在记事本++中的“搜索和替换”功能中增加数字

Question

I've got a big file with a regex filter. I'm converting it from a system to another, but it needs some modification.

Right now it looks like this:

{ 
"chatpattern" "MY REGEX FILTER"
}

But first I want to add a line inbetween the { and the chatpattern by doing the following in the search and replace function:

search: { 
replace: { \r "TEXT" \r

And here comes the problem, after the first line I want the "TEXT" to increment by 1, so it'll be like:

{ 
"TEXT1"
"chatpattern" "MY REGEX FILTER"
}

{ 
"TEXT2"
"chatpattern" "MY REGEX FILTER"
}

{ 
"TEXT3"
"chatpattern" "MY REGEX FILTER"
}

Is this possible?

Here is a perl oneliner that does the job:

perl -pi.back -e 's/\{/"{\ntext".++$i/e;' in.txt

The substitution is done in place.>br> The original file is saved to in.txt.back before processing.
Change the \\n to whatever you want as line break.

in.txt before:

{ 
"chatpattern" "MY REGEX FILTER"
}
{ 
"chatpattern" "MY REGEX FILTER"
}
{ 
"chatpattern" "MY REGEX FILTER"
}

in.txt after:

{
text1 
"chatpattern" "MY REGEX FILTER"
}
{
text2 
"chatpattern" "MY REGEX FILTER"
}
{
text3 
"chatpattern" "MY REGEX FILTER"
}
