I\'m using Notepad++ and I can\'t figure this out :
I have numerous lines all starting with http
. I need to add some text in front of it in every line.
Please find the Screenshot below which Add a new word at the start and end of the line at a single shot
This allows you to type on every line simultaneously.
I found the solution above here.
I think this is much easier than using regex.
Here is my answer. To add ');' to the end of each line I do 'Find What: $' and 'Replace with: \);' you need to do escape;
Notepad++ Add Word To Start Of Every Line
Follow this instruction to write anything at the start of every line with Notepad++
Open Notepad++,
Press Cntrl+H open the Find/Replace Dialog.
Now type ^ in the Find what textbox (Type ^ without any spaces)
Type anything(like in our example I am writing "John ") in the Replace with textbox (Write text one/more space for adding one/more space after your text in every line)
Select the Regular Expression option
Place your cursor in the first line of your file to ensure all lines are affected
Click Replace All button
Notepad++ Add Text To End Of Every Line
Follow this instruction to write anything at the end of every line with Notepad++
Open Notepad++,
Press Cntrl+H open the Find/Replace Dialog.

Select the Regular Expression option

Well, I am posting this after such a long time but this will the easiest of all.
To add text at the beginning/a-certain-place-from-start for all lines, just click there and do ALT+C and you will get the below box. Type in your text and click OK and it's done.
To add a certain text at end of all lines, do CTRL+F, and choose REPLACE. You will get the below box. Put in '$' in 'find what' and in 'replace with' type in your text.Make sure you choose 'regular expression' in the search mode (left down). Finally click 'replace all' and you are done.
Notepad++ has a very powerful editing capability. (Today I'm searching for the similar function in Sublime Text), but for Notepad++, just hold Alt when you drag the mouse. What you type will then replace the selected column on every line. To insert without replacing existing text, use Alt-Shift.
