How can I delete rest of the line after a specific string?
I'm looking for a way to search for a specific string e.g. '=UUID:' and delete it and all following characters per line. I would prefer a way/macro/addon for notepad++. But all other tools or scripts are welcome :)
Before
*://81.88.22.6/*=UUID:63969B2469B7A94EBBDBD7CB5B9C00BA
*://*-ad.cgi*=UUID:3C8EFF48B674CC42BF5B6E2B7BA820E7
*://*-ads/*=UUID:0D6CF7D5BE3F034C8A136CC99A074406
Note that the numbers are always different per line so you couldn't do a search 'n replace with them.
Should look like this after
*://81.88.22.6/*
*://*-ad.cgi*
*://*-ads/*
Solution 1:
Search mode regular expression, Find
=UUID:.*
Replace with nothing.
Solution 2:
It's easy. Your question:
*://81.88.22.6/*=UUID:63969B2469B7A94EBBDBD7CB5B9C00BA
*://*-ad.cgi*=UUID:3C8EFF48B674CC42BF5B6E2B7BA820E7
*://*-ads/*=UUID:0D6CF7D5BE3F034C8A136CC99A074406
My answer:
[=].*
Result:

Explanation:
= character, represent the character you want to remove
.* characters, represent all the characters after that
That's it.
