run python script to multiple opened files

YUNG

Hello all, i am new to python and wrtoe a simple script to automate some boring task in text files.
The script been tested and ready to go and i am wondering is there a way to run through the script to all opened files instead of running the script one by one on each opened files.

Cheers
Ken

I assume you are using the pythonscript plugin.
If this is the case, then get all open files with notepad.getFiles().
This returns a list of tuples containing (filename, bufferid, index, viewid).
Loop over it - done.

@Ekopalypse thank you :)

from Npp import *

def forEachFile(func):
	for file in notepad.getFiles():
		notepad.activateBufferID(file[1])
		func()

def printFilename():
	print notepad.getCurrentFilename()

# store the current buffer id
currentBufferID = notepad.getCurrentBufferID()
# run our printFilename function on each open file
forEachFile(printFilename)
# restore the current buffer from the stored buffer id.
notepad.activateBufferID(currentBufferID)
