Hi, @upay an All,

Easy with regular exrpressions !

Open the Replace dialog ( Ctrl + H )
SEARCH (?-s)\{.+\||\}
REPLACE Leave EMPTY
Tick the Wrap aorund option, if necesaary
Clik on the Replace All

Notes :

I assume that your text contains only one range {...|....|....}, per line
The search regex looks for two patterns, separated with the | alternation symbol
The { and } braces, as well as the | symbol, are special characters in regex syntax, so it must be escaped with \ to be seen as literal chars
The (?-s) part, forces the regex engine to see the regex char . as matching a single standard char ( not EOL ! )
Then the part \{.+\| looks for an opening brace { till the last | symbol, of each line
The second pattern is simply \} which matches an ending brace char
As replacement zone is empty, these two patterns are deleted

Best Regards,

@guy038 it works , thanks…but i forget to explain more…
actually i cant speak english i hope u understand :(

for example

Belajar {dari|berasal dari} {kesalahan|kekeliruan} musim sebelumnya, RRQ {terhadap|pada|dilakukan} MPL Season 2 seakan tak terbendung oleh tim lain. Dia {cuma|sanggup} melihat {dari jauh|apaya}.

what i want is the last word, but other words not be deleted
if not understand,what i want is the paragraph will be like this

Belajar berasal dari kekeliruan musim sebelumnya, RRQ dilakukan MPL Season 2 seakan tak terbendung oleh tim lain. Dia sanggup melihat apaya.

thank you very much i really appreaciate,

Hi, @upay an All,

Ah, OK ! Then, assuming that your text do not contain ranges {.............}, split on two lines as, for intance :

{terhadap|pada|
dilakukan}

A possible solution would be :

SEARCH (?-s)\{.+?\|([^|]+)\}

REPLACE \1

If we use the free-spacing mode, the regex, with some explanations in comments, can be rewritten as :

(?x-s)     #  Search in FREE-SPACING ( SPACE char NO SIGNIFICANT ) and NO SINLE LINE modes ( DOT = a SINGLE STANDARD character )
  \{       #  An OPENING brace
  .+?      #  The SHORTEST NON-NULL range of STANDARD chars...
  \|       #  ...Till an ALTERNATION symbol
  (        #  Beginning of GROUP 1
    [^|]+  #    GREATEST NON-NULL range of characters, ALL DIFFERENT from an ALTERNATION symbol...
  )        #  End of GROUP 1
  \}       #  ...Till an ENDING brace
           #  In replacement, \1 stands for the contents of GROUP 1

Best Regards,

Hi @guy038, @Upay, All

An alternative and graphical approach to @guy038’s efficient regex solution. The approach needs @Ekopalypse Python script, posted here and, of course, the Python plugin installed:

giphy

Words were marked by a regex expression just for visual reasons.

Have fun!

@guy038 it works, like what i want… thank you very muchh :) :)
