Question

I have a text file containing text like:

['22APR2012 23:10', '23APR2012 07:10', 1, 3, 0], ['22APR2012 23:10', '23APR2012 07:20', 1, 3, 0], ['22APR2012 23:15', '23APR2012 06:40', 0, 1, 0], ['22APR2012 
23:15', '23APR2012 06:40', 1, 3, 0], ['22APR2012 23:15', '23APR2012 06:40', 0, 1, 0], ['22APR2012 23:15', '23APR2012 07:00', 1, 3, 0], ['22APR2012 23:15', '23APR2012 
07:00', 0, 1, 0], ['22APR2012 23:20', '23APR2012 09:35', 0, 1, 0], ['22APR2012 23:20', '23APR2012 09:35', 1, 3, 0], ['22APR2012 23:20', '23APR2012 10:10', 1, 3, 0], 
['22APR2012 23:25', '23APR2012 05:35', 1, 3, 0], 

I want the lines break at ], characters:

['22APR2012 19:30', '23APR2012 00:25', 0, 1, 0], 
['22APR2012 19:35', '23APR2012 01:45', 1, 3, 0],
['22APR2012 19:50', '23APR2012 05:25', 1, 3, 0],
['22APR2012 19:50', '23APR2012 05:25', 0, 1, 0],
['22APR2012 19:55', '23APR2012 06:25', 1, 3, 0],

Is there a way to do it in Notepad++, or any other editor?
