v8.60 [03-15-13]

ASCII art files Added better support for ASCII art files.

  • Added Unicode font support. E.g. "Lucida Console", "Courier New"... "Terminal" font still works but some characters may not display properly.
  • Open/save should work properly without stripping some characters.
  • Alt+ codes (e.g. Alt+0128).
  • Added more ASCII symbols in the bottom bar.
  • Bottom bar ASCII symbols are inserted properly.
Options Redesigned the options dialog.
  • All pages are scrollable. That makes it possible to add more options to each page and also to have less pages.
  • The main option window is resizable.
  • Themes are now handled much differently (more on this below).
  • All highlighter settings, not affected by themes, have been moved and can now be set globally, or with each selected highlighter.
  • Check boxes and radio buttons are bigger, which makes them easier to use on high resolution screens.
Themes (editor color themes) Themes are now presented in a simple drop down list. You simply select the theme you want for each highlighter. Add new theme To add a new theme you only have to copy the .xml file to the color theme folder. When you open the options dialog, the new theme is available in the drop down list. Create a new theme
  • Next to the theme drop down list is an action button. Click on it and select "Create new theme...".
  • A dialog window asks for the theme name, author name and a description.
  • The manual color and text controls becomes active and two new buttons are displayed - "Done" and "Abort". Change the colors you want and press "Done" when finished.
You can always modify your color settings by selecting "Modify theme" in the action menu. Modify theme You can modify any theme you want. Themes are stored in the program settings so the theme files in the color theme folder are not changed in any way.
  • Select "Modify theme" in the action menu.
  • The two buttons "Done" and "Abort" are visible again and color and text controls are activated.
  • Make your changes and press "Done".
Your theme has now been modified. Information... With this menu action you can rename the theme, change the author or description. Save As... Save the theme to a file. Remove theme... Removes the theme from settings. If a theme file is present in the color theme folder - it is reloaded. So, when you remove a theme you are given the option to delete the color theme file (if one is found). RTL Edit... Edit selection or current line in a simple RTL edit window. This can be useful if you have some text inside HTML or XML tags in Arabic, Hebrew... (S)FTP synchronize Made some cosmetic changes in the synchronize window. Auto update check Added items in options. I've also made some other changes to prevent problems if the check fails. Recent files (dropdown button in toolbar) Redesigned the recent files drop down menu.
  • It is now scrollable and can contain any number of files.
  • Each item have two rows. The file name and the full path below.
  • Each item can be selected using a checkbox at the right edge. This enables you to open several files at once or delete several entries.
At the bottom there are three buttons. "Clear list", "Open" and "Delete". You can open a file, as you always have, by simply select (click on) a file. You can also open several files at once by checking the files you wish to open. You can do this by checking the checkbox using the mouse or press [space]. You can also delete entries by checking them and press the delete button. Favorite files (dropdown button in toolbar) This menu works very much as the one above. It is now scrollable, each item have two rows, each item can be selected using a checkbox and at the bottom there are three buttons. "Add current document", "Open" and "Delete". Add current document will, of course, add the current document to the favorite list. Open and delete works just as with recent files. Sessions (dropdown menu in toolbar) This drop down menu works very much as the onces above, but displayed is the session name and a description. And there is no "Open" button, since you can only open one session at a time. Remote files (FTP and SFTP) The recent file list, favorite files and sessions should now fully support remote files. FTP Explorer It is now possible to select several files and folders at once, to open or delete. If a remote file is already opened - the editor switch to the open file.

If the text does not use fixed font widths, tabs are used to separate the columns. Left/right arrow moves caret to start/end of selection Added this as an option. Normally, the text caret is moved one step when you hit the left/right arrows and any selection is cleared. With this option set, the caret will move to the beginning or end of the current selection (and clear the selection...). Fixed As always, several issues where fixed and minor improvement made. For more details see the forum.

    v7.03 [12-19-10]

    Fixed editor disappears issue I finally managed to reproduce the issue. It's a synchronize issue between the background thread, that updates code folding, and the main thread. I have only been able to reproduce it on Intel Core i7 (8 cores with hyper threading), but it may occur on other systems as well. I actually haven't received a single bug report on the issue, so it may not occur very often. But it is a serious bug, hence the update.

    - to begin of sentence
    - to end of sentence

    Delete:
    - Sentence
    - to begin of sentence
    - to end of sentence

    Also fixed select/delete to begin/end of line when using word wrap. Nested comments Fixed some issues with nested comments and made sure you can use comment identifiers that contain a line comment identifier.

    E.g.

    LineComment = '
    CommentStart = '*
    CommentEnd = *'

    Auto Complete and Tag Complete Variables
    You can now define variables when creating completion items in a syntax file.

    E.g.
    In the syntax editor we can add the following items to the auto complete section:

    @myVar1
    - Item 1
    - Item 2
    - Item 3

    @myVar2
    - Item 1
    - Item 2

    MyClass1.
    - @myVar1
    - @myVar2
    - Item 6
    - Item 7 Spell check dialog Tags are now ignored when using the spell check dialog. attributes in XML tags are still checked. New script object (WStrings) This object can be used to store WideStrings (Unicode). It's basically a normal string list but uses WideStrings instead of ANSI strings. Misc I've fixed several issues and made several small improvements. Most changes should be listed in the forum.

    v6.0 [02-13-10]

    Multi Paste As with all other multi-edit features you position multiple text cursors or make several selections using Ctrl+LeftMouseButton. Then simply use "Paste" (Ctrl+V) to insert text, from the clipboard, in all instances at once.

    This feature works with text clips that contain several lines, but there is one limitation. You can only insert one multiple line clip per line. If you have two selections on the same line, only the first selection is replace when you paste. You can insert as many one line clips as you want though, even on the same line. Syntax Files

    • I've added a JSP syntax file in this version.
    • You can now use [] arrays with auto completion, e.g. List[index].
    Text Clip Manager Added buttons to sort or position your clips as you like in the lower list. You can also insert separators by adding an item called "-". Misc
    • Updated the help on syntax files.
    • Double click on document tab bar will open a new document.
    • Added option to assign files without an extension to a highlighter. (Preferences -> Editor - File).
    • Added a button for RegEx help in all search dialogs.
    • May have fixed some Unicode path issues.
    • Illegal control characters are now removed when you open the file. A message is displayed to inform the user when this happens.
    • Added a silent option to the "Document.ReplaceAll" script function.
    • Updated the regex dll to a newer version.
    Several issues has been fixed in this version. Most very minor and are reported in the forum.

    v5.90 [01-24-10]

    Multi Edit and multi select Multi edit and multi select let you select or position a text cursor in several places at ones, by holding the CTRL key. Ones you've made your selections or cursor placements you can start editing. All instances at the same time.

    Please check out the "Multi Edit and Multi Select" topic in the help file for more information. You can use most normal functions like typing, backspace, delete and cut/copy/paste. You can also use the case functions for selections. Some restrictions though when editing two, or more, instances at ones.

    • You can only delete till the end of line. If you reach EOL on one line, nothing will happen in that place when you hit the "Del" key.
    • You can only backspace till the beginning of line.
    • Some keys like "Enter" or the arrow keys will bring you out of multi edit mode.
    User Clipboards Added 5 user clipboards. You can switch between "Windows Clipboard" and the user clipboards with the "Shift+Alt+0..5" shortcuts or in the "Edit" menu. After switching you use the normal cut/copy/paste functions.

    Please check out the "User Clipboards" topic in the help file for more information. Project Manager Added some new features and fixed some issues.
    • Project name is displayed in the title.

    v5.80 [12-31-09]

    Project file navigation and auto completion Made some changes in the source code parsers to include more information about the code. This information is used with auto completion and to navigate in the code.

    • Auto completion ( Ctrl + J ) now includes all functions (not class members) available in your project files, as well as all class members. To display functions just press Ctrl+J at an empty spot.
    • Go to Declaration. Added as an context menu item. Position the text cursor over a function, class object or a class member and select the context menu item. The correct file will open and the text cursor will be positioned at the function or class member declaration.
    • Go to Implementation. Added as an context menu item. This is used with C/C++ and Delphi/Pascal files. Class members are, in these languages, divided into a declaration and an implementation part. You can e.g. use the context menu item "Go to Implementation" when the text cursor is over the class member declaration in header file e.g. Test.h, and "Go to Declaration" from the Test.cpp file to navigate back to the declaration.
    • Also fixed a few issues with projects and parsing.
    Fold selected text This feature can be used to make selected text fold able.
    • Create fold from selection: Select text and use the context menu item or editor tool bar item to make the selection fold able. A normal [+] node should be visible at the top of the selection.
    • Remove selection fold: Position the text cursor inside the fold and select this feature to remove the selection fold.
    New syntax file fold option Added a new fold option to handle "If" statements in Visual Basic that doesn't have an "End If" at the end.

    NotAlwaysEnded = Insert line breaks Rewrote the feature. It should work properly in word wrap mode and with undo/redo. Remove line breaks Rewrote the feature. It should work properly in word wrap mode and with undo/redo. Open selected files (in the project tab) Can also be used to open a folder. Just select a folder and use "Open selected files". Fixed Fixed several bugs reported in the forum, or sent by email. See the forum for more information.

    New dll to handle explorer context menu item There were some issues with the old dll so I made a new one. Two dll files included are rjshell.dll and rjshell64.dll. Faster startup Found a few bottlenecks and changed the compression of the exe file. It should start a little faster. Macro shortcuts You can now use Atl+0 .. Alt+9 as macro shortcuts. Copy line if no selection If no selection is made, the whole line is copied to the clipboard when using "copy to clipboard" (Ctrl+C). Drag n drop When using drag n drop, in the editor, the text selection is preserved. This makes it easier to copy text to multiple destinations using drag n drop. Script function Added "GetCurrentLanguageFileName()" to the MainApp object. Html entities Enteties are now highlighted in the text. You may have to change the color though. Fold highlighting in Html Enabled fold highlighting in Html code. It looks good with proper formatting. Fixed Fixed several issues in this release including a serious SFTP issue.

    The tab list is visible when using multiple tab rows as well, but multiple tab rows may not be necessary anymore...

    It is now possible to set a max tab width in options (Style and fonts). Page controls and tabs Changed the look of the left/right arrows that are displayed when the tabs doesn't fit the display anymore.

    Also fix some flicker issues. Paste RTF as HTML Paste RTF data from the clipboard and convert the data to HTML. It's a very simple implementation so you may still have to do some manual editing. Change document encodings to Renamed the menu item "Convert codepage to" in the format menu into "Change document encodings to".

    Added a More... dialog to select any encoding the system supports. Menu bar (main menu) Fixed some issues with key navigation using the "Alt" key. Using "Alt" and the arrows to navigate should work properly now. Also fixed a focus issue (some functions became disabled when using key navigation).
