A normal “Find and Replace” can't do that, but it's possible with “Regular Expressions”. In Notepad++ press Ctr+H to open the “Find and Replace” window. Under Search Mode: choose “Regular expression” and then check the “matches newline” checkbox. You should see closing </p> tags at the end of each line.
Using Regex to find and replace text in Notepad++ In all examples, use select Find and Replace (Ctrl + H) to replace all the matches with the desired string or (no string). And also ensure the 'Regular expression' radio button is set.
How to use RegEx with . replace in JavaScript. To use RegEx, the first argument of replace will be replaced with regex syntax, for example /regex/ . This syntax serves as a pattern where any parts of the string that match it will be replaced with the new substring.
Vim has several regex modes, one of which is very magic that's very similar to traditional regex. Just put \v in the front and you won't have to escape as much.
In Notepad++ you don't need to use Regular Expressions for this.
Hold down alt to allow you to select a rectangle of text across multiple rows at once. Select the chunk you want to be rid of, and press delete.
In Notepad++ :
<option value value='1' >A
<option value value='2' >B
<option value value='3' >C
<option value value='4' >D
Find what: (.*)(>)(.)
Replace with: \3
Replace All
A
B
C
D
Everything before the A, B, C, etc.
That seems so simple I must be misinterpreting you. It's just
:%s/<.*>//
There is a very simple solution to this unless I have not understood the problem. The following regular expression:
(.*)(>)(.*)
will match the pattern specified in your post.
So, in notepad++ you find (.*)(>)(.*) and replace it with \3.
The regular expressions are basically greedy in the sense that if you specify (.*) it will match the whole line and what you want to do is break it down somehow so that you can extract the string you want to keep. Here, I have done exactly the same and it works fine in Notepad++ and Editplus3.
