if 3520767 is variable?

EDIT:

Solution

  • Here is a way to go:

    • Ctrl+H
    • Find what: ^.*?\K/\s+[a-z]?\d+
    • Replace with: EMPTY
    • Replace all

    Explanation:

    ^           : begining of line
.*?         : 0 or more any character, not greedy
\K          : forget all we have seen until now
/           : slash
\s+         : 1 or more space
[a-z]?      : an optional letter
\d+         : 1 or more digits
