      Hello!

      I have created a Notepad++ file with 452036 lines (36,1 MB) of textfiles, from HDD directories, folders and files.
      Folders have this in folder name --=[ (any letters, numbers following)
      Drives have their names like this [ A ] [ WD-1 ] etc.
      Here some screendumps of HDD and folders.
      01.png 02.png 03.png 04.png 05.png
      The directories are in 5 levels of subdirectories.
      Each HDD is named [ A ] [ B ] or [ WD-1] [ WD-2 ] etc. and file names, like filename.jpg, filename.txt etc.
      Doing a normal search I can find the folder, files or HDD drive name, but not listed together in the same search.

      How can I do a search that results will include and highlights the file name, the folder and the HDD name [ WD-1 ] [ WD-2 ]?
      So if I do a search like this:
      filename
      I would like to get the result that includes
      filename, folder and in what [ ] HDD drive the file and folder sits.

      I don’t know if this can be done but it would be of great help if it could.
      As of now I have to scroll forever to find the right HDD…

      Thanks and best regards,
      pellelin

        @pellelin ,

        Your vague descriptions of text don’t make it clear to me what your text is actually like.

        Could you use the ``` notation (from the </> button on the post toolbar) to put some example text? Like

        ```
        [ A ] blah blah blah filename blah blah
        [ B ] blah blah blah notsamefile blah blah
        [ WD-40 ] is good for cleaning hardware
        ```
        

        which will render like

        [ A ] blah blah blah filename blah blah
        [ B ] blah blah blah notsamefile blah blah
        [ WD-40 ] is good for cleaning hardware
        

        In the mean time, assuming you wanted to highlight the entire line that includes specific filename, it could be done with:

        • FIND = (?-s)^.*filename.*$
        • SEARCH MODE = Regular Expression

        If you actually only want to highlight part of each line, you’re going to have to give example text that reasonably matches your actual data, and then do a screenshot showing which you’d like to highlight given a specific search example.

          Hello!

          Many thanks for your reply, much appreciated!

          [ WD-1 ] [ WD-2 ] etc. is the name of the drives given by me.
          Windows assigns the drives as (D:) (E:) (F:) (G:) etc.
          I use a software that creates the directory list, with chosen levels 5, 6 or more if needed.
          I create a directory list of each HDD and then combine each list to a large .txt file, to do the search for files from.
          Many large HDDs, many directories, thousands of files = a huge .txt file…

          Edit/ Forgot to thank you for the Regular expression, thanks!

            Hello, @pellelin, @peterjones and All,

            Presently, in France, it’s about 10h30 and, unfortunately, I’m not free because I have a dentist appointment -(( But , this afternoon, @pellelin, I’ll be able to give you a solution. derived from this thread :

            https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/topic/27535/new-displaying-of-the-search-results-panel

            I’ll create a new post where I’ll find out a way to insert, for each line outputed in the Search Result panel :

            • The drive name

            • The complete path

            • The file name

            • And of course, the text of each line containing occurrences of your search


            The trick is to use the notepad++ option Edit > Line operations > Reverse line order because the replacement regular expression needs to get all the lines of a specific file right BEFORE the line containing this specific file name ! Then, after the replacement throughout all the search results, you just need to run again the Edit > Line operations > Reverse line order option to get back the right displaying !

            In the meantime, before I can post my own solution, @peterjones or others fellows will probably be able to elabore this regex replacement for you :-))

            See you later,

            Best Regards,

            guy038

                Hi, @pellelin, @peterjones and All,

                @pellelin, see my new version at this location :

                https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/post/105618


                May be, you do not agree exactly with the displaying and/or you would like the number of hits as well ! No problem : just tell me about it

                Cheers,

                guy038

                  Hello!
                  I understand that you spent time on a solution for me, much appreciated!
                  But I don’t understand much of what you suggest, I’m not all that Notepad++ savvy.
                  I think I’ll stick with the solution I now use, open Notepad++, drag all (26) HDD txt’s into it, then do a search using “Find in All Opened Documents” and it does the job.
                  Not so elegant though, I was hoping for a solution with a search in one single txt with all HDDs directories combined.

                  Best regards,
                  pellelin

                    Hello, @pellelin and All,

                    You said in a previous post :

                    [ WD-1 ] [ WD-2 ] etc. is the name of the drives given by me.
                    Windows assigns the drives as (D:) (E:) (F:) (G:) etc.
                    I use a software that creates the directory list, with chosen levels 5, 6 or more if needed.
                    I create a directory list of each HDD and then combine each list to a large .txt file, to do the search for files from.
                    Many large HDDs, many directories, thousands of files = a huge .txt file…

                    So, I suppose that you have 26 files, named WD-1.txt, WD-2.txt and so on till WD-26.txt that you combined in a single huge file, let’s say, Total.txt


                    BTW, the best way to combine several text files is to use the DOS command

                    copy WD-1.txt + WD-2.txt + WD-3.txt + .... + WD-26.txt Total.txt
                    

                    Or, if all your texts are in a same folder, once you’re located within that folder, use simply the DOS ommnand :

                    copy *.* Total.txt
                    

                    Now, if I try to interpret your text :

                    [ WD-1 ]
                    
                    F:\Example\

                    And so on, till the WD-26.txt


                    Now, I do not understand exactly your problem ! Once all these WD-?? files are combined in the single file Total.txt, searching for Malmö in normal search mode, within the Total.txt, will automatically redirect you to the line :

                    G:\--=[ Video\--=[ Lowres\Family\1080x720\Malmö.mp4
                    

                    Where it’s easy to notice that the Malmö video file is located on G:\Video\Lowres\Family\1080x720 !


                    So, in brief, I guess we just do not understand each other ! Could you give me some more information, if you think it’s worth it ?

                      Hello!

                      Yes, when search for Malmö in Total.txt I find G:--=[ Video--=[ Lowres\Family\1080x720\Malmö.mp4
                      Forget about the (G:) by Windows assigned drive letter as the actual HDDs are external hard drives.
                      What drive [ WD-? ] is Malmö.mp4 on? It is located somewhere between [ WD-1 ] and [ WD-26 ].

                      Best regards,

                          Hi, @pellelin and All,

                          Continuation and end of my post !

                          • Now, open the Replace dialog ( Ctrl + H )

                          • Uncheck all box options

                            • FIND (?-si)^(\u:.+)(?=(?s:.+?)^(\x5B WD-\d+ \x5D)$)|^\x5B WD-\d+ \x5D\R

                            • REPLACE ?2\2\t\1

                          ( Note that this present regex replacement is completely different, of course, from the solution given in this post https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/post/105618 ! )

                          • Check the Wrap around option

                          • Select the Regular expression search mode

                          • Click on the Replace All button

                          • Then, re-run the Edit > Line operations > Reverse line order option ( IMPORTANT )

                          • Finally, save this new Total.txt file for future study within N++ or Excel !

                          Your new Total.txt file ( the expected OUTPUT text ) should be as below :

                          This time, simply searching for the word Malmö would lead you to the line :

                          [ WD-2 ]	G:\--=[ Video\--=[ Lowres\Family\1080x720\Malmö.mp4
                          

                          where the true drive [ WD-2 ] is clearly reported at beginning of line !


                          Of course, this is just a first draft ! Changes are certainly to be expected !

                          See you later
