As somewhat a follower of ProsNpad &amp; its RegEx Find and Replace functionality, I noticed in recent changelog reports that the RegEx has been updated. I thought it might be of help to report my experience while using Replace with regular expressions attempting to dissect some of what's going on in the <em>YUI</em>(1) JavaScript library component, yahoo-dom-event.js</p> <p>Most of the time, everything works great (e.g. i often turn to ProsNpad for regular expression operations. for curiosity, i've done some amount of testing for differences between PN, other Scintilla-based editors, .NET-based editors, etc.), and I've been successful with it in some instances where i experienced difficulty with other editors (i.e. it's amazing the variance between different "flavors", as implemented in editors [to quote the Regex Buddy author's texts])</p> <p>One of the several expressions I've used, is shown below-- it's one of a few which caused the unexpected result:<br /> Match Expression:<br /> <code>(return[ \S]+;)(})(?=\S)­­</code><br /> Replace Expression:<br /> <code>\n\1\n\2\n\3</code><br /> The unexpected result follows:<br /> <strong><em>Before</em>:</strong><br /> <pre><code>if(this.__yui_events){ if(this.__yui_events[A]){ return true;}} return false;}};(function(){</code></pre> <p><strong><em>After</em>:</strong><br /> <pre><code>if(this.__yui_events){ if(this.__yui_events[A]){ return true; } \\} return false;}};(function(){</code></pre> <p>Programmer's Notepad had previously executed a Replacement Expression successfully on 650+ items in that same file, just as i wanted without error.

The Mark All button highlights all occurrences of the search term to be hightlighted, but this highlighting is barely visible on a dark background theme. Is there a way to change the highlighting color?</p> <p>2. Is there a way to unmark all marked items? (As a workaround, I can search for and mark a different sequence.)</p> <p>3. When replacing all, is there a way to make it stop at the end of the document, not continue from the top?</p> <p>Then I have a feature request related to this:</p> <p>If one just did a Replace, I would like F3 to repeat the replace, instead of just repeating the find. Or have a command and keypress that repeats the replace operation. For example, in the Borland Delphi 7 IDE one can start a replace operation and replace one or more occurrences, then close the dialog, move the cursor around, type, etc, then press Ctrl+L to do another replace operation without going back to the dialog. If the last thing was a find operation, then Ctrl+L repeats that instead.</p> <p>I will also try to add this request in Google Code. </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/497#post-1747 Tue, 09 Dec 2008 14:41:02 +0000 Nux 1747@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>You have to tick "Regular Expression" search and use "\n" for replace.</p> <p>eg.<br /> Search: "div&gt;&lt;div"<br /> Reaplce: "div&gt;\n&lt;div" </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/497#post-1746 Tue, 09 Dec 2008 14:17:02 +0000 Operaatoors 1746@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>I have one small question:</p> <p>When i click find, then replace, i enter some symbols, which i want to replace.

This also means that using regular expressions to work with end-of-line characters (e.g. to remove blank lines) does not currently work. For these types of search, backslash expressions are currently the best solution. I am hoping to replace the built-in regex with a better solution over the next couple of releases.
