blablabla - 380329 bytes - 9/7/2019 7:47:16 PM

i want copy only this part xxxx@xx.xxx:kkkkkkk for each txt and paste into only new txt like this:

xxxx@xx.xxx:kkkkkkk
xxxx@xx.xxx:kkkkkkk

is it possible to do this??

Hello, @pinuzzu99 and All,

Here is a solution, which involves regular expressions !

First copy your input text ( Ctrl + A then Ctrl + C )
Open a new tab ( Ctrl + N )
Paste your text ( Ctrl + V )
Open the Replace dialog ( Ctrl + H )
SEARCH (?-s)^(\h*\w+@.+?:.+?):.+
REPLACE \1
Tick, preferably, the Wrap around option
Select the Regular expression serach mode
Click on the Replace All button

Et voilà !

Notes :

First, the part (?-s) means that the regex dot symbol . will match only a single standard character( Not a line-break )
Then the part ^ is the default zero-length assertion, matching any beginning of line location
The part \h*\w+@ part looks for possible horizontal blank chars \h*, followed with any non-null range of word chars \w+, followed with the literal char @
Then, the part .+?: finds the shortest non-null range of chars till a colon :
Now, the part .+? matches the shortest non-null range of chars, till …
The last part :.+, which represents the second : of each line, followed with all the remaining chars of current scanned line
As the global part \h*\w+@.+?:.+? is embedded in parentheses, it’s stored as group 1, which will be re-written as \1, only, in the replacement zone

ok i have find one way to this!
open cmd and write: for %f in (*.txt) do type “%f” >> combined.txt

this command join all txt content into new one txt. and this it’s ok.
now i want purge all content.
on my new combined.txt i want delete all content except a line that contains:
data: xxxx@xx.xxx:kkkkkkk
this value data:xxx… repeats itself and it’s always different.
how to purge combined.txt ??

guy038

Hi, @pinuzzu99 and All,

Ah, OK, I see !

Now, in your combined.txt file, if we consider the general case, below :

.....
.....
A aaaa@aa.aaa:aaaaaaa
.....
.....
B aaaa@aa.aaa:kkkkkkk
.....
.....
C aaaa@aa.aaa:zzzzzzz
.....
.....
D xxxx@xx.xxx:aaaaaaa
.....
.....
E xxxx@xx.xxx:kkkkkkk
.....
.....
F xxxx@xx.xxx:zzzzzzz
.....
.....
G zzzz@zz.zzz:aaaaaaa
.....
.....
H zzzz@zz.zzz:kkkkkkk
.....
.....
I zzzz@zz.zzz:zzzzzzz
.....
.....

Firstly, which line, from A to I, do you want to keep ?
Secondly, do you want to delete any text, of the remaining lines, after the second colon : included ?

Cheers,

guy038

i want delete all text (or lines) excluding lines:
A aaaa@aa.aaa:aaaaaaa
B aaaa@aa.aaa:kkkkkkk
C aaaa@aa.aaa:zzzzzzz
D xxxx@xx.xxx:aaaaaaa
etc

pinuzzu99

or also: how to select all line with value:
data: aaaa@aa.aaa:aaaaaaa
data: bbb@bb.cn:bbbbbbb
data: ccc@cc.cns:mssgahsk
etc
and after paste into new txt?

guy038

Hi, @pinuzzu99 and All,

So, apparently, you want to keep all lines beginning with an e-mail address, don’t you ?

In that case, here is a regex S/R to delete any line, which does not begin with an e-mail address, with possible leading blank chars :

SEARCH (?-s)^(?!\h*\w+@).+\R

REPLACE Leave Empty

Notes :

The part (?!\h*\w+@) is a negative look-ahead structure that search for the literal @ char, preceded by word chars and possible blank chars ( Space or tabulation chars ) This structure returns true and valids the overall regex only when an e-mail address cannot be found
In that case, the part .+ grabs, from beginning of lines ( ^ ), all standard characters, of the current line scanned
Finally, the part \R matches all types of line-breaks ( \r\n for Windows files, \n for Unix files and \r for Mac files )
These entire lines are deleted, as the replace*ent zone is empty

Now, here is the method to select specific e-mail addresses, from the remaining lines and copy them in a new document.

Let’s suppose that you want to search for all the occurrences of the exact address ccc@cc.cns:mssgahsk :

Open the Mark dialog ( Search > Mark... menu item )
First, tick the option Bookmark line, if necessary
Click on the Clear All marks button ( IMPORTANT )
Un-tick the Purge for each search option, if necessary
Select the Normal search mode ( IMPORTANT )
Tick the Match case option, preferably
Tick the Wrap around option
SEARCH ccc@cc.cns:mssgahsk
Click on the Mark All button
You may change the Find what : contents and repeat the last 2 points, in order to bookmark other specific addresses, as well !
Now, select the Search > Bookmark > Copy Bookmarked Lines menu option
Finally, open a new document ( Ctrl + N )
And paste all the bookmarked lines, in this new tab ( Ctrl + V )

Best Regards,

first method work but it remains only one address… everything else is deleted!
i want keep ALL address mail and passw like xxx@xx.xxx:dddd

second method it relates only to a specific email address, instead I have several, all different…

@pinuzzu99

Hmm. This forum doesn’t exist for someone else to do your work for you. Some hints about how a feature of Notepad++ works, yes, but really, don’t expect to say “I need this very specific thing” and expect someone to hand it to you.

You’re expected to try things on your own, and present your (failed) results here and then you’ll probably receive help on just that aspect.

But wholesale problem statement and solution provided…nope.

pinuzzu99

works well with (on reg ex):
find what: (?-s)^(?!\h*\w+@).
replace with:

bt some mail is of the type:
name.gress@mail.com
and the first part of the email is deleted (in this specific case the term “name”)…
how to leave full email address?

pinuzzu99

I have found this that serves my purpose:
\S+?@\S+?.\S+
this regex select all my address@mail.com:numberletters

now i would like to add part of string to delete the rest of the text in my txt…

guy038

Hello, @pinuzzu99 and All,

Well, it’s just up to you ! All your previous e-mail addresses did not contain any dot before the @ char. Thus, I supposed that there were only word characters !

With , your last example name.gress@mail.com, of course, the regex S/R should become :

SEARCH (?-s)^(?!\h*[\w.]+@).+\R

REPLACE Leave EMPTY

Then, you said :

now i would like to add part of string to delete the rest of the text in my txt

I’m sorry but it’s really not clear to my mind !

Please, give us a sample of your input text, with various e-mail adresses and show us the output text you are expecting to, from your present input example !

Just a hint : when replying, type your input and output text as code, using the symbol </> , as below :

See you later,

Cheers,

guy038

i want delete all text and line except

with your string not work for me.
work with (?-s)^(?!\h*[\w.]+@).
but i have this result:



 pamfhdjosa.mardedyly@ydefgo.com:cloggr4trr





 cartgrtgrg@gfgbil.com:1r5yyr78115






 jatrhtrh@grthil.com:mrthhrhmm17






 lathmhjm@hhhjail.com:p456456inha

empty line between emails and also one space before any mail address.
I hope it helps me to complete the correct string!

guy038

Hi, @pinuzzu99 and All,

Ok ! So, assuming your short example, below :

.: data :.
=================================
asda pamfhdjosa.mardedyly@ydefgo.com:cloggr4trr
=================================
 
ubba:/my-wallets.zip                               379912     2019-08-07T02:52:11+02:00
.: data :.
=================================
asda cartgrtgrg@gfgbil.com:1r5yyr78115
Pry Statinf: Kree
=================================
 
ubba:/crypto.zip                                   380547     2019-08-07T02:50:07+02:00
.: data :.
=================================
asda jatrhtrh@grthil.com:mrthhrhmm17
Pry Statinf: Kree
=================================
 
ubba:/wallets.zip                                  379807     2019-08-07T02:58:33+02:00
.: data :.
=================================
asda lathmhjm@hhhjail.com:p456456inha
Pry Statinf: Kree

The following regex S/R :

SEARCH (?-s)^(?!\h*[\w.\x20]+@).*\R?

REPLACE Leave EMPTY

gives this output text :

asda pamfhdjosa.mardedyly@ydefgo.com:cloggr4trr
asda cartgrtgrg@gfgbil.com:1r5yyr78115
asda jatrhtrh@grthil.com:mrthhrhmm17
asda lathmhjm@hhhjail.com:p456456inha

Are you expecting this result ?

I simply suppose that the non-null part of an e-mail address, located before the @ char, may contain :

Any word character
A dot symbol
A space character

Best Regards,

guy038

pinuzzu99

thank you very much. excellent result. I’d still like if you could also delete the first part of the text in front of the email from:
asda address@mail.com: mrthhrhmm17
until you get:
address@mail.com: mrthhrhmm17
this of course for all the email addresses listed …

guy038

Hi, @pinuzzu99 and All,

No problem ! If we assume that there are no space char in e-mail addressses ( generally the case ! ) and further on, in current scanned line, we just need to add an alternative which, implicitly, looks for lines with an e-mail address and deletes from beginning of current line till a non-null range of space characters. Thus, the following regex S/R :

SEARCH (?-s)^(?!\h*[\w.\x20]+@).*\R?|^.*?\x20+

REPLACE Leave EMPTY

And you’ll obtain your expected result :

pamfhdjosa.mardedyly@ydefgo.com:cloggr4trr
cartgrtgrg@gfgbil.com:1r5yyr78115
jatrhtrh@grthil.com:mrthhrhmm17
lathmhjm@hhhjail.com:p456456inha
