Open the Find dialog and enter the following patterns and do a replace all. This finds one or more non-whitespace characters \S+ at the end of a line $ and replaces them with a tab \t and the found text \1.
Find: (\S+)$ Replace: \t\1 Also the following variant replaces the white space \s+ in front of the word with the tab so you don't end up with any extra spaces and it works better if there already is a tab before the final word. Find: \s+(\S+)$ Replace: \t\1 Hope this helps, [fletcher] > On Feb 3, 2020, at 7:59 AM, Francisco Hirsch <[email protected]> wrote: > > I have a file with several lines of text. > How can I select the last word of the line and inserting a tab in front of it? > Thanks in advance, > Francisco > -- > Lic.
