Can you use Find and Replace in Sublime text?

What I do in these situations is bust out notepad and replace all instances of jm "{mt}

Then either manually look for .{/mt}" and replace them all, or, if not shared by multiple characters, replace just that bit.

Copy/paste back into your preferred editor and done.

Oh, if it's like actual regex then this should be what you want:

Code: Select all

(jm "{mt})(.)+({/mt}")

(Oh and if it complains about the backslash then use this one, but I think the first one should be fine probably)

Code: Select all

(jm "{mt})(.)+({\/mt}")

Whenever I have to do regex stuff, I find RegExr really helpful (plus a regex cheatsheet site haha). That said, I've not used Sublime Text or anything so I'm not sure if that's the exact format you need.

I mean, the ACTUAL answer is you shouldn't be doing that anyway and should be using what_prefix and what_suffix instead...

{i}{color=#76e6f7}TEXT{/color}{/i}

init python:
    def male_thought(tag, argument, contents):
        return [
            (renpy.TEXT_TAG, u"i"),
            (renpy.TEXT_TAG, u"color=#ff9000"),
        ] + contents + [
            (renpy.TEXT_TAG, u"/color"),
            (renpy.TEXT_TAG, u"/i"),
        ]
    config.custom_text_tags["mt"] = male_thought

I tried it both in Sublime & Notepad++, unfortunately it does not work. I have tried that one before, or something very similar.
Does that site work for Python, because I don't see it as an option in the pulldown? Or does it not matter?
Appreciate your time & the links!

(jm \"{mt})(.)+({\/mt}\")

Got it, it looks like this site covers Python regex. The main thing being that it wanted me to use an escape character for the quotation marks too haha. A lot of time when there's a character that's commonly used in code as well (things like / or ") it needs a character to tell it to literally use that char instead of it being some code thing (this is known as an escape character, often a \). Does this work?

Code: Select all

(jm \"{mt})(.)+({\/mt}\")

(Regex is useful to get a grasp on just in general for situations like this, though yeah if every line of dialogue from a character uses the same style tag it would probably be better to use a prefix)

{}

(jm \"\{mt\})(.)+(\{\/mt\}\")

jm "{ft}$&{/ft}"

The descriptions of what_prefix and what_suffix seems self-explanatory, tbh.
