I'm using UltraEdit. I have a text file that contains strings like this
Workspace\\Trays\\Dialogs\\Components, Expand, kThisComputerOnly, P_BOOLEAN },
WebCommonDialog Sign_Out, Left, kThisComputerOnly, P_INTEGER_RANGE(0, 4096) },
ThreeDTextDlg, x, kThisComputerOnly, P_INTEGER_RANGE(0, 4096) },
Preferences\\Graphics, CtxDbgMaxGLVersionMajor, kThisComputerOnly, P_INTEGER },
UltraEdit allows PERL, UNIX and UltraEdit style RegEx. I need to select the second comma and everything to the end of the line and delete it.
Using regexpal.com I've tried several different approaches but can't figure it out.
/,\s.+/ selects the first comma
/[,]\s.+/ same as above
I can't figure out how to select the second command and beyond.
I have also search StackOverflow and found several examples but couldn't change them to work for me.
Thanks.
You may use a Perl regex option with the following pattern:
^([^,]*,[^,]*),.*
and replace with \1.
See the regex demo.
Details:
^ - start of string([^,]*,[^,]*) - Group 1 (later referred to with \1 backreference from the replacement pattern):
[^,]* - any 0+ chars other than a comma (to prevent overflowing across lines, add \n\r into the negated character class - [^,\n\r]*), - a comma[^,]* - any 0+ chars other than a comma , - a comma.* - any 0+ chars other than line break chars as many as possible
