How do you get Python Script working on Notepad++

[grimreeper132]

I have so far (in theory) downloaded python script and installed it and it should be working (Again in theory) the problem is now the macro I am trying to run isn't working and I am not sure if this is because the code is not working or if something else isn't. The console seams to be working and the macro is shown below. All it is to do is turn

1

2

3

4

into

1, 2, 3, 4

and well it's not and I have about 500 sets to do that to so I would like to work at somepoint. Have I just made a stupid mistake or is there some other issue

def Split(Lines):
    Output = ""
    First = True
    C = 0
    Max = len(Lines) - 1
    while (C < Max):
        if (First):
            First = False
            Output = Lines[C]
        else:
            Output = Output + ", " + Lines[C]
        C += 1
    if (not (IsEmpty(Lines[Max]))):
        Output = Output + "," + Lines[Max]
    return Output

def IsEmpty(Line):
    for Char in Line:
        if (Char != " "):
            return False
    return True

Lines = editor.getText().Split("\r\n")
print(Lines)
SplitLines = Split(Lines)
print(SplitLines)
editor.setText(SplitLines)

Your problem is with the python code. Nothing to do with Notepad++

editor is not defined when calling editor.getText()

 

Oops. Just noticed the miss-spell. Sorry about that. Corrected.

Also you know theax number of lines so you should do a for loop

[MladenM]

Lines = editor.getText().Split("\r\n")

Where is editor object? And its method getText? I dont see editor called anywhere in the code before it shows up first time?

it is the open document, used to get the text from the open TXT file.

 

 

 

The problem is the plugin manager was not installing it correctly. This is the install instructions I found
https://notepad-plus-plus.org/community/topic/17256/guide-how-to-install-the-pythonscript-plugin-on-notepad-7-6-3-7-6-4-and-above
 

Here's the documentation about the plugin which explains how to code for this plugin
