I am not allowed to install wine in my ubuntu 18.04, so I cannot install notepad++.
Is there any alternative to Notepad++ Analyse Plugin, as some text editor which supports similar functionality.
List all instances of particular text, multiple text in order of their occurrences.
Example
Abc
def
123
Abc
123
Filter logs:
Abc
123
Abc
123
I installed Atom, but it can find and list only one search.
Please suggest.
Notepad++ (notepad-plus-plus) is a snap package in the default repositories of all currently supported versions of Ubuntu. To install Notepad++ open the terminal and type:
sudo snap install notepad-plus-plus
To add Notepad++ navigation to other drives besides the default drive:
sudo snap connect notepad-plus-plus:removable-media
Even though the window title says [Administrator] this file is opened with normal user permissions in Notepad++.
To install AnalysePlugin in Notepad++ select Plugins → Plugins Admin… -> Available tab → check AnalysePlugin -> click Install button in the top right corner as shown in the below screenshot.
After restarting Notepad++ the options for AnalysePlugin will be shown in Plugins → AnalysePlugin.
I am answering slightly differently, because it seems to be an XY problem. Most likely you are trying to get a list of unique lines, and if it's a log, you are not very likely to want to edit it. Therefore, you are unlikely asking for an editor, this is just what you have used on Windows, so think that no other way is possible.
On GNU/Linux a better alternative would be to use uniq command in the terminal. Simply pipe any output into it, and it will remove duplicate lines. For example if you have a file ~/logs/log1 you can simply do:
cat ~/logs/log1 | uniq
and you will get all the unique lines. If the list is too large and you want to be able to scroll you can do:
cat ~/logs/log1 | uniq | less
and finally if you do want to edit the file afterwards, you can simply output to a different file and then edit it
cat ~/logs/log1 | uniq > ~/logs/log1-filtered
