      Hello, @alan-kilborn and All,

      Alan, you’ve been reassured. I’m back. Our stay went well, although there was some very hard snow, following rain in the previous days. And, on the first day, on the Luc Alphand black run, at Chante-Merle, I was not very proud ! Basically, it was OK between 10.00 am and 2.30 pm max !


      Now, let’s get back to our beloved editor !

      So, here is my third version ( and still incomplete ) of my Python script which improves the View > Summary feature :

      # encoding=utf-8

      Now, two points are still not clear :


      - A To get the current language of the current file, I use the notepad.getCurrentLang() fonction. But I also saw the notepad.getLangType() fonction which seems to return the same string !? Which fonction would be best for this specific script ?


      - B For the current encoding, I would like to get the zone at right of the status bar. I did see the notepad.setStatusBar(statusBarSection, function) but I don’t see the counterpart notepad.getStatusBar(statusBarSection !

      For instance, if you have a UTF-8 default file, typing notepad.getEncoding(), on the python console, returns Npp.BUFFERENCODING.COOKIE

      Now, if you decide to change the way this file’s bytes are interpreted with, for example, the Encoding > Character Set > Western European > OEM-US encoding, typing again notepad.getEncoding() on the python console, still returns Npp.BUFFERENCODING.COOKIE, although I would have expected Npp.BUFFERENCODING.OEM-US or perhaps just OEM-US !

      TIA for any hint !

      Best Regards,

        notepad.getCurrentLang() versus notepad.getLangType()

        If you’re interested in the currently active tab, you can use either one.
        If you wanted a tab that is not the active one, notepad.getLangType() allows you to specify a buffer id for that other tab.


        but I don’t see the counterpart notepad.getStatusBar(statusBarSection)

        My script for that is HERE.


        …still returns Npp.BUFFERENCODING.COOKIE, although I would have expected …

        Some good “cookie” discussion is HERE, and it also includes the get-status-bar technique.

        Some more good discussions about encoding are found in these threads:

        • https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/topic/25175/how-can-i-get-the-encoding-of-current-document
        • https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/topic/24560/new-plugin-multireplace

        Quoting @Coises from one of those threads:

        Notepad++ doesn’t handle character sets internally the way it appears to a user. For editing, everything is either in the user default code page (“ANSI”) or in UTF-8. Whenever you’re not using the default code page, Notepad++ uses UTF-8 (so it is possible to enter and see characters that aren’t in the code page). Translation to other code pages is done when reading and writing the file.

        This could be the reason you aren’t obtaining the results you expect. Now, Notepad++ could, if it wanted to, provide the info that it itself knows about (from the status bar). For whatever reason, it chooses not to (probably lack of developer attention to this detail).

          Hello, @alan-kilborn and All,

          I’m still improving my Python script which can be used instead of the View > Summary feature. I added :

          • The current date and time in the title

          • The Read-only file flag status

          • The Notepad++ Read only status

          • The current view, the current Line End and the current wrap mode

          • The script, now, opens automatically a new tab and pastes the contents of the summary in this new tab


          Here is the fourth ( and still incomplete ) version :

          Now, Alan, I may incorporate, of course, your script, partially displayed below, within my script, in order to get the exact encoding used by the current file !

          # -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
          from __future__ import print_function
          
          from Npp import *

              FindWindowExW = ctypes.windll.user32.FindWindowExW
              SendMessageW = ctypes.windll.user32.SendMessageW
              LRESULT = LPARAM
              SendMessageW.restype = LRESULT
              SendMessageW.argtypes = [ HWND, UINT, WPARAM, LPARAM ]
              EnumChildWindows = ctypes.windll.user32.EnumChildWindows
              GetClassNameW = ctypes.windll.user32.GetClassNameW
              create_unicode_buffer = ctypes.create_unicode_buffer
          .....
          .....
              npp_hwnd = FindWindowW(u"Notepad++", None)
              EnumChildWindows(npp_hwnd, WNDENUMPROC(EnumCallback), 0)
              if npp_get_statusbar.STATUSBAR_HANDLE: return get_result_from_statusbar(statusbar_item_number)
              assert False
          
          print(npp_get_statusbar(4))  # Zone 4 ( STATUSBARSECTION.UNICODETYPE )
          

          But, given that I’m only interressed in the fourth zone of the Status Bar, can’t we used a simplified version of your script to do so ?

          TIA again !

          Best Regards,

          guy038

            I’m not sure how it could be simplified, but if you have ideas on that, please do it and publish it as part of your script.

            It could be put in its own module, and import ed if you’d like…

              …returns Npp.BUFFERENCODING.COOKIE, although I would have expected Npp.BUFFERENCODING.OEM-US or perhaps just OEM-US…

              Rather that relying on a kludged read of the Notepad++ status bar, perhaps you should make a github issue against Notepad++, stating that NPPM_GETBUFFERENCODING doesn’t provide the data you need/expect, and maybe this plugin command will be enhanced for you?

                Hello, @alan-kilborn and All,

                Alan, first of all, I could have told you that I didn’t want to bother modifying your script and that I’d integrated it, as is. But, the truth is that I’m still a long way from understanding your script and seing any possible simplifications :-((


                So, here is my final version of this Python script which can be used instead of the View > Summary feature. It contains the @alan-kilborn section which reads the right part of the status-bar, relative to the current encoding

                    Hi, Alan and All,

                    ( Continuation of the previous post )

                    Now, I’ve come accross a problem with the encodings !

                    Have you ever noticed that, when you decide to re-interpret the present encoding of a file with the View > Character Set > ... feature, that there are two possible scenarios ?

                    • A) - The present econding is an Unicode encoding with a BOM ( Byte Order Mark ). So, either the UTF-8-BOM, UCS-2 BE BOM or UCS-2 LE BOM encoding

                    • B) - The present encoding is an ANSI or UTF-8 file, so without a BOM

                    In the first case, whatever the new encoding chosen ( one-byte or two-bytes encoding ), the file contents do not change and my script just respects the real encoding of the current file

                    For example, with an UCS-2 LE BOM encoded file, if I change its encoding to View > Character Set > Western European > OEM-US, my new summary just consider that it’s still a true UCS-2 LE BOM encoded file, leading to a correct summary report !

                    In the second case, the new encoding chosen does modify the current file contents in the editor window. In addition, it automatically supposes that the current file is an UTF-8 encoded file, leading to erroneous results in the summary rapport :-( However, the current file contents, saved on the disk, seem still unchanged !!

                    For instance :

                    • Open a new tab

                    • Use the Encoding > Convert to UTF-8 feature, if necessary

                    • Enter the four chars Aé☀𝜜, without any line-break, at the end

                    • Save this file as Test-UTF8.txt

                    • Using my script, you get, in a new tab :

                    Everything is OK ( buffer length and length on disk are identical and the bytes length description shows one char for each number of bytes, without any EOL )

                    • Now, switch back to the Test-UTF8.txt file

                    • Run the View > Character Set > Western European > OEM-US feature

                    And, at the same time, a prompt displays this warning :

                    CURRENT file re-interpreted as OEM-US => Possible ERRONEOUS results
                    So, CLOSE the file WITHOUT saving, RESTORE it (CTRL + SHIFT + T) and RESTART script

                    Indeed, this time, as the file contents are unchanged, the length on DISK is still correct but the BUFFER length is wrong, due to the re-interpretation of the characters by the OEM-US encoding. That’s why I preferred to add this warning at the end of the script !

                    Now, do as it is said :

                    • Close the Test-UTF8.txt file ( Ctrl + W )

                    • Restore it ( Ctrl + Shift + T )

                    • Again, you get the UTF-8 indication, for the Test-UTF8.txt file, at right of the status bar

                    • Re-run my script

                    => This time, we get again a correct summary, without any prompt !


                    Alan or other python gurus, feel free to improve this last version and/or test on various files if all the numbers shown are coherent !

                    Best Regards,

                      Hi All,

                      I"ve just realized that, up to now, I simply improved my script with an old version of N++ ( v7.9.2 ). I apologize…

                      So, I’m first going to update my last portable version, on my W10 laptop, from v8.5.4 to the v8.6.2 version and I will update my script and redo all the tests

                      See you later !

                      BR

                        :-(

                        You ought to close out these ancient versions…permanently.

                          Hello, @alan-kilborn and All,

                          I’e just discovered that, since the v8.0 N++ version, the UCS-2 BE BOM and UCS-2 LE BOM encodings are able to handle all the characters over the BMP. Thus, these encoding were renamed, respectively, as UTF-16 BE BOM and UTF-16 LE BOM !

                          Note that, with these two encodings, each character with code > \x{FFFF} is built with the surrogate pair mechanism, so with two 16-bytes chars. Consequently, the total number of characters in the buffer = 2 (BOM) + number of chars <= x{FFFF} x 2 + number of chars > x{FFFF} x 4

                          For example, the simple string Aé☀𝜜, without any EOL, in an UTF-16 BE encoding file, is coded with 12 bytes as :

                          
                          FE FF 00 41 00 E9 26 00 D8 35 DF 1C
                          ----- ----- ----- ----- -----------
                           BOM    A     é     ☀       𝜜
                          
                          

                          So, here is my final and updated version of the script, which works in all versions since the v8.0 one !

                            If you’re still working or doing tests wih a N++ version prior to v8.0 :

                            • First, change any sub-string UTF-16 with UCS-2, in the python script

                            • And, of course, do not forget to get rid of any character over \x{FFFF} in your UCS-2 BE/LE BOM encoded files, before using this script


                            Note, that the encoding problem, described two posts ago, when trying to encode any file, without a BOM, with a Encoding > Character Set > ... encoding, stll remains. Thus, the warning prompt is still present at the end of this final version !


                            Now, I’m going to update an old post where I explained the poor performance of the present summary feature. I’ll take the opportunity to include the instructions for understanding this improved script !

                              You have this line in your script:

                              line_list.append (' ' * ((Line_title - 37) / 2) + 'SUMMARY on ' + str(datetime.datetime.now()))
                              

                              I would suggest changing it to:

                              line_list.append (' ' * int((Line_title - 37) / 2) + 'SUMMARY on ' + str(datetime.datetime.now()))
                              

                              This is because, without the int, under Python3 we see the following error:

                              TypeError: can't multiply sequence by non-int of type 'float'

                                Hi, @alan-kilborn and All,

                                Just follow this link to find out why I decided to improve the View > Summary feature and to get the last version of the Python script, wich gives us a decent and exact Summary feature !

                                  I’m MIGHTY confused as to why you felt the need to reanimate a several-years-old topic/thread to continue discussing what you dedicated this current thread to…
                                  Why not just keep talking here?

                                    Hello, @alan-kilborn,

                                    Sorry to get you confused. I’ll try to explain why I wanted to continue on the other thread !

                                    • Firsly, I wanted to show from where and why my script came : the whole logic of the View > Summary needed to be completely rebuilt :-((

                                    • Secondly, I wanted to update these old posts. Indeed, at that time, the v7.9.1 N++ version was just released. So, I recently did some tests to verify if, consecutively to the encoding improvements of the v8.0 version, the global logic of the summary has been improved. Unfortunately, the View > Summary feature still gives wrong results, especially when the present file is a UTF-16 BE BOM or UTF-16 LE BOM encoded file :-((

                                    • Thus, it seemed obvious to me to continue on this thread and add the consecutive versions of my script !


                                    Now, I realized that I could have stayed with this new thread, and put a link to my initial post to help people to understand the reasons of this Python script !

                                    So, unless you’re terribly upset of my decision ( which would need a lot of modifications ) , I suppose that I’m going on to post the possible new versions of my script on the other thread !

                                    In order to get it more clear, I could simply rename this present thread as Summary feature improvement and rename the other thread as Emulation of the "Summary" feature with Python script

                                    Alan, what do you think of ?

                                    Best Regards,

                                    guy038

                                      what do you think of ?

                                      I wouldn’t bother trying to rename things at this point.
                                      It’s no problem simply because I was confused (that’s MY problem). :-)
                                      Carry on… :-)
