Dirk: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you vbr.
cite: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- www\. with: www. and then: (https?://)http:// with $1-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sorry for my bad understanding, I guess that might be right: So in the window "Replace" add www\. to "Find" and www. to "Replace" and check "Regular Expressions", I assume then execute, after add (https?://)http:// to "Find" and www. to "Replace" and check "Regular Expressions" and the last step then using that PSPad regex. That it is. By the way, how can one stop a running replacement or an URL extraction without using the Task Manager? Many thanks again. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi, I'm guessing, the "h t t p : / / " part of the pattern is somehow being swallowed by the forum software. the first step is to replace using regex: www\. to h t t p : / / www. [without spaces] I guess, you can't stop the replacement while running (other than the mentioned "hard way"), you can check the option in the replace dialog to confirm each match. hth, vbr -- <http://forum.pspad.com/read.php?2,62001,62042> PSPad freeware editor http://www.pspad.com
