the script has been changed – find the text moderator edit (2024-Jan-14).
There’s a link there that describes the bug in more detail, and shows what needs to be changed in an old copy (or you can simply grab a copy of the current version).

@Gilberto-SC

you can use procmon in order to find out which dll gets loaded, from where and when.
Run procmon, define a filter for npp and then start npp.
It needs a bit of training but if you are really interested in finding out what does what
check out the sysinternals tools as well as everything Mark Russinovich has posted/blogged.

Once you are at the level to understand how process, threads, libraries, drivers … work together
download hxd and start investigating memory.

Other useful tools can be found at nirsoft.
