After you've checked the regular expression choice:

Find: (\S+)\s(\S+)\.$
replace: $1 $2 $1.

CTRL + H

at search method select 

Expandend (\n, \r, \t, \0, \x...)

and with the search fields you select

At search for you enter : \n 
At Replace by you enter : My specific string \n

Or use macro's

  • menu > Macro > start recording
  • Hit [END]
  • Press left arrow <-
  • press down CTRL + SHIFT and hit the <- left arrow once so the last word is selected
  • press right key ->
  • hit SPACE
  • press CTRL + V
  • menu > Macro > stop recording
  • menu > Macro > Save Macro
  • Name: Name of the macro
  • Key combination of which keys will trigger the macro
  • Press OK.

Open the Replace window and check Regular expression:

Find what: \b(\w+)\.$
Replace with: \1 \1.

\b(\w+)\.$ is a simple regex that matches the last word before the period. The word is captured into the first group (\1 or $1 both work in Notepad++), so it can be used twice while replacing.
