    My file contains multiple display equation tags in the form

    <formula id="dqn1">....</formula> , <formula id="dqn2-6">....</formula>, <formula id="dqn7-8">....</formula>, <formula id="dqn9">....</formula> <formula id="dqn10">....</formula>

    and cross-reference (link) them with

    <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn1">(1)</xref>, <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn3">(3)</xref> , <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn5">(5)</xref> <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn7">(7)</xref>&#x2013;<xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn8">(8)</xref>

    I would like a script which modifies the above colored tags to

    <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn2-6">(3)</xref>
    <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn2-6">(5)</xref>
    <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn7-8">(7)&#x2013;(8)</xref>

    and keep the other tags intact.

    How could that be done?

      What is the rule which defines that

      <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn3">(3)</xref>

      should be modified to

      <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn2-6">(3)</xref>

      and

      <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn5">(5)</xref>

      should be also modified to

      <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn2-6">(5)</xref>

      That is completely unclear for me.

      An UltraEdit regular expression Replace All can be used for the last two references.

      Find what: ^(rid="dqn^)^([0-9]+^)^(">([0-9]+)^)</xref>&#x2013;<xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn^([0-9]+^)">^(([0-9]+)</xref>^)
      Replace with: ^1^2-^4^3&#x2013;^5

      Same as above with Unix or Perl regular expression engine:

      Find what: (rid="dqn)([0-9]+)(">\([0-9]+\))</xref>&#x2013;<xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn([0-9]+)">(\([0-9]+\)</xref>)
      Replace with: \1\2-\4\3&#x2013;\5

        The rule is: If there are display equation tags in the form "<formula id="dqnDIGIT1-DIGIT2">" and there are individual link ranging from the first (DIGIT) to the last (DIGIT).

        If there are equations in the form say "<formula id="dqn1-4">" and there are links of equations (1), (2), (3) and (4) in the file and they are for some reason in the form

        <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn1">(1)</xref>, <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn2">(2)</xref>, <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn3">(3)</xref> and <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn4">(4)</xref>

        then each of rid="dqnDIGIT" portions will be changed to rid="dqn1-4" since there is no

        <formula id="dqn1">, <formula id="dqn2">, ... <formula id="dqn4">

        equation tag in the file because they are merged.

        So the script needs to search the file for "<formula id="dqnDIGIT1-DIGIT2">" and if it finds positive results, then it will look for rid="dqnDIGIT1" and add +1 to DIGIT1 and find rid="dqnDIGIT1(+1)" until it reaches DIGIT2 and replace the links.

        I hope I made a little bit clearer :|

          Okay, now I have understood the rule for modification of single formula references. But there is one more case which must be taken into account.

          The file contains the formulas:
          • <formula id="dqn1">....</formula>
          • <formula id="dqn2-6">....</formula>
          • <formula id="dqn7-8">....</formula>
          • <formula id="dqn9">....</formula>
          • <formula id="dqn10">....</formula>
          And the file contains also the formula references
          1. <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn1">(1)</xref>
          2. <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn3">(3)</xref>
          3. <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn5">(5)</xref>
          4. <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn7">(7)</xref>&#x2013;<xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn8">(8)</xref>
          5. <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn5">(5)</xref>&#x2013;<xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn10">(10)</xref>
          The first single reference is kept unmodified. The value of attribute rid of single references 2 and 3 can be updated. Also the fourth range reference can be updated as described.

          But how to handle the fifth range reference. Should it be modified to

          <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn2-6">(5)&#x2013;(10)</xref>

          or should it be modified to

          <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn2-6">(5)</xref>&#x2013;<xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn10">(10)</xref>

            Let's say the file contains the formulas:

            Code: Select all

            <formula id="dqn1">....</formula>
            <formula id="dqn2-6">....</formula>
            <formula id="dqn7-8">....</formula>
            <formula id="dqn9">....</formula>
            <formula id="dqn10">....</formula>
            
            The reference

            Code: Select all

            <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn2-6">(5)&#x2013;(10)</xref>
            should be modified to

            Code: Select all

            <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn2-6">(5)</xref><xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn7-8"/><xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn9"/>&#x2013;<xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn10">(10)</xref>
            But those type of links generally do not appear in files. However, the below example does:

            Code: Select all

            <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn7">(7)</xref>, <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn8">(8)</xref>, <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn9">(9)</xref>&#x2013;<xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn10">(10)</xref>
            It should be modified to:

            Code: Select all

            <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn7-8">(7)&#x2013;(8)</xref>, <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn9">(9)</xref>&#x2013;<xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn10">(10)</xref>
            The "," and "space" between </xref> and <xref ref-type="d-formula" is also optional.

              Wow, the requirements for task became more and more complex. It is really necessary to first define an input text block and a suitable output text block containing all cases which must be taken into account before coding the script can even start.

              The use cases we have already found:
              1. Keep a formula reference as is.
              2. Replace just the identifier of a formula reference.
              3. Put together two or more single formula references separated by commas, whitespaces.
              4. Put together a formula reference range.
              5. Split up a formula reference range to single formula references.
              6. Split up a formula reference range to a combination of 1 or more single formula references and 1 or more formula reference ranges.
              Please provide an input and a suitable example output block which can be used to test the script during development.

              I think, it is best the script first loads in to memory all formula identifiers find in active file into two arrays. The first one is for formulas with an identifier in format dqnX (single formula) and the second array is for formula identifiers in format dqnX-Y (formula ranges). Next the script best expands all existing formula reference ranges to their individual formula references. And then the script can really check on reference versus formula and combine as much as possible to formula reference rages.

              By the way: What to do with a formula reference for which no suitable formula identifier could be found? Should such an invalid reference be marked in any way or reported for example in output window with line number?

                  I have two files say FileA and FileB.

                  And FileB (given below) contains some random stuff along will link references of each or some of the equations given in FileA.

                  I want to create a macro which first finds rid="deqnX" on FileA then goes to FileA and finds the same thing and if it finds a match, it goes back to FileA copies the correct id which are " id="deqnX-Y"" and replaces all occurrences of the said link and if it doesn't find a match then it searches the next rid="deqnX" from FileA till the end of the file. I have created a macro which needs some modification. Can anyone help?

                  Macro code:

                    The script for How to find and replace two consecutive link separated by a comma? was not already easy to code. But the script for this task was really a hard challenge. I needed more than 15 hours to code it mainly for thinking on how to handle all those various inputs and possible combinations of cross-references and produce a suitable output.

                    Here is the code of the script:

                    Code: Select all

                    function outputDebugInfo(sDebugInfo)
                    {
                    //   UltraEdit.outputWindow.write(sDebugInfo);
                    }
                    
                    if (UltraEdit.document.length > 0)  // Is any file opened?
                    {
                       // Define environment for this script.
                       UltraEdit.insertMode();
                       UltraEdit.columnModeOff();
                    
                       // Define from which file to read the formula identifiers.
                       var oFormulaDoc = UltraEdit.activeDocument;
                    
                       var nRefIndex;
                       var nFormulaIndex;
                       var anFormulas = new Array();
                    
                       // Select the entire file with the formula identifiers.
                       // There is nothing selected if the file is an empty file.
                       oFormulaDoc.selectAll();

                          // The FROM number is stored in first column of formula row and
                          // the TO number is stored in second column.
                          var asFormulas  = oFormulaDoc.selection.match(/<formula id="dqn\d+-\d+"/g);
                          if (asFormulas != null)

                                references as possible.
                    
                                The base rule for putting a sequence of references together
                                is: The reference numbers are one after the other with each
                                reference number being +1 of previous reference number and
                                no gap between.
                    
                                There are three types of ranges:
                    
                             1. A reference number range within a single reference because the
                                formula identifiers are already put together. E.g. there is
                    
                                   <formula id="dqn2-6">...</formula>
                    
                                and the reference is
                    
                                   <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn2-6">(3)&#x2013;(5)</xref>
                    
                                It is possible for this type of a range that end number is
                                just start number plus 1, for example
                    
                                <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn2-6">(5)&#x2013;(6)</xref>
                    
                             2. A formula reference range because the formula identifiers
                                are still separated. For example there are
                    
                                   <formula id="dqn7">...</formula>
                                   <formula id="dqn8">...</formula>
                                   <formula id="dqn9">...</formula>
                    
                                and the matching reference range is
                    
                                   <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn7">(7)</xref>
                                   <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn8"/>&#x2013;
                                   <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn9">(9)</xref>
                    
                             3. The third range type is a combination of first and second like
                    
                                   <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn2-6">(3)</xref>
                                   <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn7"/>
                                   <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn8"/>&#x2013;
                                   <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn9">(9)</xref>
                    
                                But not put together with a dash is a sequence of exactly
                                2 references with different formula identifiers for first
                                and second reference like
                    
                                   <formula id="dqn7">...</formula>
                                   <formula id="dqn8">...</formula>
                    
                                referenced with

                                   <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn8">(8)</xref>

                    Please study the script line by line from top to bottom and ask if something is unclear. I'm quite sure this is the last script I wrote for your company which takes more than 2 hours to code. I suggest that your company hires a programmer for scripting tasks like this one. I'm sure this is a full time job in your company.

                    Line 5 of the output file produced from input file is different than posted above. Instead of creating

                    Code: Select all

                    <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn2-6">(3)</xref><xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn2-6">(4)</xref><xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn2-6">(5)</xref>
                    the script creates

                    Code: Select all

                    <xref ref-type="d-formula" rid="dqn2-6">(3)&#x2013;(5)</xref>
                    The explanation for this merging behavior can be found in the large block comment in the script which describes the 3 different types of cross-reference ranges handled by the script.

                    Uncomment the line in function outputDebugInfo in third line of the script if you want to see in output window what is going on script execution. You could also uncomment the line var_dump(anFormulas); to see the values of the two dimensional array which holds the identifiers from the formulas/equations as integer numbers.

                    In case of file with the formulas/equations (FileA) is different to the file with the formula references/links (FileB), first modify in the script the line

                    Code: Select all

                    var oFormulaDoc = UltraEdit.activeDocument;
                    to

                    Code: Select all

                    var oFormulaDoc = UltraEdit.document[0];
                    Save the script file, close it and add the script to the Script List.

                    Then open first FileA and second FileB and run the script from the Script List with FileB as active file.

                      The script has a problem that I noticed recently as if there is a link in the format
                      <xref ref-type="display-formula" rid="deqn1">1</xref>
                      or
                      <xref ref-type="display-formula" rid="deqn6">(6v)</xref>
                      it basically converts those links to
                      <xref ref-type="display-formula" rid="deqnNaN">(NaN)</xref>.
                      This should not happen. Parenthesis is not mandatory inside the link tag and neither is the need for the X in rid="deqnX" to be exactly the same as the X in >(X)</xref> or >X</xref>. The file could have a numbered display equation missing, say equation 5, so the id for equation 6 would become deqn5 and so the link would be
                      <xref ref-type="display-formula" rid="deqn5">(6)</xref>
                      or
                      <xref ref-type="display-formula" rid="deqn5">6</xref>.

                        In other words the requirements for the script were incomplete as there are even more variations of data and link format. Well, I don't have to time in the next weeks to think about those new requirements and how to handle those additional variants resulting in Not a Number by parseInt(). Feel free to enhance the script for the new requirements by yourself or wait if somebody else wants to do it for you.

                          inside like <xref ref-type="display-formula" rid="deqn5">5</xref> instead of <xref ref-type="display-formula" rid="deqn5">(5)</xref> and I was looking in the script coding where it checks for that but could not find it as I don't have
                          much knowledge in script writing.

                          Anyways, thanks for your reply. I understand you have other things to do too.

                            After a lot of trials I've come up with a method to write a script for my task which is quite different from Mofi's method of approach and the code is given below.

                            Code: Select all

                            UltraEdit.activeDocument.selectAll();
                            UltraEdit.activeDocument.copy();
                            var my_File = UltraEdit.clipboardContent;
                            var my_exp = /<disp-formula id="deqn\d+-\d+">/g;
                            var find_exp = my_File.match(my_exp);
                            if (find_exp !== null){
                               UltraEdit.newFile();
                               UltraEdit.activeDocument.setActive();
                               for (var i=0; i<find_exp.length; i++){
                                  UltraEdit.activeDocument.write(find_exp[i]+'\n');
                                  find_exp = my_File.match(my_exp);
                               }

                            The files that I've tested with this script so far seem to work as expected, but the script code is a bit redundant as I'm learning JavaScript. So if anyone can tell which portion of the code can be reduced to be more efficient will be very much appreciated.

                            I added also the command UltraEdit.activeDocument.unixMacToDos(); to my script after seeing it in Mofi's FindStringsToNewFile.js script as this line of code turned out to be very important in my script.

                            What does it actually do and why is it needed when I paste/write into a new document?

                            I know this question might sound a bit stupid but I'm not familiar with the code.

                              The encoding of a new file - ANSI or UTF-8 or UTF-16 (Unicode) - and the line ending/terminator type - DOS/Windows or UNIX or MAC - depend on settings in configuration. A script (or macro) should be written to work independent on those settings for new files. It should create the new file always with the encoding and the line ending type as required for the task which is either fixed or depending on file from which the data is taken.

                              This can be most easily achieved by using after UltraEdit.newFile(); the commands

                              UltraEdit.activeDocument.dosToMac();
                              UltraEdit.activeDocument.unicodeToASCII();


                              Now the new file is always an ASCII/ANSI file with DOS line endings.

                              No more commands are needed if that is the required encoding and line ending type for output file.

                              Otherwise the command UltraEdit.activeDocument.ASCIIToUnicode(); can be used now to change the encoding to UTF-16 or UltraEdit.activeDocument.ASCIIToUTF8(); to change encoding to UTF-8.

                              And the command UltraEdit.activeDocument.dosToUnix(); can be used now to change the line ending type to UNIX or UltraEdit.activeDocument.dosToMac(); to change line ending type to MAC..

                              There are no real data conversions executed by those commands because all those commands are executed on a new file not containing any data. So those commands just change the encoding and line terminator type properties of the new file.

                              After those 2 to 4 commands the encoding and line terminator type for the new file are set as required independent on configuration settings and script can continue writing or pasting data into the new file.

                                Thanks Mofi for the info.
                                BTW, does these commands work on UltraEdit version 14.10? My above posted script does not work in it.
                                I could not find any other reason for it not working. Can you tell what the reason might be?
                                Thanks :)
