@Tom-Hall

have npp6.0 available and tried to replicate this issue, wasn’t successful.
What I’ve did is

copied your sample text double click on one instance of pvtz pressed ctrl+h put in abcd in “replace with” field (“find what” was already filled) used replace or replace all and all instances of pvtz got replaced by abcd - as expected.

Can you confirm this behavior by using same steps?
Btw. do you have any plugins installed?

Notepad++ uses the native Scintilla YAML (Yet Another Multicolumn Layout) lexer.

@Lionel-Modra

afaik you can’t to this with the builtin file dialog but the explorer plugin has such functionality.

@Claudia-Frank, thanks. The trick with AppData directory renaming worked. It seems that different configuration files conflicted.

@JackshowX

has been already addressed here.

@Jean-Braithwaite

there was an incident in the past which was solved by renaming %APPDATA%\notepad++ directory.
It will be recreated but this could mean that you might have to copy over files from old to new directory.

Hello,

“is there a keyboard shortcut to move the current tab left or right (or even all the way to the right)?”

Currently there isn’t such command available thus there is also no way to have a shortcut.
The good news is that in the new N++ version (when it becomes available) this commands will be available.

this bug on standart setup. u see my gif? no bbcode!

@David-Thorpe

you said you are using pure html. If this is the case, the Preview HTML plugin maybe the solution.
Install using plugin manager, open it, edit your current doc and you get immediate update how it looks like.

@bob-marpy

if the lines are formatted that name part can be selected using column mode, then
put cursor infront of name, scroll down to the end of list, press SHIFT+ALT and click
to the right part of the name and this column is selected. CTRL+C to copy.

If it isn’t formatted, either format it or you may think about Analyse plugin.

A DOS script master could probably do this with only shell commands in the batch file, but it is likely done easier by invoking some scripting language like AWK, PERL, or Python. It might even be possible using NPP, but I wouldn’t try to do it that way.

Hello Andrew,

An other formulation, which separates any text in blocks of five characters long, whatever they are, would be :

SEARCH .{5}(?=.)

REPLACE $0\x20

Notes :

The .{5} syntax matches for five consecutive standard characters

I added the look-ahead form (?=.) , just to ensure that NO extra-space will be added, at the end of each long-line scan

The $0 syntax represents the match of the whole regex, that is to say, any block of five characters

And \x20 is, simply, the hexadecimal form of the space character

Hello, Dusty Pulver,

An other simple possibility, that does not need any plugin, would be :

Sort your file, with the native N+++ sort ( menu option Edit - Line Operations - Sort Lines Lexicographically Ascending )

Move to the beginning of your file ( CTRL + Origin )

Open the Replace dialog ( CTRL + H )

Perform the S/R, below, in Regular expression search mode :

SEARCH : (?-s)^(.*\R)\1+

REPLACE : \1

Notes :

The (?-s) modifier ensures that the dot will match standard characters, only, even if you previously checked the . matches newline option !

The \R stands for any kind of EOL character(s)

Best Regards,

guy038

UDL, afaik - no.
Python Script plugin and proper script - I guess.

npp doesn’t know anything about mingw as well as nppexec.
You need to provide the information where to find the libraries, headers etc…
The example above should give you an idea what needs to be done.

// c Compiles without linking. // Dname=definition Defines a symbol (as with #define). // E Stop after the preprocessing stage. // g Produce debugging information. // I Searches the given directory for "includes". // llibname Searches the specified library when linking. // ofilename Names the output file. // -help Provides (some) help. // -version Displays the version number. g++ --version // print compiler version ENV_SET PATH = D:\ProgramData\Compiler\MinGW\bin;$(SYS.PATH) // extend path variable //g++ -Wall -g -std=c++11 -o $(NAME_PART).exe $(FULL_CURRENT_PATH) -Ld D:\ProgramData\Compiler\MinGW\lib\libshlwapi.a g++ -Wall -g -std=c++11 -o $(NAME_PART).exe $(FULL_CURRENT_PATH) -ID:\Repositories\boost\ $(NAME_PART).exe

@Leo-Nicholson

did you check whether one of already created udl fit your needs?

@usha-mandava

npp (or better plugin manager) sends an http get request to sourceforge server, nothing special. (TCP/PORT 80)
Could it be that you have multiple network interfaces in your pc? Routing issue?
Can you open sourceforge website on that pc?
