One of the older macro solutions is posted at How to Perform a Find & Replace via Macro using a source file. Multiple Replace in Files from list containing also replace properties information. Look for example on the scripts posted at: I wrote already several macros (many years ago) and scripts (in the last years) for that task which can be found in macros and scripts forums. It is also possible that a macro works with find/replace strings in a text file, but UltraEdit macros do not support variables which makes the process less efficient on execution in comparison to an UltraEdit script which can load all finds/replaces into memory at once and then run in a loop the replaces on the file. It is easier to edit a CSV file with find/replace strings than a macro in macro editor. I would suggest nowadays an UltraEdit script for such a task instead of an UltraEdit macro if the find/replace strings need to be changed or extended or removed from time to time. In general it is most efficient that the file to modify with a series of finds and replaces is not opened at all in UltraEdit, but command Replace in Files is used to modify this single file as in this case no undo steps are recorded, no line change indications, etc. A macro could be created by simply recording the replaces done once manually. This ZIP file contains the two UltraEdit scripts to write the bookmarks into several text files.An UltraEdit macro or UltraEdit script is used for such a task in general. split_bookmarks_scripts.zip (3.11 KiB) 40 A double click on a file name in output window opens the appropriate file. The output window is automatically opened on at least one file created by the script. The two scripts are nearly identical, just a few lines are different.īoth scripts write the file names with full path of active file (or no path if active file is a new, unnamed file) of saved files into the output window and append a summary line. The attached ZIP file contains the two commented UltraEdit scripts to split active file with bookmarks into multiple files containing either the entire bookmark lines or just the URLs alphabetically sorted case-sensitive with removing duplicate lines. And it is possible with a script to add better error handling and better user information. I decided to write a script as doing as much as possible in memory avoids UltraEdit window refreshes resulting in finishing the task within a shorter time in comparison to a macro solution. So I had to decide to work around this bug as done many years ago with UltraEdit versions not supporting Perl regular expressions making it possible at all to select multiple lines starting with same string, or writing an UltraEdit script for this task which does as much as possible in memory. I have just reported this bug by email to IDM support. 50 and also former versions like v22.20.0.49 select wrong the lines starting with Bookmark9501_ or Bookmark9502_ depending on version of UltraEdit. Well, that could be easily solved by deleting first all empty lines before starting the loop.īut the main problem is that UltraEdit v25.10.0. The first problem is caused by the empty line at 213 which breaks up the lines starting with Bookmark9502_ into two blocks according to the Perl regular expression used in the macros to select lines starting with same bookmark number string. "Bookmark" and "the unique number_" to tell it where to break up the files. It ’ s funny how things never happen the way I expect them to. => and *** each text file has all the urls in it that copied from the same number lines *** (and the first lines title would be the file name of each txt file)īookmark0_ īookmark01_ to clipboard via īookmark310005_to clipboard_via_macro.txtīookmark12_.(saved bookmark & added) how to remove dup!.txtīookmark05_Find, replace, find in files, replace in files, regular expressions.txtīookmark00007_000003 next page via is my poor so called "copied and pasted poor macro"Ĭredit to all the users who had some questions in this forum :) So in this case 8 txt files should be there created Code: Select all Bookmark0_ index.html īookmark01_ to clipboard via macro.page1 īookmark01_ to clipboard via macro.page5 īookmark01_ to clipboard via macro.page2 īookmark01_ to clipboard via macro.page80000 īookmark01_ to clipboard via macro.page00 īookmark01_ to clipboard via macro.page010 īookmark12_.(saved bookmark & added) how to remove dup! īookmark05_Find, replace, find in files, replace in files, regular expressions īookmark00007_000003 next page via cliboard
