      @Meta-Chuh ,

      As I learned a few months ago (it’s buried in the docs, but I needed other users to point it out to me): to edit an existing script, instead of clicking normally on the script, use Ctrl+Click. After that, you can use the tabbar > right-click entry to open that directory in Explorer, if you find that easier for opening other scripts from the same folder.

      update: https://github.com/bruderstein/PythonScript/issues/108 was where I learned this.

        Since you have a solution that works, why go looking for another one?
        My data is in npp. I have to copy-paste it to firefox and run foxscript, and bring the processed data back to npp.

        Thanks.

          wow. so simple. thanks.

          in my case, ctrl-leftclick on the script name in the menu, opens that script in npp to edit. rightclick doesn’t do anything.

            Yes, but seems like @Meta-Chuh was looking for something more direct.

              thats even better, thanks.
              editing/viewing existing scripts is the thing i’ll probably use most in the future i suppose.

              btw: i just read your old thread and i just had to copy the following sentence and apply it unchanged to myself ;-)

              Well, I (me, metachuh) feel silly. It’s documented right there in the Installation: Usage in the help file: “To edit the script, just hold Ctrl down and click the script in the Scripts menu”. I guess that proves I’ve only read the help file when looking for specific commands. Someday, I should really read the whole thing. :-)

                Hi, @alan-kilborn,

                I cannot get your Python script ( see below ) running correctly ! I certainly misunderstood what it is for :-(( To my mind, assuming your list, it should replace any lower-case letter a, b and c with the corresponding upper-case letter, in current file, shouldn’t it ?

                # format for each line is: delimiter then search regex then delimiter then replace regex
                sr_list = [
                    '!a!A',
                    '@b@B',
                    '!c!C',
                    ]
                
                # or take input from a file:
                #with open(r'sr_list.txt') as f: sr_list = f.readlines()
                
                editor.beginUndoAction()
                
                for line in sr_list:
                    (s,r) = line[1:].rstrip().split(line[0])
                    editor.rereplace(s,r)
                
                editor.endUndoAction()
                

                I tested your script, with Python script v1.2.0.0 and Notepad++ v6.0 and here is my debug info :

                Notepad++ v7.6   (32-bit)
                Build time : Nov 12 2018 - 23:51:42
                Path : D:\@@\760\notepad++.exe
                Admin mode : OFF
                Local Conf mode : ON
                OS : Windows XP (32-bit)
                Plugins : BetterMultiSelection.dll ComparePlugin.dll CustomizeToolbar.dll DSpellCheck.dll LightExplorer.dll LuaScript.dll mimeTools.dll NppConverter.dll NppExec.dll NppExport.dll NppTextFX.dll PythonScript.dll 
                

                On the other hand, my Python installation seems correct as, for instance, your other script, below, works nice, highlighting the strings Hello there, in light blue Mark style 1

                https://notepad-plus-plus.org/community/topic/16897/style-token-1-5-search-does-not-follow-default-case-sensitivity-of-find-dialog/5


                So, Alan, what obvious thing am I missing ?!

                Best Regards

                  I am sorry to hear it didn’t work for you. :-(

                  It is really a simple script, I’m not sure what could go wrong. Maybe try putting this line before the rereplace line and perhaps it will provide a hint of some sort: console.write('s:{} r:{}\n'.format(s,r))

                  Also, but this would have nothing to do with it, the strings in sr_list should be raw strings for best use with regex without getting “LTS”. Thus, '!a!A' should be 'r!a!A' and same for any other strings put into the sr_list.

                    what happens if you try a complete new pythonscript 1.3.0.0 install on a new 7.6.2 portable ?
                    still the same, or does alan’s script work on that ?

                    i’ve added the folder locations, from the other py thread, below as convenience if lib location or anything else of the add ons might be a trigger:

                    get a new copy of PythonScript_Full_1.3.0.0.zip from here
                    extract it and put it’s contents as listed below

                    PythonScript.dll, plugin dll goes to:
                    npp.7.6.2.bin\plugins\PythonScript\PythonScript.dll

                    python27.dll goes to:
                    npp.7.6.2.bin\python27.dll

                    machine level scripts and python library go to:
                    npp.7.6.2.bin\plugins\PythonScript\lib\
                    npp.7.6.2.bin\plugins\PythonScript\scripts\
                       contains sample scripts and startup. py

                    manual, context-help files go to:
                    npp.7.6.2.bin\plugins\doc\PythonScript\
                       contains PythonScript.chm up to version 1.2.0.0
                       contains html docs since version 1.3.0.0

                    user level scripts go to:
                    npp.7.6.2.bin\plugins\config\PythonScript\scripts\
                       note: this folder will be created automatically as soon as a new script is created.

                      it may be simple, but it definitively comes in very handy.
                      i use it, love it, and without you i wouldn’t have it. 😃👍

                      before using your script, i used your suggested way of using macros for multi pass, multi regexes on files.
                      (and before that, there was pure darkness 😂 )

                      but now i prefer your script, as the regexes are much easier to change or read than within a saved macro. 👍👍👍

                        Hello @alan-kilborn, @meta-chuh and All,

                        Sorry, I preferred to take some time, doing numerous tests and … it works nicely ;-))

                        Alan, it’s just my mistake, because I should have opened the console, immediately ! Indeed, I wrote some accentuated characters above \x7f, although in a comment ! So I added the directive #coding=utf-8 as first line of the script. You’re really lucky as an [A-Z] person ;-))

                        In order to run S/R in an insensitive way, I just imported the re library and used the flag re.IGNORECASE

                        I also tried your second solution with strings/regexes in a file and… no problem, too !

                        Just notice that, in this case, the exact python code is, rather :

                        f = open(r'<Drive_Letter>:\....\....\sr_list.txt')
                        
                        sr_list = f.readlines()
                        

                        I, first thought that, according your comments, the part, to be inserted, was, literally :

                        open(r'sr_list.txt') as f: sr_list = f.readlines()
                        

                        But, of course, this code is wrong and an error occurs on word as -:))


                        Hi, @meta-chuh,

                        Hummmm…, I’m hungry, since a while… So be patient a bit ! I be back very soon and, as I’ve already installed a portable v7.6.2 version of N++, I’ll, simply, need to add the latest Python

                        Just before posting, I’ve seen your last reply to Alan and I do agree to your compliments ! It’s really a magic script ;-))

                        Best Regards,

                        guy038

                          Having just done some Python tutorials, I learned about the with statement, which is what enables the as – the with was literally part of what was needed in order for the as to work

                            It’s just a tiny, obvious script, at least to me. :)

                            BTW glad you got it going.

                            I think Peter straightened out the with/as stuff. I’ll just say that the line that started out #with was correct as written. The intent was that one would simply remove the comment (with ONE keypress) to enable the line. Note that my coding style is that if a line is an informational comment it starts out as # plus space plus text. If it is code that is commented out, it is # (at correct indent level), then no space(!), then code.

                            [A-Z] person

                            What is that? Why is it a lucky thing?

                              very nice and clean to read 👍

                              hahaha, i never thought that [A-Z] person could be interpreted as a potential insult, or discrimination, but it is not. 😂😂😂

                              it’s just an expression for languages without special characters and letters like áàñøö and so on.

                                Hello @alan-kilborn, @meta-chuh and All,

                                First, Alan, the expression “An [A-Z] person” is a common way, for @scott-sumner to point out that he’s poorly concerned about accentuated characters and all relative questions ! That’s why I said that you’re lucky for not having to bother about these problems ;-))

                                Not also that I said, above, “is a common way” and not “was a common way” as I do hope that Scott will be back, on our forum, very soon !


                                Now, of course, the Python syntax, below, is totally exact !

                                 with open(r'sr_list.txt') as f: sr_list = f.readlines()
                                

                                It’s just that when I saw the two comment lines :

                                # or take input from a file:
                                #with open(r'sr_list.txt') as f: sr_list = f.readlines()
                                

                                I thought, wrongly, it meant, in fact :

                                # or take input from a file with [ the sentence ]:
                                # open(r'sr_list.txt') as f: sr_list = f.readlines()
                                

                                BTW, Alan, I tested, in the sr_list.txt, the syntax |^|Test , with some space chars after the word Test and, unfortunately, the ending spaces are not taken in account. Of course, I could have used |^|Test\x20\x20\x20…

                                So, may I ask for two improvements :

                                • The possibility to repeat the separator, after the replacement string, to take extra blank chars in account, either, in the sr_list.txt file or in the script, itself

                                • The possibility to add comments, beginning with the usual # char, in the sr-list.txt file

                                For instance :

                                # Add the string ABC, followed with 3 SPACES, at BEGINNING of line 
                                |^|ABC   |
                                # Add the string XYZ, followed with 3 SPACES  at END of line
                                !$!XYZ   !
                                

                                Contrary to what I said, @meta-chuh, I didn’t come back and just preferred going to bed as I’ve planned to spend a ski-day, as weather was quite nice, Wednesday, on Grenoble and, in addition, I also met some friends of mine, in Chamrousse ski-station ;-))

                                As promised, I installed the last 1.3.0.0. Python script version in my local N++ v7.6.2 installation

                                Let’s suppose that is N++ v7.6.2 is installed in any folder XXXX, different from folder C\Program files and folder C\Program files (x86). Then,

                                • I downloaded the PythonScript_Full_1.3.0.0.zip archive, in XXXX folder

                                • With 7zFileManager, I extracted all archive’s contents, in the XXXX folder

                                • I needed to execute an extra task :

                                  • Move the library PythonScript.dll from the plugins folder to the plugins\PythonScript folder
                                • I opened Notepad v7.6.2

                                  • I chose the menu option Plugins > Python Script > New Script and, immediately closed the window, with the ESC key, in order to create the file tree XXXX > plugins > Config > PythonScript > scripts

                                Finally, here is, below, the main file’s layout, right after installing the last Python script v1.3.0.0 ::

                                XXXX, below, represents the INSTALL folder of N++ v7.6.2 , which must be DIFFERENT from, either, "C\Program files" and "C\Program files (x86)"

                                P.S. :

                                In the future, I think that, at least, for portable installs, when all problems concerning “Plugins Admin” are solved, it would be reasonable to migrate the Config and doc directories from the plugins folder to the higher level, with the other directories localization, autoCompletion, themes and updater

                                So, the plugins folder would only contains sub-folders relative to each plugin installed ! What do you think of my idea ?

                                  Hello @alan-kilborn, @meta-chuh and All,

                                  I’m answering to myself, concerning the last question, at the end of my previous post

                                  Eventually, it would not be a nice solution to do so as, indeed, the Config and doc folders contain, both, files rather relative to plugins, too !

                                  Cheers,

                                  guy038

                                    may I ask for two improvements

                                    We don’t really need to repeat the delimiter, we just need to NOT ignore trailing space. What causes an ignoring of the trailing space in the original script is the rstrip() function. By default this function removes all whitespace from the right side of a string. If we change it to tell it to only strip line ending characters, it will leave blanks on that side: rstrip('\n'). Note that this will work for line endings of \n or \r\n in the file. I mention this because at first glance it would appear to only work for line endings of \n but that is not the case.

                                    Using # as a comment character is also easy, we can do it with this logic: if line[0] == '#': continue which means "if the first column of the data is # then “continue” the “for” loop by jumping back up to the “for” line, ignoring the rest of the indented lines under the “for”.

                                    A new version of the “magic” (still LOL!) script is:

                                    # format for each line is: delimiter then search regex then delimiter then replace regex
                                    sr_list = [
                                        '!a!A  ',
                                        '# I start with # so I am merely a comment line',
                                        '@b@B',
                                        '!c!C',
                                        ]
                                    
                                    # or take input from a file:
                                    #with open(r'sr_list.txt') as f: sr_list = f.readlines()
                                    
                                    editor.beginUndoAction()
                                    
                                    for line in sr_list:
                                        if line[0] == '#': continue
                                        (s,r) = line[1:].rstrip('\n').split(line[0])
                                        editor.rereplace(s,r)
                                    
                                    editor.endUndoAction()

                                      Not also that I said, above, “is a common way” and not “was a common way” as I do hope that Scott will be back, on our forum, very soon !

                                      me too, and i think all others too … a little secret: i saw him active at the npp github repo a few days ago 😃👍 … but don’t tell anyone ;-)

                                      I didn’t come back and just preferred going to bed as I’ve planned to spend a ski-day, as weather was quite,nice Wednesday, on Grenoble and, in addition, I also met some friends of mine, in Chamrousse ski-station ;-))

                                      good done, best thing to do … but envyyyyyy ;-)

                                      XXXX ( INSTALL folder of N++ v7.6.2 , DIFFERENT from folder “C\Program files” and folder “C\Program files (x86)” )

                                      thanks for your tree, it comes in very handy and i’ve bookmarked it.

                                      for competition i would edit it to:
                                      XXXX ( PORTABLE folder of N++ v7.6.2 , DIFFERENT from folder "C\Program files" and folder "C\Program files (x86)" )
                                      and/or a note that doLocalConf.xml has to be present.
                                      just to make sure readers will not get those structures mixed up with the different folder structure of an installed version without doLocalConf.xml.

                                        Hello, @v-s-rawat, @alan-kilborn, @meta-chuh and All,

                                        Alan, I tried your second version and everything went OK ! However, I prefer having a final separator, in order to easily see, in the SR_list.txt, the contents of the replacement regex.

                                        So, here is, below, my own version of your excellent script :

                                        #coding=utf-8
                                        
                                        import re
                                        
                                        # --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                        
                                        #                                           Script "Multiples_SR.py"
                                        
                                        # A LITTLE adaptation from an ORIGINAL and VALUABLE script of Alan KILBORN ( January 2019 ) !

                                        @meta-Chuh, as you said, I slightly modify the local Notepad++ tree, in my previous post, to point out the importance of the doLocalConf.xml file ;-))

                                          Yea, probably a good idea. Trailing blanks are hard to see without having visible line ends turned on (yuck!), or doing them as \x20 or, as you like, a trailing delimiter.

                                          Glad you are enjoying the script and your own script mods!

                                            Would you like to create a PR of the script to be added to https://github.com/bruderstein/PythonScript/tree/master/scripts/Samples? Otherwise I could also add the last version of @guy038 , if that is ok for you.

                                            I know the installation of PythonScript with N++ > 7.6.x is right now a horror. Hope i will find some time to get it compatible with PluginAdmin changes. The biggest problem known so far is the move the location of python27.dll into the plugin folder.
