      I also vote for Method 3. Method 2 has too much text changing from use to use. For me, the only advantage to Method 1 is being a bit easier to automate with AutoHotkey.

      @minneyb-unix Maybe an antivirus or similar problem. Yesterday, I had some false-positives even while trying to download N++ GitHub artifacts. I checked these "notepad++.exe"s via VirusTotal and these were flagged (only by the MS own Defender engine). Now it’s ok, so I’d try again.

      Thanks a lot @guy038 for running the whole thing again, this time it didn’t finish in seconds ;-) Nice to see the results panel still usable with almost 10 million hits, even the jump to line 690 in that DLL at the very end. Interesting that walking the whole drive for those 130 PDFs takes almost the entire run, 5m45 of 5m48 for MultiReplace, and it’s the same picture with the other tools. The 4 “not decodable” are most likely UTF-16 files with an odd number of bytes. N++ simply drops the last byte there, the next MultiReplace build will do the same in Find in Files (Replace leaves them alone, writing them back would lose that byte). Speed is next on my list.

      I said: In case anyone else is interested, you can try previewing plain-text wireloom files with this development build of Preview HTML. This feature has now been merged, with additional support for offline Markdown previews that will render wireloom code blocks: [image: 1790348955006-wireloomx898.gif] All rendering is done by client-side JavaScript modules, so MS Edge is still required. @Keith-Collyer said: What would be really good would be if the developers of these re-merged their plugins! Don’t look now, but no fewer than three new Markdown plugins have appeared in the past two weeks — and they all depend on the WebView2 runtime (i.e. Edge).

      @peterjones Installed Notepad++ v8.9.8.1, and this problem went away [image: 1790343129511-%D0%B1%D0%B5%D0%B7%D1%8B%D0%BC%D1%8F%D0%BD%D0%BD%D1%8B%D0%B9.png] p.s. And I don’t need to unblock files received from the Internet, because after a clean install of any Windows, I will block this option through the registry.

      Here are the latest binaries of SmartMath. This is a fully-working unofficial build that is going to be added to the official git repository… unless more improvements are suggested :) What’s new: the archive structure corresponds to the expectations of the Plugins Admin; the plugin searches for its documentation file near the SmartMath.dll, as well as in the “plugins\doc” folder; the plugin shows a warning when it does not find its syntax files in the expected locations under the “userDefineLangs” and “autoCompletion” folders of Notepad++. 64-bit version: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1pTS_cBdU_Q0vkG03cubqWZ9TDdYiSsXW/view?usp=drive_link 32-bit version: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qsI5Hsx4XmyRlhVeGsplAoTX391WEnOv/view?usp=drive_link

      Hello, @coises and All, Thank you very much, @coises, for your valuable advice ! As I already used a user definitions file, named Definitions.json5, containing the main examples from the documentation : Before starting N++, I simply included your modified implicit combining rules section to the definitions.json5 file, described below : { // A user definitions file is a JSONC file containing pairs of keys and values // listing what you type after the Compose key and what Compose types in response. // Each pair except the last must be followed by a comma. // Two forward slashes begin a comment: Compose for Notepad++ ignores // the slashes and everything after them on the same line. // You can use the standard escapes \n (new line), \r (return), \t (tab), // \" (quote within a quoted string) and \\ (backslash within a quoted string). // You can also use Unicode escapes, \u followed by four hexadecimal digits, // for example: "\u20ac" for "€", the Euro sign. Escape sequences for characters // outside the basic multilingual plane (code points 0x10000 or greater) // can only be entered as a UTF-16 surrogate pair. // You should save this file with a .jsonc extension. // Compose for Notepad++ reads the file each time you launch Notepad++, // so be sure to save it in a place where it won't be disturbed. "implicit combining rules" : { "'" : ["\u0301", "\u030B", true , "\u0317"], // acute accent | double | same as plain | acute accent below ")" : ["\u0306", false , true , "\u032E"], // breve | - | same as plain | breve below ">" : ["\u030C", false , true , "\u032C"], // caron/hacek | - | same as plain | caron/hacek below "," : ["\u0327", false , "\u0313", "\u0326"], // cedilla | - | comma above | comma below "ç" : ["\u0302", false , true , "\u032D"], // circumflex | - | same as plain | circumflex below "\"": ["\u0308", false , true , "\u0324"], // diaeresis | - | same as plain | diaeresis below "." : ["\u0307", false , true , "\u0323"], // dot above | - | same as plain | dot below "è" : ["\u0300", "\u030F", true , "\u0316"], // grave accent | double | same as plain | grave accent below "?" : ["\u0309", false , true , false ], // hook above | - | same as plain | - "+" : ["\u031B", false , true , false ], // horn | - | same as plain | - "-" : ["\u0304", false , true , "\u0331"], // macron | - | same as plain | macron below ";" : ["\u0328", false , "\u1DCE", true ], // ogonek | - | ogonnek above | same as plain "*" : ["\u030A", false , true , "\u0325"], // ring above | - | same as plain | ring below "é" : ["\u0303", false , true , "\u0330"], // tilde | - | same as plain | tilde below "_" : ["\u0332", "\u0333", "\u0305", true ] // underline | double | overline | same as plain }, "CC" : "\u2102", // double-struck capital C "rx" : "℞", // prescription symbol "dia" : "💎", // diamond symbol "br" : "Best Regards,\r\n\r\nguy038\r\n" // End of Post } Then, I started N++. To be sure that this json file was correct : I ran the Plugins > Compose > User definitions file... option. I clicked on the Select button. => No error occured ;-) And, indeed, no need to use the |Alt Gr] key and the [SP] key anymore, within the implicit combining rules section, on my French keyboard ! So, I also updated the main_Compose.txt file, in my Google drive account, which can be downloaded from the same address as before. Best Regards, guy038

      @PeterJones said: [IANAL, and I don’t know the legal term for a non-registered trademark] An unregistered trademark, sometimes informally called a common law trademark, is an enforceable mark created by a business or individual to signify or distinguish a product or service. –For future reference. The stronger case needs to be made as you mention to differentiate what could be called a trademark name versus a generically descriptive name. Such as the difference between Borax as a chemical and Borax as a trademarked product name. I am not a lawyer [IANAL], either, but I have done legal research from time to time, on these types of subjects as well, in the past.

      @guy038 , I have also noticed that, recently, the username filter in the advanced search page doesn’t populate usernames. I had thought it might have just been me. I know that @barisusakli from NodeBB occasionally logs in, and they recently updated the forum software for us… maybe that version had a bug, because the admin panel says there’s another version available since they last updated us. Until then, once you make your search, you can edit the URL to set &by=PeterJones to search for my posts (right now, the URL probably has &by= with no value). It’s not as convenient as the drop-down, but it is a workaround.

      Hello, @Roberts-Rozis, @Peterjones, @dennis-bulgrien, @coises and All, @Coises, I did some tests with my D USB key and with your Search++ plugin and the following generic regexes solve the problem nicely : So, @Roberts-Rozis and @dennis-bulgrien : Select The Plugins > Search++ > Search in Files... option Select your média (C, D, … ) on the left and don’t forget to check the Subfolders option and, possibly, the Hidden files option Select the Reg. exp. option for the Filter : type In the filter box : • For a search of any file, even WITHOUT extension, between level N minimum and M maximum, enter : ^(?:[^\\]+\\){N,M}[^\\]+ • For a search of any file, WITH an extension, between level N minimum and M maximum, enter : ^(?:[^\\]+\\){N,M}[^\\]+\..+ • For a search of any file with the EXACT extension 'txt' or 'log' or 'ini', between level N minimum and M maximum, enter : ^(?:[^\\]+\\){N,M}[^\\]+\.(?:txt|log|ini)$ You may also add a size and/or a date condition Of course, check your desired search options Finally, click on the Find in Files button IMPORTANT : Replace the letters N and M by true digits, with the condition N <= M. The M value may be missing ! The syntax of these regexes are specific to the Search++ These regexes allow any search in an arborescence, from level N minimum to level M maximum. However : You may search from level 0, if necessary You can go through all the structure with the 0, or the N, syntaxes Note that you can simulate the Search++ filtering mode by using one of the regexes below, directly in Notepad++ ^(?:[^\\\r\n]+\\){2,4}[^\\\r\n]+$ ^(?:[^\\\r\n]+\\){2,4}[^\\\r\n]+\..+ ^(?:[^\\\r\n]+\\){2,4}[^\\\r\n]+\.(?:txt|log|ini)$ Against the text below, that you’ll paste in a new tab : 987.txt abc\123.txt abc\def\456.txt abc\def\ghi\789.txt abc\def\ghi\jkl\012.txt abc\def\ghi\jkl\mno\pqr\stu\vwx\yz\999.txt 987.txt abc\123.txt abc\def\456.txt abc\def\ghi\789.ini abc\def\ghi\jkl\012.log abc\def\ghi\jkl\mno\pqr\stu\vwx\yz\999.txt LICENSE abc\LICENSE abc\def\LICENSE abc\def\ghi\LICENSE abc\def\ghi\jkl\LICENSE abc\def\ghi\jkl\mno\pqr\stu\vwx\yz\LICENSE You may also try, for example, the cases {0,3} or {0,} or even {4,}.

      @Charles-Billow said: I see how to change fonts etc. for the document I am working on, but how do I change the default font/size/ and zoom level as the default for all new documents? The way you phrased that makes me think you might not understand what a text editor is. Text files are stored as the raw text: no individual text file / text-based-document has any concept of its own font or font-size. It is just text, and it is up to the text editor to decide what font or size to use. If you set Notepad++ to use a specific font or font-size, using the dialog that @markusbodensee shared with you, that will affect how Notepad++ displays it, but MS notepad.exe or VS Code or gvim will all use their own font and size, because it’s up to the app, not the file, what font and size to display text in. If you’ve changed the font and size that’s used “in the current document” in Notepad++, you’ve changed the font and size for all documents, new or old, in Notepad++. As far as Zoom level goes: Notepad++ remembers your previous zoom when you exit. But if you’ve set a reasonable font size as your default, then zoom should normally be at 100% (which is the default if you haven’t zoomed in or out yet). If you’re to the point that you start thinking you want to have the default zoom bigger or smaller than 100%, then think to yourself: do you really mean that you should change the font size bigger or smaller, instead? (Then again, some people are still killing trees from their text editor, so if you’re printing to paper, maybe you have one of the few use cases where it makes sense to use a smaller font but larger zoom, or vice versa.)
