Re: How do I count lines that match a regex?

I have PSPad 4.6.2 on Windows 7 Pro. I don't have a wc program so how can I use PSPad to count the lines in a plain text file that begin with '\d+\.'?

If this feature does not exist, can you add it?

Thank you! Great program BTW.

Hi, this should be straigtforward with the current functionality.
Use the search pattern
^\d+\.
in the search dialog (Ctrl+F)
check [x] Regular Expression
and press the [Count] button.
