How does work Split lines ? It doesn illogical thing to me - or i perhaps can't understand it.
How should one customize Tidy ? its XML indent could be ok, if it did not changed characters to &-#; entities.
I have a jabber roster and i need migrate settings from one transport to another.
So i basically have to
1. record macro "F3, right-arrow, enter" (F3 searching for closing tag of the tag, i need to split lines upon)
2. after that i would need to grep all lines not containing specific substring - transport domain name.
3. Then several text substitutions
4. at the result i would have an XML to directly feed into XMPP server.
But it all seems to be an overkill!
All i need is to grep XML tags and then replace one substring in them for another!
PErhaps i would better try to learn IE DOM API, XPath, etc...
But i wonder why such simple functions are not meet in GUI ?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Split lines is meant to insert line breaks (e.g., CR/LF pairs) at the word-wrap length, either based on the window width currently used by Notepad++ or by the number stored in the clipboard. See the associated help file that came with your distribution, probably in <Notepad++ installation directory>\plugins\NPPTextFX. In other words, it is not what you are looking for.
There's a pretty-print option to Tidy that you can configure by creating a custom htmltidy.cfg file, I think. You might be able to keep it from converting characters to &-#; via a setting. See the TextFX > TextFX HTML Tidy menu for places to go and docs to see.
The last option would be to use regex (regular expressions). Scintilla's implementation is limited, though. There's a joke that goes something like this:
You have a problem. You say, "I know! I'll use regular expressions!" Now you have _two_ problems.
