User:Tom.Reding/Inc & Dec AWB Module

  • I made this since AWB doesn't have native increment/decrement functions, as far as I can tell.
  • AWB runs custom modules after before your regex rules, so prepare your rules such that pressing F5 (Edit box rclick > Re-parse) doesn't break anything.
  • Surround any numbers you want to increment by 1 with "+++", and any numbers you want to decrement by 1 with "---" (keyboard hyphens); +++19+++---16--- produces 2015.
  • The script also removes

PRESS F5 TO INC +++n+++ AND DEC ---n---
=======================================

which I like to add so I don't miss it.
