I had just responded with this in this similar question, but it looks like a more fitting answer for here, and I'm guessing that this Question Title would get more hits... so, I'm posting here and hoping it isn't some kind of faux pas... (perhaps it should just be a link to the other?)

class startAnchor:
    pos = 0

def selectGOTO( args ):
    endPos = editor.getCurrentPos()
    if( endPos > startAnchor.pos ):
        startAnchor.pos = editor.positionFromLine( editor.lineFromPosition( startAnchor.pos ) )
    else:
        tmp = startAnchor.pos
        startAnchor.pos = endPos
        endPos = tmp
    endPos = editor.getLineEndPosition( editor.lineFromPosition( endPos ) )
    editor.setSel( startAnchor.pos, endPos )
    editor.clearCallbacks()

def main():
    startAnchor.pos = editor.getCurrentPos()
    editor.callback( selectGOTO, [SCINTILLANOTIFICATION.UPDATEUI] )
    notepad.menuCommand( MENUCOMMAND.SEARCH_GOTOLINE )

main()

I got a better answer. You could record a macro ( deleting for example 10 lines ) . Then run it several times .

1) Go to Macro > Start recording

2) hold Shift and tap Down to mark for example 10 lines . And delete them.

3) Go to Macro > Stop Recording

Now your macro is recorded, you can save it for using in the future .

4) Go to Macro > Save Current Recording Macro... . And save it with a name .

5) Move cursor to line that you want to delete lines after that.Then go to Macro > Run A Macro Multiple Times... . And select your macro and run it N times that you want.
