I’m not sure that this feature aren’t implemented but I can’t find it:
– search window preview (with line numbers and click to go to the line in editor)
– search in line mode (select whole line when match found on line)
– copy all matches (or lines in line mode) to the clipboard
– delete all matches (or lines in line mode)
– inverse delete (lines in line mode) – delete all but not matches

To display all found lines as click-able links in the output bar
works only with ‘Find in files’ method.
Unfortunately this doesn’t works with ‘normal’ single file find method.
I have missed this myself.

I think the way EmEditor goes is utilizing [Bookmark All]

And then use the bookmark commands to jump between lines.
(don’t ask me what to do if you already used bookmarks for other issues in that file. You have to clear them beforehand.)

One would use regex find to match your search string and everything around I guess:
(?-s)^.*string to find.*$

Press Ctrl+C after search is done.

Press Del key after search is done.

Again you can go the bookmark road.

More bookmark commands are hidden in the “Tools > All Commands… >> Edit > Bookmarks” menu.

EmEditor Professional v13 beta 7 (12.9.6) released!
Today, we are releasing EmEditor Professional v13 beta 7 (12.9.6).

Updates from beta 6 include:
– Cut Bookmarked Lines, Copy Bookmarked Lines, and Select Bookmarked Lines commands were added.
– The Prompt when End of Document is Reached check box was added to the Search tab of the Customize dialog box.
– The Save Settings check box was added to the Open dialog box.
– When a user clicks on the left edge or the line numbers, a menu related to bookmarks appears now.

See http://www.emeditor.com/modules/newbb/viewforum.php?forum=12

You can also use the new “Quick Launch” feature in v13, see
http://www.emeditor.com/modules/feature1/rewrite/tc_41.html
to find all bookmarks commands.

So you could use:
* “Edit > Bookmarks > Clear”
* Search
* [Bookmark All]
* Invert Bookmarks
* Delete bookmarked lines
or
* Extract to new file
*

Tip:
You can modify every menu or create a pop-up menu
to collect all wanted commands to a single place.

Hi Stefan,

Yes I know but this isn’t user friendly. One checkbox “Line mode” in search dialog is simple and faster. My mother doesn’t understand regex :-).

Press Ctrl+C after search is done. Press DEL after search is done.

This copy (or delete) only one selected match not all matches. Or I need beta v13?

Again you can go the bookmark road.

Yes I can but this isn’t usefully because:
– bookmark works only with whole line
– I must clear own bookmark.

Thank you for your answer.

Point 1 can be check-marked as solved I think.

Stefan > Sorry, I don’t know how to do this.

In Find in Files dialog box,
by the File types dropdown list,
please click the “>” button,
then click “Current File”,
to show the current file name.

You can then click “>” again
and click “Save as Default”
if you want to save this settings.

That really works! Thank you Yutaka!

Note:
you must have an already existing file to let this work.
For just fresh created Untitled* documents this feature is greyed out.

On an click at [Find] you will get a click-able list of lines with matched finds.

With “[X] Use Output Bar” enabled you will get that list in the “View > Output” -panel
With that option disabled you will get a new document with that output.

If you click at the hyperlink in such a line you will be forwarded to that line in the corresponding file.

Example:

A search for “but” in zmeskalk will output:

H:TEMPUntitled.txt(1): I’m not sure that this feature aren’t implemented but I can’t find it:
H:TEMPUntitled.txt(6): – inverse delete (lines in line mode) – delete all but not matches

Solved, zmeskalk ?

It isn’t user friendly but functional. OK, solved, thank you.
