Move inline fields en masse to the first line of a file

[anon63144152]

After a couple of hours of regex nowhere-near misses, happiness turns out to be:

1. Listen to @Jopp
2. Leave the notes with inline fields
3. There is no step 3

Thanks to Jopp and holroy.

EDIT: For anyone else with a similar issue, this post at least got the first line:

^(?<![\s\S\r]).*

Batch add front matter

You can do it in VS Code. I wouldn’t say it’s simple, but doable. Please, test this before using it on actual notes, and don’t forget to backup. Find (in regex mode): ^(?<![\s\S\r]) Replace: ---\nkey1: value1\nkey2: value2\n---\n\n Edit keys and values according to your needs, separating each line with \n.
