Hi Ron
Were you able to fix the issues and use the UDL?
Can you please share the current copy of the Journal file highlighting?
Thanks

@guy038 it looks good, however I don’t have an ANSI file so I can’t practice it

@PeterJones
Hello Peter,

Thanks a lot for your help.

Great ! Your procedure works !

I had troubles to reproduce it. I didn’t understand why it didn’t work the first times until I thought “Gosh ! The semicolons at the beginning of the lines are probably there to transform these lines to comments !”

Then I removed the semicolon which was the first character on the newly created line, and… Ha ha ! Won ! The button appeared ! And with its tooltip. And it works.

:)

Now it will be a piece of cake to modify the icon and put a small bitmap in its place using the last step of your explanation.

Thanks a lot again, Peter !

Cheers !

@guy038 said in what are list Regex available "named capture group" for find and replace in current version:

Refer to this link for further explanations :

Why not this LINK as well?:

@Ekopalypse Great ^^

This can be seen/changed in the “Shortcut Mapper”, the area of the Notepad++ software that allows customization of keycombos. Invoke it:

e70ecd40-0823-4b2c-9f47-9813225047dd-image.png

And change to the “Scintilla commands” tab and do some downscrolling:

6c679e17-4457-4a11-b6f7-28b8480625b7-image.png

So, as a user you probably don’t care about “Scintilla” or even know what it is – it is an editing component that Notepad++ embeds to get its real work (editing text!) accomplished.

Thus, you’d have to have some intuition about what “SCI_PARADOWN” means, but for the most part this isn’t too difficult.

BTW, you could remap this command to Ctrl+down if you wanted, but that keycombo is tied by default to a different command, so you’d have to remap the other command as well so as to not have a conflict.

Tanks a lot for your answer. I will try to use xxd as you mentonned.
I can also use hexedit but the size of the file (dump file .bin) is too big for hexedit so that i don"t have the whole file…
Therefore if you already used a similar application, I would be very interested in that.

Thanks and have a good week.

@Alan-Kilborn Thanks so much!

@Arnab-Mitra

See HERE.

Hello, @zean-yauh and All,

Do you mean something like that ?

SEARCH (?-s)\R(?!.+:)

REPLACE \x20

Tick the Wrap around option

Select the Regular expression search mode

Click on the Replace All button

Best Regards,

The two bytes that start the file on line 1, PK are a dead giveaway that this is a zipped archive file, as Peter indicated. Long ago, zip files were created with a program called pkzip.exe and their contents extracted with a program called pkunzip.exe. I think P was for the name of someone named “Phil”. I’ll really press my memory and say the K was for “Katz”. (I could cheat and google it, but it is often more fun to just try to pull stuff from memory – googling it is left as an exercise for interested readers)

@PeterJones

I have found an issue logged with the Snippets project on GitHUb where other users are having the same problem so hopefully it will be resolved soon.

@PeterJones

Alright, thank you for all your help.

Have a great day!

@Özgür-Ulusoy

Using a regular expression search like this
^Installing.+\)$ should do the job.

If you want to understand what this means, please read here.

@PeterJones i will try, thank you

Thanks heaps. Makes sense to me now.

@Gary-Winey

Do you mean

If so, then the checkbox on the right controls that. It tells you this when you hover over that box:
c4c1b4bf-9ec7-4476-ac7f-67c761911e0e-image.png

It’s also documented in the usermanual

(I showed a screenshot on the Find tab of the dialog, but it’s the same on the Find and Replace tab as well)

@Meatball-Football ,

If you want to filter which files are searched, the expectation was to use Find in Files rather than the Find feature’s Find in All Opened Documents command – and that Find in Files does have a filter syntax described in the hover text and in more detail at npp-user-manual.org in the section “Find in Files”

@PeterJones Thanks for taking the time to reply. I have the same understanding as you but still have to make the effort. Fortunately, I only have to log the attempt then push the matter further up the team ladder.

There is a simple solution: copy and rename the “example” files.

Notepad++ is looking for files called “langs.xml” and “stylers.xml” and both are in the programs home directory (with the “exe” file), except, they are named “langs.MODEL.xml” and “stylers.MODEL.xml” respectively.

Simply make copies in the same directory and rename both copies, remove the part that says “-copy” and “.model” from the name so they both are named"langs.xml" and “stylers.xml” and whala! It works!

These “model” versions are meant to be examples, to model the method of use for cutomization and serve as backups in case you bork the files once you edit/customize them, that way you’ll always have the backups handy to fix or start fresh.
