Adding a prefix?

[terrypin]

I suspect I've forgotten some basic option...

How would I get data like this

1: Tuesday 2nd July, 2019
2: Wednesday 3rd July, 2019
3: Thursday 4th July, 2019
.
.
11: Friday 12th July, 2019
12: Saturday 13th July, 2019



converted to this please?

Day 1: Tuesday 2nd July, 2019
Day 2: Wednesday 3rd July, 2019
Day 3: Thursday 4th July, 2019
.
.
Day 11: Friday 12th July, 2019
Day 12: Saturday 13th July, 2019

If it matters, the Day number would never exceed 99.

are there lines in the file that don't need the prefix?

If not, search for

Code: Select all

^

and replace with

Code: Select all

Day_

Otherwise, search for

Code: Select all

^\d+:_(?:Mon|Tues|Wednes|Thurs|Satur|Sun)day

and replace with

Code: Select all

Day:_$0

(_ should be a space)

Many thanks, that works a treat!

I hadn't realised that ^ could be used in that solo fashion.
