I a using the the HTML encode special characters in Sublime text to convert all the special character into their HTML code. I have a lot of accented characters in different parts of the file. So, it would be great if I could select all the special character and then use the plugin to convert all at once!
Is there a regex that helps select all special characters only?
Is there a way to tell Sublime Text to display all Characters? In Notepad++, clicking View > Show Symbol > Show All Characters produces the following: Spaces are materialized with dots. TABs are materialized with right arrows.
Alt+F3 gives a really simple way to do find and replace: Use it to select all occurrences of the current word or selection, then just start typing to replace or edit them all at once.
On Windows/Linux press Alt + F3 .
Alternatively you can select lines and go to SELECTION MENU >> SPLIT INTO LINES. Now you can edit multiple lines, move cursors etc. for all selected lines.
Yes.
Sublime text supports regular expression and you can select all non-ASCII (code point > 128) characters. This regex find should be enough for you:
[^\x00-\x7F]
Just search and replace.
But if you are doing manual HTML encode in the first place you are doing it wrong. Save your files as UTF-8 encoding (Sublime Text 2 default) and make sure your web server also sends out those files as UTF-8. No conversion, encoding or anything needed.
