Re: Need Grep Pattern

2024-02-15 Thread 'eu...@gmx.de' via BBEdit Talk 
Hi Kim,

Maybe this search pattern will help:

([\d\/]{8})( )([^\,]+)(\, TX )([\d\.]{1,5})

with replace pattern:

\1\t\3\t\5

By the way: Try the pattern first wich the Pattern Playground (the 6th entry in 
BBEdits search menu). There’s also an extensive help on grep included.

Cheers, Ulrich

Re: Any Regex Gurus -

2022-07-12 Thread eu...@gmx.de 
Try this:
Search pattern:  "\b(.*)(")(.*)\b“
Replace pattern:  "\1\3“

This changes  "good for me",yo“ to  "good for me,yo“

And then:
Search pattern:  (\w),(\w)
Replace pattern:  „\1, \2“

To change "good for me,yo“ to "good for me, yo“

Hope I understood your need.

Re: TextEdit acts like default text editor at times

2021-11-29 Thread eu...@gmx.de 
Hi Brian

Did you try to „First Aid“ from the Disk Utility App on your startup volume?
This helped for me some years ago.

You may also try to assign .text and .txt files to another application like 
Atom  (Don’t forget to use „Change All…“!) and then set it 
back to BBEdit again.

Otherwise you may want to delete the TextEdit App, because it’s mostly useless 
anyway…
I could tell you how to do this. But without any warranty!

Cheers!
Ulrich

Re: GREP pattern for financial summary output

2021-05-21 Thread eu...@gmx.de 
Only few people use the grep search+replace functions in BBEdit that often to 
use it blindly.

And the PCRE syntax isn’t very intuitive.
I developed a CMS software in the early 2k years (20 years ago ;-) using PHP 
and implemented extended input text filtering by using the PCRE compatible 
functions in PHP.
I really struggled with it, I can tell you!

Since BBEdit 13,0 I think, there is a nice support option to edit and try regex 
patterns in BBEdit, called "Pattern Playground“, there you get all the help you 
need for all the rarely used features of the grep-search. You can find it in 
the menu „Search“ on the 6th position from top.

Re: GREP pattern for financial summary output

2021-05-20 Thread eu...@gmx.de 
Hi Russell,

I’m not sure what you exactly want to do, but if you just want to put the 
negative lines into a second column in the CSV (comma separated values) file 
and you have just one column in the origin file, you can use the following 
pattern:

Search pattern:   "^(\-{1})([0-9]{1,20}\.{0,1}[0-9]{0,2})“
Replacement pattern: ",\1\2“
(without quotation marks)
(If you want to have tabs instead of commas to separate the columns use "\t“ 
instead of “,“)

All the negative values will be placed now in a second column, but always in a 
separate line.

The output will look like this:

,-2559.82
1168.41
,-12
,-7.21
23


Hope it helps.

Ulrich

Re: Can't open many files using "Open..." dialog

2021-02-16 Thread eu...@gmx.de 
Hi Rich,

I can’t reproduce the issue Ken L reported.
In my environment (MacBook Pro Mid 2010, Patched macOS Mojave, BBEdit 13.5.5) 
everything works fine, even when I assign the .pl files are to another editor 
than BBEdit in the Finder.

Maybe there’s something weird in his special environment?
