Go to “properties for current configuration” and activate the wanted brackets, such as (),[],{}………
In Editor,place the cursor at the first backet and press Ctrl+Shift+] to select the string enclosed in brackets. Here a small GIF.
I guess you missed the first \ character in “replace” .Please see my screenshot. It’s \J ,instead of J.
I don’t know if this will help you:
Find: (‘)(.+?)(’)
Replace: \J “\1”.replace(/‘/g,”[[“) + “\2″.replace(/, /g,”]],[[“) + “\3″.replace(/’/g,”]]”)
Please go to menu “Tool-customize”, In the Customize dialog box, go to History and you can find “Number of Recent Searches:”. By default, it’s 20, you can change to the number you want, eg. 50.
As I known, in Emeditor, you can search ”
[[:cntrl:]]
”
in Replace dialog by using Regular Expression. Then replace with “null”(empty) or blank. All non printable will be deleted or changed to space. [[:cntrl:]] is posix character which means non-printable character.I’m sorry for my mistake. This function works good. My file has problem (lots of unexpected empty line). please ignore this topic. Thanks!
Yes, wish to add “Spaces” to the button “Marks”, not only half-width space, but also full-width space.
Hello,Yutaka Sung, Thanks for your quick reply.
I made an incorrect description. My second question is: in the Replacement Expression
\J "\0".substr( 0, 5 )
Besides .substr() in the \J expression, if possible to use other Functions.For example:\J "\0".Left( 0, 5 ) \J "\0".Right( 0, 5 ) \J "\0".Upper( ).......In the help system, only .substr is mentioned.
It’s hard to say it’s important or not. Most case, 9 is enough. Occasionlly I need more.
For my current case, I use “batch replace all” function to resolve it and get successful.During looking for help from Google, I saw someone mentioned Notepad++ support more than 9.
Hello, Tobi, You’re right. Handle this in Excel is very easy. But EmEditor can handle a big file faster, for example 100MB size….
While editing XML/Ini file (for example, I want to translate the found strings to other language, or change the strings), if there’s a seprate window which is allowed copying & pasting, it will improve lots of efficiency.
Thanks for your response! What I mean is, if multi-selection are some texts(such as by Find->Select All), wish to have a diaolg to edit them visually and more effieciently.
If selections are number, as you mentioned, use Alt+N can handle them easily. But for texts, after Select All, we can’t edit them as number.New wishes:
Now we can do multi-selection by pressing [Ctrl] key. I wonder if possible to use “search result” as multi-selection area. Search function is powerful enough, if use search result directly, we can reduce time to do selection.
And then, use a seperate dialog to edit these texts or numbers mentioned above by myself, it will save lots of time while editing large files!Sorry, I had find the reason: in the properties of Emeditor shortcuts, I activate the option “run the program as an administrator”. Deactivate it and now it works very well!
I always use portable version of EmEditor. While updating to new version, I’d like to copy the files of new version into my existed folder and overwrite old version, since I create some macros, customized templates, dictionaries, workspace, toolbars, icons…….In the past, it always works very well. But update to v18.6, all macros can’t run and get the error “Object expected”. I test the original portable version which is downloaded from website, it works. But strange thing is my Emeditor can’t work. I want to find the reason.
