I had tried \r\n @, with an empty space between the “n” and the “@”. Don’t really know why I put the space there. Thanks for your help!

Hello, @semicodin, The correct regex to match any range of characters, even on several lines, with the syntax : - <script .....>................... </script> or : - <script> ........................ </script> is (?s-i)<(script)( |>).*?</\1> Notes : The initial part (?s-i) are modifiers, which forces the regex engine to consider that : The special dot character can match, absolutely, any character ( Standard or End of Line characters ) The search will be performed in a sensitive way ( = non-insensitive ) Then, the first part <(script)( |>) tries to match, either, the string <script> OR the string <script, followed with a space character. Note that the word script, embedded in round parentheses, stands for group 1 The third part </\1> matches the exact string </script> And the second part .*? represents the shortest range of any character between part 1 and part 3 IMPORTANT : Don’t forgot that this simple regex supposes that no other block <script......</script> is nested, inside the initial block !

I realized why I don’t have those folders, it’s because I use the portable version of N++. There’s a backup folder in the N++ folder, but there’s only one much older file in there. Is there ANY way I can get this back?

Hi, @chris-adamos, No problem with regexes, indeed ! So : Get back to the very beginning of your file ( Ctrl + Origin ) Open the Replace dialog ( Ctrl + H ) SEARCH (?-si)^DATA.+ REPLACE $0 "p:120 - 4 beats" with a space character, right after $0 Select the regular expression search mode Click, once, on the Replace All button OR several times on the Replace button Notes : The first part, of the search, (?-is) are modifiers, which ensure you that : The search will be performed, in a sensitive way ( = non-insensitive ) The dot special character means a single standard character, only ( not an End of Line char. ) Then, the ^DATA.+ part searches for the exact string DATA, at beginning of line, followed by the longest, non-empty range of any standard character In replacement, the $0 syntax, just rewrites the entire searched string Then the "p:120 - 4 beats" string, preceded with a space character, is simply added, to each matched line An other formulation could be : SEARCH (?-si)^DATA.+\K REPLACE \x20"p:120 - 4 beats" Notes : The \K syntax, at the end of the regex, forces the regex engine to forget everything matched, before \K. So, it only matches the zero length string, at the end of each matched line In replacement, the string \x20"p:120 - 4 beats" is, therefore, added, at the end of each matched line Note that \x20 is, simply, the hexadecimal form of the space character IMPORTANT : Due to the special \K syntax, you must use, exclusively, the Replace All button !

ohh okay thank you. then it must be a different software that person is using. i think its called Brackets for mac. will brackets be able to do that?

I just checked an older device, the folder is from 2013 but NPP is the current version. Since the docu is so old an no one maintains it, it is likely that @donho no longer includes it in the newer version releases. This could be a project for an enthusiast…
