Ohh man, I can't believe how complicated a macro that turned out to be 8O Thanks Mofi! Keywords for others: remove delete every 2nd other line macro script

It's a small macro that is supposed to delete every second line in a file but stalls in the beginning. InsertMode ColumnModeOff HexOff Top Loop 0 MoveLineDown MoveLineDown DeleteLine ExitLoop EndLoop Top What have I missed?

Ahh, beautiful. Thanks pietzcker! I spent much of the night reading how to do it with unix expressions. I'll have to read up on perl next. Some keywords to help people find it: find word at start of the line cut it select line out paste it into new file txt And the description of what it does... Sea...

Using this thread to modify my own macros I've come up with the problem.. When I search for ^[^@].*\p in a file containing the lines... FFFFFF @GGG AAAAA @BBBB it works properly showing me the lines... FFFFFF AAAAA But when I use it for my own purposes I try searching for ^[^http].*\p in the lines.....

mjcarman I had heard of UltraEdit as I was looking for something that would perform this function. I was disappointed to see it wasn't included but am now happy to have found your script. It seems to work fine. It is the reason I will be purchasing UltraEdit. Thanks.
