Notepad++ is my go to editor for most things. I would like to develop a new command(keyboard shortcut) for doing something unique. Anybody has any pointers regarding how I can do this?
I would like to create a command which arranges selected text in certain order based on the characters found. I would also like create a keyboard shortcut for running the same command.
You have several options:
develop a macro - examine Macros dropdown menu in Notepad++
use AutoHotKey which can send keystrokes/mouseclicks, run apps/DLL's, work with clipboard, read any system settings, take values from input boxes and many more. Please see here for its sample usage with Notepad++
use JN plugin for Notepad++ and script your functionality in JavaScript - example. Similarly, there is a Python scripting plugin, too.
write your own N++ plugin. You get the best control, but without experience this is the most difficult option.

In RStudio it is Ctrl+Enter, while in PyCharm it is Ctrl+backslash, but I can't find a similar shortcut for Octave (not so interested in Matlab). There has to be a way to run a single line of code on the editor without running the entire document. I know there is a method to run chunks of code, but this doesn't seem practical, either.
You need to select the code that you want to run first. The actual shortcut to then execute the selection is configurable (Edit > Preferences...) but defaults to F9.
Or you can right click on the editor which shows you the options and shortcut:
I've installed a Javascript formatter into ST2. For some reason, the keyboard shortcut is not working suddenly. When I search in my keymaps for alt+ctrl+f I don't see anything. How can I figure out why this shortcut is no longer doing anything? You can see the poorly formatted js in the screenshot. If I call the command via Sh+Ctrl+P it works fine. Does the Ctrl+Alt+F on the right side in the screenshot indicate that that command is bound to that shortcut, or just that the package thinks that it is bound to that?
I would suggest you try to use FindKeyConflicts. This plugin will:
Assist in finding key conflicts between various plugins. This plugin
will report back shortcut keys that are mapped to more than one
package. This does not guarantee that the listed plugins are
necessarily in conflict, as details, such as context, are ignored.
This is simply a tool to help assist what plugins may be conflicting.
When using eclipse upon pressing control space, it show a list of all possible matching function calls irrespective of the file locations.
Is there a similar plugin for VIM ?
I am using vim7.4 and shougo's neocomplete (https://github.com/Shougo/neocomplete.vim). I actually switched from shougo's neocomplcache to this plugin. I am so far satisfied with the auto-complete feature provided by the nice plugin.
I don't write php code though, I made two screenshots of one of my python project.
screenshot 1,
left side is a module tmux_cmd.py, right side I have imported the module, when I type the module name, the plugin suggested me all functions/variables in that module.
screenshot 2,
in same module, when I type keywords (load) in this case, the plugin shows me all possible functions. I opened tagbar on right side to show functions in the current module. I can press <TAB> to choose the one I want, or keep typing something else if I just want to have something else, like loadnothing.... In the screenshot I pressed <tab>
You only need to index your project with ctags (see :help tags and :help ctags) and vim's built-in omni completion will do what you want for PHP when you press <c-x><c-o>.
Vim doesn't do auto-completion, though, you'll need a plugin for that like the one cited by kent but there are others.
I need to add some code to the of several html contained in a folder on my desktop. How can i do that?
I am using a prototyping tool (Axure) on Mac and I want to add some html meta tags to the generated pages. These pages can be overwritten every time I generate the prototype. What I need is a sort of script that I can launch after re-generating the prototype, to reinsert the code. There is something for windows but it doesn't work on Mac: http://joshuamorse.com/2009/01/14/axure-protonotes-an-alternative-to-protoshare/
thanks
This is a very simple problem to solve using a shell script.
If you are not familiar with scripting, then check out the Automator program built-in to OS X.
This provides a "visual" way of building automation workflows.
This is the basic steps that your workflow will need to perform.
Find the files that need updating.
For each file
Open the file using TextEdit
Tell TextEdit to Find the Head element and replace with the new Head Element that includes the script
Save the file.
Repeat
How about a simple find/replace in multiple files using something like this:
http://search-and-replace.en.softonic.com/mac
If you are able to create some sort of 'dummy' tag in Axure, you could use that as the 'find' that you could replace with your meta tags.
That seems to be a simple way to do what you want.
I'm doing a project in Java which creates a user manual (html files that are linked together like Windows "Help and support centre") of software. Now once a user manual is created I have only html files remaining. Now I want to search html file that contains specified keyword(Search Engine).How can I do this without Java code??
grep, find, python script, or open any file with a text editor and try edit->search
(on windows use windows search in file)
If all of your other code is written in java, then it'll be sensible (without knowing your usecase) to use java for searching as well. You might of course use some commandline programs as grep or find - or built in search functionality in a webbrowser, but if the search should be part of a java application anyway, why not go for java and e.g. Lucene?
If this 'help' is going to be online than you can embed google search in it (limiting the search results to specified site:). Alternatively if you're hosting the pages yourself you can use htdig for indexing the pages.
However if it's going to offilne you'll be better of by generating a static index page with links to topics. In order to create a more help-system-alike user experience you can hide the contents of the index in the invisible html DIV tags and add a JavaScript that takes searched phrase as an input and that unhides the matched words with their links.
Maybe I'm missing something, but have you looked at javahelp? It has indexing and searching built in, and can be used online or offline.
