[script] Copy brackets or quotes content

[fred_gaou]

Note: thanks pjj

Hi,

There are 2 scripts that come with 2 icons to use with button.





Features example for brackets and embraces processing:

if a line content is

Code: Select all

 {bli bli bli (na na na) bli [he he he] bli bli} bla bla bla

and if caret | is at the following example position

{|bli bli| bli (|na n|a na|) bli [|he h|e he|] bli bli} bla bla bla

the script will select and copy text between () or [] or {} according to the caret position.

Known limitations:

1/ Some caret | positions are invalid and won't return anything

{bli bli bli (na na na) b|li [he he he] bli| bli} bla bla bla

2/ It works only on one line and if word wrap is disabled.


Features for quotes processing:

Limitations and features are the same as for brackets and embraces processing. It will select and copy text between ' ' or " "

If someone want to help to improve those scripts to remove limitations, one's welcome. I'd like they work on multilines: the lines displayed in current editor view should be enough
