title: how to automate a series of search and replace operation in Notepad++
body: <p>I am having a file in which there are number of lines which i have to remove. These lines can be distinguished using regular expression and thus utilizing series of search and replace i am able to remove them. </p>
  
  <p>Now i have to repeat the same task a number of times. So i am looking for a way that i don't need to go through this series of replace again &amp; again. Is there any way to batch/script these series of replace into a single command.</p>
  
  <p>I tried doing so by recording a macro, but does not seems to work.</p>
