Notepad++ add to every line

I’m using Notepad++ and I can’t figure this out :

I have numerous lines all starting with http. I need to add some text in front of it in every line. Also, I need to add different text to the end of each line. Each line ends differently.

What is the fastest way to add text to the start and end of each line?

  2. Type test in the Replace with textbox
  3. Place cursor in the first line of the file to ensure all lines are affected
  4. Click Replace All button
