I have got characters like that in my notepad++
When i am trying to copy whole line, i am actually copying everything until "NUL":
File:1
What i want to do, is replace those null, to be nothing, so i can copy my whole line. Maybe there is any keyword that will tell notepad++(or any other program that might help) to replace those characters? When i am selecting it, use Right Click and then "clear", its gone - but i dont want to do it one by one.
I don't care about removing the cause of this problem, just the effect(NULs)
Try Find and Replace. type \x00 in Find text box, check the Regular expression option. Leave Replace textbox blank and click on replace all. short cut key for find and replace is ctrl+H.
Highlight a single null character, goto find replace - it usually automatically inserts the highlighted text into the find box. Enter a space into or leave blank the replace box.
Click Search --> Replace --> Find What: \0 Replace with: "empty" Search mode: Extended --> Replace all
I was having same problem. The above put me on the right track but was not quite correct in my case. What did work was closely related:
\x00
Open Notepad++
Select Replace (Ctrl/H)
Find what: \x00
Replace with:
Click on radio button Regular expression
Click on Replace All
I tried to use the \x00 and it didn't work for me when using C# and Regex. I had success with the following:
//The hexidecimal 0x0 is the null character
mystring.Contains(Convert.ToChar(0x0).ToString() );
// This will replace the character
mystring = mystring.Replace(Convert.ToChar(0x0).ToString(), "");
