How to add a space if 2 conditions are met from a wall of text file?
I have a .txt file that has stock tickers such as $AAPL, but the issue is that these tickers are stuck to other words such as "$AAPL24H" but instead I want it to be "$APPL 24H" so essentially I want python or some sort of text editor to go ahead and look at a .txt file > every time it sees the symbol "$" > it should move 4 letters > and then enter space
So that $APPL24H > turns into $AAPL 24H if that makes sense.
I have 0 programming but I was hoping you guys can hook me up with a YouTube video that would help me out here? Thanks!
Solution
Using Notepad++.
- Ctrl+H
- Find what:
\$.... - Replace with:
$0# there is a space after$0 - CHECK Wrap around
- CHECK Regular expression
- UNCHECK
. matches newline - Replace all
Explanation:
\$ # $ sign, have to be escaped as it has special meaning in regex
.... # 4 any character but newline
Replacement:
$0 # the whole match followed by a space
