Search & Replace - Newlines Added After Replace - dj99 - Jul-22-2018
Hi,
the below script works, but it adds a new line after it replaces
I cant understand why
it should just do a straight replace
with open('c:/Users/Dan/Desktop/Replace.txt') as f:
for l in f:
#s = l.split()
s = l.split('|')
editor.replace(s[0], s[1])Replace fileapple|pear
hello|Hi

what is
editor?don't forget that each line in the file ends with '\n' (i.e. new line). If you print the line print will also add new line. you can use optional end parameter OR strip the whitespace:
>>> line='somethin, something else\n' >>> print(line) somethin, something else >>> print(line, end='') somethin, something else >>> print(line.strip()) somethin, something else >>>

Hello Buran,
This is to do search and replacement in Notepad++ editor
I am doing lots of search and replace
originally
s = l.split()
does not cause this issue
i tried the below
editor.replace(s[0], s[1]) editor.line.strip()

if it is Python Script for Notepad++ plug-in related and there was no problem before, you may want to raise an issue on their Github https://github.com/bruderstein/PythonScript/issues
