I open a log file in Notepad, and I get just text, which is great.
I open the same file in Notepad++ and I get a NUL between every character
NUL0NUL8NUL6NUL2
and so on.
I know I can convert these NULs to spaces with the TextFX extension, but I would
really rather just read in the file right off the bat in Notepad++.
Bear in mind, if there is no way to do this, I might, Lord forfend, have to
install VIM -- and that just seems like cruel and unusual punishment.

To take a wonderful product, a true labor of love, as an excuse for ranting
on medieval fanatical chants, is a moron's choice. I propose we move on, and
start a thread with recommendations of wonderful and wymsical error messages
we would love to see come out of N++. Starting the flow:
* Your file got creamed because it lacks all sense of humour
* On recursion, like on evolution, "the jury is still out". Thus, this exception
(almost literally picked up from that other great moron...)
* Your file has been kidnapped. Have sex on the grass, under a full moon's
light,
and you will find it again in your disk.
Thanks for your awesome product, and may the spaghetti monster protect us from
so many idiots walking this flat earth...

It seems to me that the argument going on here is about the original intention
of the thread. As English is not the native language of a large number of users
of this forum, I wonder if hair splitting about precise meanings is a good idea.
It usually isn't anyway.
It would also help if some of you people registered and logged in before posting
- it's hard to work out who said what when everyone is called "nobody".
He had a problem, caused by ^ not being treated as once per line. He found
a workaround, but is suggesting that this behaviour be changed. That's what
should be being discussed.
His question:
"Wouldn't it make more sense to automatically treat the ^ start-of-line as "1
per line" feature, allowing users to do this repeatedly (on the changed line)
by checking the Incremental checkbox?
Additionally, checking Incremental when using $ might be implemented as "Check
again the end of the line (until no longer matched)". I would very much welcome
^ and $ to be treated "equally" in this way, that is, with the same options
checked both ^ and $ work either _only once per line_ or _repeatedly_.
Are there any advocates for this?"

Not according to http://notepad-plus.wiki.sourceforge.net/Command+Line+Switches
. The best you could do would be to cause it to open up in a new instance,
but that's what you hated about notepad.

Reading this thread in it's entirety i find it very sad that people who want
to make their feelings felt can't even be bothered to adopt a username.
All I can say is keep up the great work Don. It's much appreciated.

I think that parameter might be only in the very latest version. It isn't
mentioned
at http://notepad-plus.wiki.sourceforge.net/Command+Line+Switches .

Yes, it will be a new script language, although like I mentioned, it will be
very primitive. It won't have any of the features that would make it a real
scripting language, like Python or Perl for instance. All it will do is allow
you to write a series of functions with parameters that will process the entire
document or just what you have highlighted. It will execute the functions one
at a time on the text and export the finished product back out to the document.
I'll start a new thread on the Plugin Development forum as soon as I get my
plans a little more concrete so that I can get some input on what functions
people would like.

Yes I would advocate what you just said (and it's too late for me to log in
with name) but none of this matters if the regular expression engine is third
party. (Forgive me for not knowing as I'm brand new.) If it's under Don's
direction
it would be nice to hear from him.

Simple scripting plugin in development

I've just started working with Notepad++ Plugins, and my first will a simple
scripting system to process text. Why simple? Because I don't have much
experience
with writing parsers, so this is the best I can come up with. I'm calling it
SimpleScript in order to distinguish it from the currently nonexistent advanced
scripting system that I'm still hoping that someone will design later.
I originally designed it to help me convert plain text e-books to HTML without
having to repeat the same sequence of steps over and over again (I think I've
replaced "\r\n" with "</p>\r\n<p>" on a couple of hundred documents). I wrote
a couple of standalone programs that would help me do this automatically, but
ever since I started using Notepad++ I've wished I could have some kind of
generic
scripting tool built in that I could use for this and other purposes, to make
Notepad++ my all-in-one toolbox. The old adage "if you want something done,
you gotta do it yourself," applies, so that's why I'm designing this. You'll
notice that some of the functions lend themselves well to formatting e-books.
This system should be generic enough that it can be used not just for converting
e-books, but for a variety of other purposes. It will also be very simple to
use. Like I said earlier, I lack the skill to write an advanced parser, but
I think this will be useful anyway.
The basic idea is this:
You select "Simple Script" from the menu, and it opens a window where you can
type in a script. A script is just a sequence of functions with parameters,
one function per line. No branching, no looping, no nested functions, no
variables.
When you execute the script, it will grab the currently selected text in the
document (or the entire document if no text is selected), run the functions
one at a time on it, then export the end result back out to replace either the
selected text or the entire document. Some of the functions operate on specific
lines, some of them operate on every line in the text, and some of them operate
on the relationships between the lines.
I plan to include the ability to save the scripts out to files for later
retrieval,
and to internally maintain a list of your favorite scripts, perhaps in an .ini
file, so that you can just choose them off a list instead of having to search
for the file. And of course, copy and paste to and from the script window.
I'm going to have some time over the weekend to work on it, and I hope to have
the basic framework done in that time. Then it's just a matter of writing the
functions themselves.
So far I have fifteen functions planned:
add(text): Adds a line of text to the end of the document.
beginline(text): Appends text to the beginning of every line.
delete(linestart,lineend): Deletes all lines between linestart and lineend.
endline(text): Appends text to the end of every line.
insert(text,linenumber): Inserts a line of text at the specified line number.
replace(oldtext,newtext): Replaces all instances of oldtext with newtext.
replacecase(oldtext,newtext): Replaces all instances of oldtext with newtext,
but with case-sensitive matching.
replaceline(text,linenumber): Replaces a line of text at the specified line
number.
setblanks(minblank,maxblank,threshhold): Changes the number of blank lines
between
lines.
sort(): Sorts all lines in the document.
trim(badchars): Strips all badchars from the beginning and end of every line.
trimleft(badchars): Strips all badchars from the beginning of every line.
trimright(badchars): Strips all badchars from the end of every line.
unwrap(blanklinecount,spacecount,tabcount): Strips hard returns based upon the
parameters.
wrap(columncount,splitwords): Adds hard returns to force columns to a certain
width.
And before you ask, yes, I plan to include \r, \n, and \t in the replace and
replacecase functions. No regular expressions though, sorry. At least not
unless someone is willing to do the programming for me (I should warn you, I
use Delphi, not C).
I have a more detailed writeup of the above functions that will be included
in the readme file, but I haven't posted it here, so you may be thinking "what
the heck?" on some of them. If you want more clarification, just let me know.
Right now, I'd like to know what other functions people might like. Any ideas?
