@PeterJones said in Config Files Need Updating, Too:

But, unfortunately, there were a few growing pains in transferring from the plugin to the builtin that I was really hoping wouldn’t happen, because I had ironed out so many problems in the plugin version already.

That IS why it’s called ‘developing’. and maintainers are ‘developers’. :-)

If I ever saw a first version of anything that worked unscathed on the first try, I’d be digging through the code looking for the bomb that went undetected. :-)

Several other editors accept direct copy and paste in the replace-with box, be it CR+LF, LF or combination of both. They are probably written in C++.

It is now one line after deleting CR+LF and adding \r\n. Everything is pasted in the replace box.
It works flawlessly in the current file, or all open files, or in find in files.

@peterjones, sorry… I tried my best to not hijack a thread with another issue, which is why I approached it this way since I had 3 different questions to hash out. I don’t see this happening in the future and will just make a new post with my need and only focus on questions related to other posts without expanding outside of the scope… Btw, I couldn’t update that typo because of the 3 minute rule, but since the shared code was correct, I figured it would be figured out.

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.

@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))(?!_))

@Ivo-Krab said in Support for Plugins Admin & NppPluginList:

but modifying the C:\Program Files\Notepad++\plugins is understandably blocked without admin access.

Would it not be possible to allow (as a config choice) to install them in %APPDATA%\Notepad++ instead

The problem is that plugins in Notepad++ can do anything Notepad++ itself could do. They are C++ programs operating in the same security context as Notepad++ itself. From a security standpoint, allowing plugins in a directory that can be modified without admin access would be equivalent to allowing access to Program Files without admin access.

As I recall, that was allowed at one time, and this is why it was removed. Security-sensitive organizations determined that they could not install Notepad++ at all unless they could stop users from installing their own plugins. The developer decided it was better to remove the capacity entirely than to try to implement a switch of some kind.

The work-around, if you can run programs that are not installed in Program Files, is to use a portable copy of Notepad++. If you are not allowed to do that, then logically you would be forbidden to run Notepad++ plugins in a directory you control, since it would grant you exactly the same access.

@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

@erik-neyman
Hi,

first of all, please hide/change your secret_key setting (or remove the image), as this is a public forum and others may misuse it. :(

Unfortunately, there may be bugs in the latest NppOpenAI v0.5 update (updates/fixes can be found on the NppOpenAI development project page), so I suggest that instead of setting a route_chat_completions, you should specify the URL “all at once”, e.g.

api_url=https://api.openai.com/v1/chat/completions

Edit: You can leave the route_chat_completions setting unchanged.

I apologise for the error!

@Antheds-Kennel said in Delete every line below a bookmarked line.:

since there are 397,580 rows

So that’s a good reason to avoid (1), but nothing you have said explains why you think (2) won’t work for you.

I have to give up

Don’t lie to yourself. If you give up, it’s your own choice. All the information you have given us says that (2) will work for you, but you are choosing to ignore that option without explaining why.

that I have to sort somehow.

This is the first you’ve mentioned sorting, that I noticed.

Until you accurately describe what you are actually wanting, no one can help you.

@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
