plugin that support auto-numbering

[StoopidoMan]

@Alan-Kilborn
One more thing 😬 if possible add this feature: pressing backspace would stop NumberingAutomagically, here is what I mean:

1- test
2- test
3- (here if you entered backspace it would remove [3-] instead of pressing backspace 3 times to stop NumberingAutomagically )

I think many would love that since that how Microsoft word Functions, And again, THANK YOU🙏

@StoopidoMan and anyone else still interested,

I modded the script to add 2 new functionalities:

• Bullet lists now supported (only “+” signs accepted at the moment)
• If you create a new line but have not written anything after the bullet or number (anything other than non-word chars) then the list ends, adding no new list item. This is similar to how Word handles lists (where pressing “Enter” twice ends the list).

Code below:

class NA(object):

    def __init__(self):
        self.eol = ['\r\n', '\r', '\n'][editor.getEOLMode()]
        editor.callback(self.callback_sci_CHARADDED, [SCINTILLANOTIFICATION.CHARADDED])

    def callback_sci_CHARADDED(self, args):
        if chr(args['ch']) == self.eol[-1]:
            caret_pos = editor.getCurrentPos()
            curr_line_num = editor.lineFromPosition(caret_pos)
            if curr_line_num > 0:
                prev_line = editor.getLine(curr_line_num - 1)
                m = re.match(r'\s*(\d+)([^\w\r\n]+)', prev_line)
                if m:
                    full = str(m.group(1)) + str(m.group(2))
                    full_prev = prev_line.rstrip('\r\n')

Tiny improvement (IMO) for bullet list: now it only copies spaces, no punctuation:

from Npp import editor, SCINTILLANOTIFICATION
import re

class NA(object):

    def __init__(self):
        self.eol = ['\r\n', '\r', '\n'][editor.getEOLMode()]
        editor.callback(self.callback_sci_CHARADDED, [SCINTILLANOTIFICATION.CHARADDED])

    def callback_sci_CHARADDED(self, args):
        if chr(args['ch']) == self.eol[-1]:
            caret_pos = editor.getCurrentPos()
            curr_line_num = editor.lineFromPosition(caret_pos)
            if curr_line_num > 0:
                prev_line = editor.getLine(curr_line_num - 1)
                m = re.match(r'\s*(\d+)([^\w\r\n]+)', prev_line)
                if m:
                    full = str(m.group(1)) + str(m.group(2))
                    full_prev = prev_line.rstrip('\r\n')
                    if (len(full_prev) > len(full)):
                    # if m:
                        prev_number = int(m.group(1))
                        symbols_after = m.group(2)
                        new_number = prev_number + 1
                        text_to_insert = str(new_number) + symbols_after
                        editor.insertText(caret_pos, text_to_insert)
                        new_caret_pos = caret_pos + len(text_to_insert)
                        editor.setEmptySelection(new_caret_pos)
                        return
                m = re.match(r'\s*(\+)([\s*]+)', prev_line)
                if m:
                    full = str(m.group(1)) + str(m.group(2))
                    full_prev = prev_line.rstrip('\r\n')
                    if (len(full_prev) > len(full)):
                    # if m:
                        bullet = m.group(1)
                        symbols_after = m.group(2)
                        text_to_insert = bullet + symbols_after
                        editor.insertText(caret_pos, text_to_insert)
                        new_caret_pos = caret_pos + len(text_to_insert)
                        editor.setEmptySelection(new_caret_pos)
                        return
