[Share My Idea] Plugin to insert leading number Alt+C

[hycmos]

function: column mode to insert increasing leading number at everyline (Same as Notepad++)

1) you can find menu Plugins--> Make Plugin
2) Click it
3 )Plugname=MyaltC,module name=MyaltC,items=MyaltC>run
4) OK
5) At line 27, find "def run(self)"
6) replace all of def run(self) with:

Code: Select all

    def run(self):
        cnt = ed.get_carets()
        altCnum=dlg_input_ex(4, 'Number be inserted',
              'start'   , text1="0", label2="Step by", text2="1",
              label3="Leading Char", text3="",label4="Following Char", text4="")
        if altCnum==None:return()
        i=0
        for a_cnt in cnt:
            altCtxt=int(altCnum[0])+i*int(altCnum[1])
            altCtxt=altCnum[2]+str(altCtxt)+altCnum[3]
            a_caret=a_cnt[0]
            if a_cnt[0]>a_cnt[2]:
                a_caret=a_cnt[2]
            ed.insert(a_caret, a_cnt[1], altCtxt)
            i=i+1

7) Now restart CudaText. you can find new menu in "Plugins-->MyaltC", even you can assign a hotkey 'alt+C' to this.
8) get the Alt-C function same as many editor
Thank too the Cudatext's power python API,
this function is more powerfull than NP++'s Alt+C. This can add following char.

sorry… not tested your code
but, there is plugin Insert Numbers
not the same?

Plugin InsertNumbers has good quality, but the snippet above a) don't check if selection made, b) works bad if n carets on the same line (you must iterate carets from last to first). But i like the approach!

sorry, I did not know the plugin "insert number" before. Can not find it in sf.net nor totalcmd.net.
Could you show me the link to this plugin?

In my code, I try to implement the same column selection function as Notepad++.
1) alt+(left mouse) to select multiline texts;
2) keyboard (alt+C) to show a dialog to set "start number/step"(for example,start number=0/step=1);
3) then at every first column of the selected box, 0/1/2/3...will be inserted to every line.
BTW, I added the leading char and the following char to this inserted number, which is not implemented in NP++(this shows the Cuda's powerful potential.）

this plugin is special for this same function as NP++'s.

Plugin was medged into plugin "Number Utils" long ago.
You can make patches-

I tested the plugin "Number Utils" .
It is very good.
I would not write this post if I find this plugin.
I use it Now.

Thanks!
