Autocomplete works fine for me in languages which have an XML autocomplete file in the APIs folder, but completely non-functional for languages that use a .API file (ruby, AutoIt, others). From what I've been able to find online...
Hi I'm using Notepad++ as an editor to write programs in Python. It might sound daft but I looked around in the editor and could not find any means (not the manual way but something like in Emacs) to do a block comment in my code. Since so many language settings are supported in Notepad++, I'm curious to find a way to block comment cod...

I'd like to remove any Carriage Returns from within the quoted field. I was trying to use this pattern but can't get it quite right... (.*)\"(.*)\n(.*)\"(.*) Als...

Hello. I want to make notepad++ run the "ruby {filename_here}" command if the current filename ends with .rb and "perl {filename_here}" if it ends with .pl. I've tried to use the NppExec plugin, but it can't do conditional stuff, so I wrote a bat @echo off if /i %~sx1 == .pl perl "%~f1" if /i %~sx1 == .rb ruby "%~f1" if /i %~sx1 == .p...

How do I make it so that HTMLTidy in Notepad++ only indents when I select "TextFX-->TextFX HTML Tidy-->TiDy Clean Document-nowrap"? All I want it to do is indent tags. But it also changes the Doctype, adds an xmlns attribute to the html tag, changes tags, and probably does some other stuff to the html document. All I need it to do is in...

I made a PHP script that generates CSV files that were previously generated by another process. And then, the CSV files have to be imported by yet another process.

What I am doing is replacing, in a large program, all $_REQUEST['var'] and mysql_escape_string($_REQUEST['var']) with either the 1st or 2nd line below the dotted line. Now, I have figured out this much of the regular expression but I would like to make it simpler. Instead of having to run the top one first then the 2nd one I would like...
