    Corrupted Session Starting in Notepad++ v8.6.5, it will store session.xml.inCaseOfCorruption.bak next to session.xml, and will automatically use that if session.xml is corrupted. However, if you ever find that you open Notepad++ (especially after an update or a system crash) and find that the files opened weren’t in the same state as when you let them, you can try this procedure: Exit Notepad++ Windows Explorer, go to %AppData%\Notepad++ (or in your appropriate config-file location if you aren’t using AppData for config) Rename session.xml to session.xml--keep Copy session.xml.inCaseOfCorruption.bak to session.xml Run Notepad++ → If it’s now showing the right copy of your files, great! If not, exit Notepad++, delete session.xml, and rename session.xml--keep back to session.xml .

    @musicpanda @musicpanda said: I got an error popup “Authenticode check failed: signature or signing certificate are not recognized”. That was not really a problem: I just clicked the message away and the file opened in Notepad++. Weird - in the past (pre v8.0 N++ versions), when N++ was showing that security message, it then couldn’t continue and quit (that was a msg used for checking of the dynamically loaded Scintilla SciLexer.dll). to 8.9.8.1) Notepad is still coming to the front but the file is no longer opened. Are you using a shortened notepad++.exe file path in the AstroGrep settings? I mean e.g. C:\Progra~\Notepad++\Notepad++.exe . If so, just upgrade to the latest v8.9.9.1, where that thing is fixed.

    SmartMath is more than just a calculator. SmartMath natively supports one-dimensional lists/arrays (inspired by SpeQ Mathematics), aggregation functions (inspired by Python: sum, sort, filter and so on), time values (inspired by NumLock Calculator) and complex numbers. Since lists/arrays are natively supported, SmartMath does not need Python’s map function. Instead, it directly calculates such expressions as 100 + (5, 15, 30), sin((pi/4, pi/3, pi/2)) and so on. There is a joke about the C programming language that its creators stopped developing it once C could compile code that no human could understand. Well, here are a few expressions that work in SmartMath: 1e1i++i v = (5-+-1, 1+-+5) v[0]i(33) v[0]%**v[1] upd(a,n,x) = (a[0:n], x, a[n+1:]) g=(): 9.8; g=g() Finally, here are a few examples that looked interesting enough to be included into the “SmartMath,md”: check_index(a,n) = filter(n, t: t>=0 && t<len(a))[0] upd(a,n,x) = check_index(a,n)*0 + (a[0:n], x, a[n+1:]) Do you still think that SmartMath is just a calculator? ;) The latest binaries are available here: 32-bit (x86): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1QNtDeN09VdfpZsfD6dDQ5j8xvcPd-1pO/view?usp=drive_link 64-bit (x64) https://drive.google.com/file/d/1a0In5EZuESV4L4jH_b21fHAfoyAfUiDR/view?usp=drive_link And the online version: https://d0vgan.github.io/AkelPad-Smart-Math/ Have fun!

    That’s a clever little experiment! I never really thought about using regular expressions to represent mathematical patterns like multiples of 3, but it makes sense when you look at the binary sequence. Definitely a fun way to explore just how powerful regex can be beyond ordinary text searching.
