Range parameters
A common concept to all the operations, is “where in the name” the oper-
ation is executed. The range relates to the name that will be processed by
the current operation. If the first operation adds a counter, the range of
the second operation (if any), can be different.
For example, if you want to remove certain characters, you have to define
“where” in the name this should take place. This is set using the “Range”
parameters. There are 2 types of operations:
Operations that act on a range (“from this position to this position”), e.g. “Remove
operations”.
Operations that happen at a specific place (“at this position”), e.g. “Insert opera-
tions”.
The following parameters can be set in the Range section of the dialog:
Range: All/Other/Regular expression
All – The whole text is the range.
Regular expression – The use of regular expressions allows for powerful
editing of the current text, and is intended for advanced users already fa-
miliar with this concept. See “About regular expressions” on page 321.
Other This allows you to independently define the start and end position
of the range, using the parameters in the From/To sections.
