assuming a file is binary by its extension is very error-prone, (it is not guaranteed that the extension points to a binary file).no clear-cut way for Notepad++ to decide what a binary file is (we don't want to miss files that look like binaries but aren't).I understand that the previously discussed solutions have their issues: Also, searching (with or without replace) over a larger directory structure will take significantly longer if a lot of binary files are present, especially if they are large. Corrupted binary files may be the result.
Disclaimer: If this is the wrong place for a feature request and corresponding discussion, I'd be happy to move the issue elsewhere if someone could point me in the right direction.Īs has been noted before, the feature to search and replace within files can be dangerous, since Notepad++ will not distinguish between binary and non-binary files.
