Thanks ChalkTrauma.

Didn't seen this not until now  :-[

My favorite tools are
lnkchk.exe to store all new startmenu links from an installation for documenting
and DebugString.exe... i don't know right now... but i can imaging some use for this  :Thmbsup:

General Software Discussion / Re: Is there such a tool to remove folder with 1 item
« Last post by AbteriX on February 24, 2010, 06:44 AM »
Hi I'm looking for a quick way to remove folders with only 1 item (the subfolder), but preserving the hierarching

e.g
folder1
  emptyfolder
    emptyfolder
      folderwithcontent1
         folderwithcontent2

Becomes:

folder1
  files from folderwithcontent1
     files from folderwithcontent2


To make this clear, do you mean:

Becomes:
folder1
  folderwithcontent1
      folderwithcontent2





e.g.
folder1
  emptyfolder
    emptyfolder
      folderwithcontent1
         folderwithcontent2

e.g. Step 1
folder1
  emptyfolder
    emptyfolder
    folderwithcontent1
       folderwithcontent2

e.g. Step 2
folder1
  emptyfolder
    emptyfolder
  folderwithcontent1
     folderwithcontent2

e.g. Step 3
delete all empty folders


That can be done with an script i think:
- get an array-list of all sub-folders

For Each folder in Array
  - go to each deepest sub-folder
    While parent != folder1
        - IF (my-parent-folder IS without files) THEN move this-folder-and-all-subfolder one hierarchy up 
        - go to parent
    Loop
Next

- then delete all empty sub-folders

Hi Max,

i have tried MultiFind in the past along with other competitors and found it good and fast.
But now i see my trial period is expired and i can't test it again.

I like the displaying of the matches as per matched line view and as whole file view too.
That's clever to have an good overview over all matches and also see the match in the full file to see the surrounding lines.

I like the multi-tab interface and that i can reuse my last find&replace pattern.
But i would like to save an tab with all settings to load it later for reuse.
Also it would be nice to have "drop-down history list" for each box in the General section to f.ex. select an older RegEx pattern.

I would like to have this as portable software with an ini near the app exe, leaving my registry alone.
I don't know if i have tested this... but i would need to call MultiFind with an path as argument from my file manager.
like: "Launch ..\..\Tools\MultiFind\MultiFind.exe /PATH:{currPath} /EXT:{currFileExtension}"


For the price asked i would expect an lifetime license.

The filter needs improvements:
- regex to match files with two digits \d\d
- gt/lt for size and date (currently this is not very useful)
EDIT: O.K., i can insert '1*.*' in the size field to filter for files smaller then 20 Kb,
and '??.*' into the name field to get all files greater then 9.ext, that's e.g. 10.ext, 11.ext, 12.ext,...
EDIT 2: or i could just use the options from the Advanced area  :P ... but now i am not sure if i would need this filter then at all?



Question:  How can i search [&replace] for multiple lines?
E.g.:
search for:
span.rvts3 /* Keywords */
{
 font-family: 'Arial';
 font-style: italic;
 color: #800000;
}

Replace with:
<nothing>

Here should be an help for regex searches, like an checkbox "[X] dot search newlines",
and an higher, multiline edit box for non-regex searches.


HTH?

Developer's Corner / Re: Regex help, please?
« Last post by AbteriX on February 02, 2010, 03:25 PM »
You want to search for
"The assigned group was changed to Group_Name" ?
or for
"The assigned group changed to Group_Name" ?

I would use
$found = $subject -cmatch 'The assigned group was changed to .+\b'
to match this line.
Here i search for text as is, and then for one-or-more of any-sign, till an word boundary

Did you need do get the Group_Name for further use?
The assigned group was changed to (.+\b)

You can also use:
The assigned group was changed to ([a-zA-Z_ ]+)
or
The assigned group was changed to ([\w_ ]+)

There are many possibles. To provide an valid RegEx it would be nice to see an real output from that audit log (anonymous-ed)

General Software Discussion / Re: "Renaming" a list of names (not files)
« Last post by AbteriX on January 09, 2010, 09:05 AM »
The format of the names is below - where    X or Z are letters or numbers or underscores or '-'    and spaces are spaces.

XXXXXXX XXXXXXXX ZZZZZZZZZ
or
XXXXXXX ZZZZZZZZ

I want to be able to take the last part of the name (ZZZZZZ) and put it in front so I would end up with

ZZZZZZZZZ XXXXXXX XXXXXXXX
or
ZZZZZZZZ XXXXXXX

Hy Tom,

any editor with search&replace with reg ex mode can do this.


FROM:
XXXXXXX XXXXXXXX ZZZZZZZZZ
XXXXXXX ZZZZZZZZ
RegEx: find all greedy till last space, then find the rest
RegEx: ^(.+) (.+)$
Explanation:
^ => match start of string
() => group what is found for later back referencing
.  => find one any sign
+ => find (at least)one or (as many as)more from the term just typed before, one of any sign, in our case. But only till the next term is found.
$ => end of string

TO:
ZZZZZZZZZ XXXXXXX XXXXXXXX
ZZZZZZZZ XXXXXXX
Replace: all from group two, then an space, then all from group one
Replace: \2 \1     or $2 $1, belongs what reg ex engine/style is used


So:
open Search&Replace in your favorite text editor or Office
Find: ^(.+) (.+)$
Repl: $2 $1
[X] RegEx


Depending of how your string looks in real, it could be that this RegEx has to be fine tuned. PM me if you like.

HTH?

I just want to mention that ReNamer can do this too  :Thmbsup:

Here is an quick ReNamer script which will increase all numbers in an file name after an string:

     //Because some renamed names already exists, we will add an special sign '#' into the new name to get an unique name.
     //First rename the files with this PascalScript rule,
1. step)
File 7001.txt   File 7002#.txt
File 7002.txt   File 7003#.txt
File 7003.txt   File 7004#.txt
File 7004.txt   File 7005#.txt
File 7010.txt   File 7011#.txt
File 7100.txt   File 7101#.txt


    // then do an second run and
    //use an replace rule to remove that #-sign: Replace: Replace all "#" with "" (skip extension)
2. step)
File 7002#.txt   File 7002.txt
File 7003#.txt   File 7003.txt
File 7004#.txt   File 7004.txt
File 7005#.txt   File 7005.txt
File 7011#.txt   File 7011.txt
File 7101#.txt   File 7101.txt

Code: Text [Select]
  1. //PascalScript for den4b's ReNamer (http://www.den4b.com/projects.php), 2010 by Stefan
  2. //Purpose: Find number in file name and increase/decrease them.
  3. //This simple script works only for an file name pattern like:
  4. //Name 7001.txt  => Name 7002.txt
  5. //Name 7025.txt  => Name 7026.txt
  6. //For more tasks the script has to be modified, if you have the need please visit the ReNamer forum at http://www.den4b.com/forum/

  15.      //Because some renamed names already exists, we will add an special sign '#' into the new name to get an unique name.
  16.      //First rename the files with this PascalScript rule, then do an second run and

  18.     FileName := SubPatterns[0] + IntToStr(StrToInt(SubPatterns[1]) + 1) + '#' + WideExtractFileExt(FileName); //increment

Thank you for sharing Ashraf  :Thmbsup:

Some thoughts:

* >  click on "Help" -> "License Information". Hit the "Install new license..." button.
  It is enough to copy the "License.xbin" file into the program folder => "C:\Program FIles\jv16 PowerTools 2009"

* > so don't try to update to the latest version
   You should un-check "Auto update" in the wizard-dialog on first program start
    Or later in settings menu > Network features

* This is app can also be used in portable mode, just copy the program folder.

* The promotion page is in german, and there is also an Instruction side in german:

M> do you mean a way to use LBC to search items on the lbc dock?

For example here on superboyac screenshot
i want to type 'laun' and wanna see a list of all items containing 'laun' in the name.
Instead of opening all sub-menus to find all items containing 'laun' .


M> what i was thinking instead was to let FARR know about LBC items..
I on my own didn't want to use two tools to find one app to start  :D
But i can understood your idea, it is just not handy for my (portable) kind of use.
