Usage tips of ultraedit

1. deduplication

If the data in the text is a row or a row with duplicate content, the deduplication method is file-sort-advanced sort/option, and "delete duplicate" is selected ".

2. garbled characters after searching

Save the file as text in UTF-16 format. The code page must be set:

Advanced -- set the code page/local, "installed code page in the system", and select "936 (ANSI/oem-Simplified Chinese GBK )";

Select "Chinese (China) People's Republic of China" for "region where the system is already installed ".

3. Regular Expression (ultraedit syntax ):

%Match the first line-indicates that the string to be searched must be the first line.
$Match the end of the row-indicates that the string to be searched must be at the end of the row.

4. Use regular expressions to remove spaces at the end of blank rows and rows

Ultraedit has two traditional Regular Expressions: ultraedit and UNIX. Set it to: Advanced -- configuration -- search -- Regular Expression Engine.

Ultraedit regular expression:

Remove blank rows: % [^ t] ++ ^ P is replaced with blank (that is, nothing is input)

Remove trailing space: [^ t] + $ to blank

UNIX Regular Expressions:

Remove blank rows: ^ [] * With Blank

Remove trailing space: [] + $ to blank

5. In the ultraedit regular expression, an asterisk (*) is used to match any number of characters except line breaks. However, there is no corresponding symbol in the Unix regular expression, which can be replaced.

• Match any single character except line breaks. Duplicate line breaks are not matched.

The delimiter matches the previous character 0 or multiple times.
