Tips for using ultraedit

Ultraedit is a daily tool. however, the functions actually used are only a very small part of the powerful functions of this tool. flexible use of this tool can sometimes achieve twice the result with half the effort. record and collect tips to help others. this is because I was surprised when I used the "column editing" method. I never knew this method before. this is also one of the purposes of writing this memo document.

1. How do I remove the lines in the edited text that contain a specific string?
This technique is mentioned in the Help File of ultraedit. CTRL + R call out the Replace window, select "use regular expression", and then replace % * your string * ^ P with null content. for example, I currently have a text file, you need to remove all rows containing the http://www.dbanotes.net/This string, find % * http://www.aebiz.net/?#p Replace with null. note that ^ P is a line break of the DOS file type. for UNIX files, use ^ n.

2. How to add specific characters such as commas (,) at the end of a row?
With the above experience (in fact, I learned from my colleagues for the first time), press Ctrl + R to call out the Replace window and select "use regular expression ". then you can find ^ P (or ^ N, if it is a UNIX file) and use, ^ P (or, ^ N) to "replace all. in addition, if it is a MAC (Apple) file, the line break is ^ r.

3. How to delete empty rows?
Refer to the above two examples, find ^ p $ and replace it with null.

It seems that the regular expression needs to be learned.

4. How to add a timestamp to the edit file?
You can try the F7 shortcut?

5. Why is the copy/paste function unavailable?
When using ultraedit several times, it is found that the copied and pasted content does not match. I don't know why. I suddenly realized that ultraedit has 10 clipboard boards (Clipboard) and switches them with Ctrl + 0-Ctrl + 9. CTRL + 0 is windows, and others are user-defined. CTRL + N is incorrectly called during usage, and the result content becomes faulty. have you ever met?

6. Is there latency even when opening small files?
This is a problem I encountered. Every time I open a file, there will always be a few seconds of delay. My machine performance is not bad. What's wrong? Network Printer is a ghost! Open "advanced"-> "Settings"-> "Editor"-> "advanced" to see if "load/restore printer settings" is selected "? If yes, remove it (the location may vary depending on the version or Chinese version ).

7. Delete the content of the current row Ctrl + E
