[Ask] Find and Replace with notepad++

hello all,
I'm confused to find and replace using notepad++
the file.txt content is like this:

[any text here] word 1
[any word here] word 2
[text here] word 3
[texts here] word 4
[problem here] word 5
and then

Code (markup):

I want to remove the text between "[" and "]" sign and also remove them so it will looks like this:

word 1
word 2
word 3
word 4
word 5

Code (markup):

thanks

 

Not entirely sure I follow that but you want to "find" what it is you have to remove and replace it with nothing.

yes mate, I want to find every text inside [ and ] sign and replace it with nothing

thanks

 

Did that help? Just leave the replace field empty.

Nigel

 

each text inside [ and ] has different text and it about 2k+ line
so how to remove them at once using regex?

thanks

 

ahh I see, I would ask this in the programming forum. That sort of php is beyond the scope of my skillset. A quick bit of google fu shows me that is doable though.

I would actually ask this here http://stackoverflow.com/

I don't quite know how to do this so its interesting now. I will poke around a sec and see if I can sort it out.

1. Open Notepad++
2. Ctrl + F
3. Choose "Replace" Tab
4. "Find what" --> fill with word that you want to replace , in you case then [
5. "Replace" --> backspace
6. Click Replace / Replace all

 

@aandamar, you have got pm.
