How to make replaced text automatically selected

Hello chjfth,

There is no easy way to do this, but I wrote this code for you:

if( document.selection.Find( "<(.+)>", eeFindReplaceRegExp | eeFindNext) ){

	    x1 = document.selection.GetTopPointX( eePosLogical );

	    y1 = document.selection.GetTopPointY( eePosLogical );

	    x2 = document.selection.GetBottomPointX( eePosLogical );

	    y2 = document.selection.GetBottomPointY( eePosLogical );

	

	    sLine1 = document.GetLine( y2 );

	    document.selection.Replace( "<(.+)>", "@1", eeFindReplaceRegExp);

	    sLine2 = document.GetLine( y2 );

	    x2 += sLine2.length - sLine1.length;

	    

	    document.selection.SetActivePoint( eePosLogical, x1, y1 );

	    document.selection.SetActivePoint( eePosLogical, x2, y2, true );

	} 

I am sorry, but this code doesn’t support eeReplaceSelOnly flag. I still hope this helps.

Hi gays, this is my very first post at forum, and please don’t be angry, because I don’t know how to make new post (thread) and where.
Moderator will probably move this at right place.

I have this question about recording makro(s):

When in Sokoban for Windows 2.3 build 6 I save some game as *.xsb file, I have this situation

http://photoserver.ws/images/Bqnt4cee47932c50b.png

and I need this one

http://photoserver.ws/images/Yaqz4cee479351727.png

So, I need to remove all unnecessary caracters from file at first picture, to make file at second, to be able to load that file in Sokoban Puzzle solver v3.7.2

http://codecola.net/

I wish to record Macro which will remove unnecessary tekst from *.xsb files.
This is 5 operations:
1) Remove text above the first pair …
2) Remove text bellow the last pair …
For this I use Cut from menu
3) Remove all remaining caracters
3) Remove all remaining caracters
For this I use Search -> Replace ->Replase All, and than replace and with empty caracter
5) Save that file like *.xsb

Is it possable to make one macro for this, or I must use combination of several macros?

I supose, you write previous macro for me, thank you very much for your time and response.

Shall I copy this in Notepad with *jsee extension, or copy in EmEditor? I don’t know how to save and use this macro.

I apologize, I never befor haven’t used macros.

Update: I tryed to make macro in EmEditor with entering row by row from your file, with using enter for each row, and macro recorder activ with *jsee extension by save.
Result is something strange, which open several windows aplications at attempt to use it on file like on my first puzzle picture.
Probably I maked bad job.

Something is wrong again

probably I make again some mistake. I saved macro like “xsb Generator.jsee”, maybe is that wrong? I use text configuration.
I must thank you again for your time and patiens, EmEdiror’s help is brilliant, unfortynetly for me, with tehnical stuff I don’t understand well.

Where to find aproved EmEditor macros, which I can download and use?
And at video section I can’t find what I need, i.e. how to use macro with files from another aplications.

Many thanks Mr. Yutaka, now it works, finaly!

I am still interested in whether the activities of the mouse can be saved as macros. For example, open, and select options from the drop-down menu from toolbar, as for example replacing characters in a text file.
And specifically, can you make a macro that would delete (selected and) highlighted text.
