Edit several specific Lines at once

#1

Hi,

I wanna get rid of the mm:ss Timecode at the end of a few lines:

52

I know with ⌘ + A and ⌘ + ⇧ + L I can Blockedit the document … But this is not useful, because this mm:ss TC is not present in every line.

Is that even possible?!

Please note, this is only an example, the document I’m working on has over 2.600 lines

Thankful for any advice!

  • You can learn regex and use it in the find panel to select all of them.
    • Regex replace (\d+:\d+:\d+:\d+\s+\d+:\d+:\d+:\d+)\s+\d+:\d+ with \1.
  • Plus, holding cmd/ctrl (?) while clicking will add another cursor.
