New User Usage Question

Post by sehlat »

Is it possible to do the following in AkelPad, even if I make it portable so it works from my flash drive?

Step 1. Replace using Regular Expression Search

i.e. Replace "[^"]" -> "" (delete all characters except quote marks)

Step 2. Replace all pairs of quotes ("") with nothing. (I already know this works.)

Step 3. Search and bookmark all lines having a quote mark (")

Step 4. Undo the changes made in steps 1 and 2 while leaving the bookmarks place so I can check those lines.

Any help appreciated. I badly need a portable editor for doing this sort of work. Thanks in advance for any help or advice.
