I have a list of lines that say things like:
aaa|x
bbb|x
ccc|x
I would like to get rid of the |x in all the lines.
How would I do this in:
OpenOffice
RegExbuddy
Textpipe Pro
WinAutomation
Edit Pad Pro
Wordpad
What kind of macro is this called, because I can't make head or tail of the meanings in the macro manuals and I don't think any of them allow this kind of stuff. I would imagine there's a really easy way to do this in OpenOffice, and that in RegExbuddy you have to know regex I certainly do not. There must be really cool ways to do it in Textpipe Pro etc, but I haven't the slightest clue!

Ok, I see all I have to do is replace all the |x's, but for next time when I need to erase varying values but which are positioned in the same place in the lines, like:
|x
|y
|z
What would I do then?
|x
|y
|z
What would I do then?

It's called Block Selection.
