11/16/2023 0 Comments Ultraedit macro examples![]() This was a bug which was fixed after I detected and reported it. Well, there are some versions of UltraEdit which have a bug resulting in a Perl regular expression Replace All executed from within a macro/script moved the caret in file to last occurrence of replaced string. A Replace All never moves the caret in file. So every Replace All executed from within a macro/script is always from current position of caret in file to end of file. This setting is never enabled during macro/script execution. The replace dialog has also the option Replace all is from top of file. This behavior avoids endless running macros or scripts. In other words the state of setting Continue find at end of file is pushed on stack on starting a macro/script, then the configuration setting is internally in memory of UltraEdit disabled, and after script/macro execution finished (as expected or because of an error does not matter), the state of this setting is popped from stack to restore its configured value. But this means for a search on entire file I have to move the caret to top of file with Ctrl+Home before starting.īut the find/replace behavior on running a macro or script is different as it never wraps around. I have this setting unchecked as I prefer to search always from current position to end/top of file without wrapping around. ![]() ![]() And with this setting enabled a find/replace upwards continues at end of file if the searched string can't be found from current position of caret to top of file (wrap to bottom). In this case a find/replace downwards continues at top of file if the searched string can't be found from current position of caret to end of file (wrap to top). Open Advanced - Settings or Configuration - Search - Miscellaneous and you can see the setting Continue find at end of file. This list view can be floating or docked on any side without or with auto-hide enabled as all other list views. Double clicking on a macro in this list executes the macro on active file once. This list view shows the macros currently loaded. On using ribbon mode click on ribbon tab Layout in group Views on check box item Macro list. The macro file with the ultimate syntax highlighting tools is a public available example containing multiple macros with some macros being submacros of other macros in macro file and being executed conditionally. Each submacro is played in then environment (check box properties) defined for master macro calling them with PlayMacro command. The macro to play 1 times must be stored in same macro file. If the macros should be executed usually automatically in series, it is possible to create a macro which contains the macro command PlayMacro 1 " Macro Name " several times. This can be done by clicking on on down arrow left to Configure in group Macro and clicking on menu item Set macro for auto-load. When you often need those macros, it would be best to configure this macro file to be loaded automatically on startup of UltraEdit. All loaded macros are saved now into one macro file. Once all loaded macros are configured well, click on down arrow left to Configure in group Macro and click on menu item Save all macros. You can modify in this dialog the names of the loaded macros, their two check box properties and the hotkeys/chords for execution by key. You can merge the existing macros stored in individual macro files by clicking in ribbon mode on ribbon tab Advanced in group Macro on down arrow left to item Load and use from popup menu the menu item Load and append to existing.Īfter loading all the macros from the macro files into memory click on down arrow left to Configure in group Macro and click on menu item Configure macros. Normally OCR software can be trained by the user to correctly detect what is an I and what is a l.A macro file can contain multiple macros and not just one macro. UnixReOn/UnixReOff modifies this setting. ![]() Remove the last red command, if you use regular expression in UltraEdit style by default instead of Unix style - see Advanced - Configuration - Find - Unix style Regular Expressions. You have to search for such words and and replace it manually.įind MatchCase RegExp "^(+^)I^(^)" Words starting with an uppercase I by mistake are not corrected. First replace is for words starting with a lowercase character, second one for words starting with an uppercase character, i.e. If you execute Replace All for following regular expressions in UltraEdit style with Match Case several times until nothing is replaced anymore, the uppercase I inside of words will be replaced by lowercase l. ![]()
