@PeterJones said in Is there any plugin can make NPP realtime-auto-indent?: But Perl mode doesn’t work, so I have to use plugins You’re right: apparently, each lexer handles auto-indenting differently, and the Perl lexer does not indent when you enter a new level. WHAT?!?! With all the Perl programming I’ve done in N++ in the past I can’t believe I’ve never noticed this. Maybe always using my QuickText plugin which has an if snippet that auto-expands to the proper format: if ( ) { ^[indented to here] } Cheers.

Hi @Wally-Kempf Maybe I’m assuming too much, but if you want to get rid of those false line wraps, extend @Alan-Kilborn 's regex as follows: Search: (?s)(\R)(?!"\d{6}",) Replace: \x20 which produces this two-lines outcome: "040339","0006","013","Amherst at City View","","","","","","HOUSTON","TX","77060","17103 IMPERIAL VALLEY DR","227","75.00","8.000000","AI","gate code 2070","","1","","","","","","","","29.946850","-95.396846","1.00","","","174350" "041217","0001","001","PALM BEACH ESTATES ","","","","","","HOUSTON","TX","77060","16818 CITY VIEW PL","227","76.00","8.000000","AI","GATE CODE 1454 SECTION 1 GATE CODE 1453 ACROSS THE STREET ENTRANCE IS ON CITY VIEW OFF BENMAR","","1","","","","","","","","29.934018","-95.396125","1.00","","","174325" Best Regards.

Hello, @terry-r and All, I said : I was waiting the Terry’s reply, first,… Because I think it is more fair to let the first guy, helping the OP, to develop his solution ;-)) Then, you can jump into the discussion, proposing alternate solutions, too ! Besides, I know that I’m really too eager to give my regex solutions and, very often, I must prevent some people from helping with their own solutions ;-)) Now, regarding your solution, you’re right about it : best to avoid large amounts of data inside the look-ahead structure ;-)) So, from the short example data, in my previous post : one two three four five six seven eight nine ten twenty-two ------- twenty-two five nineteen seven First, using the option Edit > Column Editor..., at column 12 or more, we would get : one 01 two 02 three 03 four 04 five 05 six 06 seven 07 eight 08 nine 09 ten 10 twenty-two 11 ------- 12 twenty-two 13 five 14 nineteen 15 seven 16 And , after the Edit > Line Operations > Sort Lines Lexicographically Ascending option, we get : ------- 12 eight 08 five 05 five 14 four 04 nine 09 nineteen 15 one 01 seven 07 seven 16 six 06 ten 10 three 03 twenty-two 11 twenty-two 13 two 02 Now, using the following regex S/R : SEARCH (?-s)^(.+)\x20+\d+\R\1\x20+\d+\R? OR (?-s)^(.+)(\x20+\d+\R?)\1(?2) REPLACE Leave EMPTY We are left with : ------- 12 eight 08 four 04 nine 09 nineteen 15 one 01 six 06 ten 10 three 03 two 02 Then, moving back the numbers from the end to the beginning of line, with the column mode selection, we would obtain : 12 ------- 08 eight 04 four 09 nine 15 nineteen 01 one 06 six 10 ten 03 three 02 two And, after a last ascending sort, we have : 01 one 02 two 03 three 04 four 06 six 08 eight 09 nine 10 ten 12 ------- 15 nineteen Finally, after processing this last regex S/R, we get our expected text, removing leading numbers and trailing spaces as well as anything from the line of dashes ---, till the end of file : SEARCH (?s)^\d+\h*---+.+|^\d+\h*|\h+$ REPLACE Leave EMPTY one two three four six eight nine ten Cheers, guy038

Hi, @alex-mesch, To begin with, click on the link, below : https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/topic/15765/faq-desk-where-to-find-regex-documentation Cheers, guy038

@Alan-Kilborn found some discussion from the community. I still haven’t found the problem, maybe it was the linked post I mistakenly thought was reported as a problem.

@guy038 Wow working absolutely perfect. Thanks for the help!

@Alan-Kilborn have downloaded and installed 64-bit version and success! Thanks for the tip off, appreciate both yours and @Ekopalypse ’ help!

@PeterJones said in Color modification of style 15 of the "OScript" language via the "Style Configurator", not taken in account, on next N++ start: However, they should be meaningful Yep - that’s for sure :)

maybe for most people, but not for all… it is a function that is not present, and in some cases it may be useful. I hope it will be implemented in future versions …

ok. sorry i had not seen that your Yes was a link …! tanxs

@PeterJones: Again, thanks very much for your quick and thorough response! Of course, without the exact sequence of events and messages, it’s impossible to reproduce the problem. Usually basic operations liking open, close, save don’t cause problems, so I was not in the kind of frame of mind in which I was carefully recording everything I did and everything the app did. Still it is weird that, when I shut down Notepad++ and started it up a second time, my changes were there, but when I shut it down and started it up a third time, they were gone. I looked in the backup location and the recycle bin, but no luck. Only ways that could happen that I can think of: either I removed the changes myself in Notepad++ (which I didn’t), or I accidentally deleted the file (which would have put it into the recycle bin). Have to just chalk it up to a glitch of some kind.

I picked up the \K-for-add-after-match idiom from @guy038 and/or @Terry-R somewhere along the way, and it’s started to stick to my regexes.

@FlurDeChiken How could I have missed that? Thanks for mentioning it. Another arrow in my quiver. :)

@PeterJones I didn’t know about Character Panel. Thanks for mentioning about it, too.

Thank you! It works when I define operator 1 as follows: -. :-) BG, Heike

@guy038 Nice solution that really looked at solving the OP’s problem, rather than (like me) focusing on “Copy all the results from the Find window” not being macro-recordable.

@guy038 I was a little loose with my “any time” verbage. Your context was the Mark operation, which was what I meant, but said poorly.

It is unfortunate that you cannot find high-powered text editors on Apple Store. As a non-Apple user, I cannot suggest any good ones. But there’s not much we as the Notepad++ (user) Community can do about it. The reason official ports of Notepad++ don’t exist for iOS or Android is because the core of Notepad++ was written using the Win32 API, which is the MS Windows way of handling window management and intra-process and inter-process communication. This API is significantly different than the various GUI toolkits available for Android or iOS. By the time enough of the Notepad++ codebase was re-written to be able to work on those completely different platforms, they would cease to be Notepad++. (There is someone who released something they called “Notepad++” to Android, IIRC, but it is unaffiliated with the official Notepad++ discussed here, and has nothing to do with the codebase or this project or forum.) To sum up: I am sure there are plaintext editors available for iOS and Android, but Notepad++ is not one of them; some in the Notepad++ community may have text editors that they use or recommend for their portable devices, but that’s not actually the focus of this forum, so I don’t know how good of an alternative suggestion you will get. But, to be helpful, let me google that for you on iOS and Android.

@Sean-Bertoniere said in UDL code folding: it’s basically lisp with different keywords. Then that should be really easy to do in the builtin Lexer. Settings > Style Configurator > LISP has User-defined keywords available on FUNCTION WORD, FUNCTION WORD2, and OPERATOR. (By default, FUNCTION WORD and FUNCTION WORD2 have the same stylings applied, but you could change that, in order to get 3 distinct highlights; maybe leave FUNCTION WORD as the standard lisp keywords, and put the halo-specific keywords in FUNCTION WORD2 and/or OPERATOR.) All you have to do is add a space-separated list of keywords into the User-defined keywords box, then click Save & Close

@Raventara said in After updating to NP++ 7.8.4 (64 bit) all of the theme colours are incorrect: After updating to NP++ 7.8.4 (64 bit) all of the theme colours are incorrect. Does not happen to me but there was a recent issue posted that JSON wasn’t colored as expected and it turned out that the stylers.xml got corrupted. In your case it might be the THEME_NAME.xml.
