More Tab Features

The new option - Do Not Close Last Document by Selecting Close Command check box.

External Tool Standard Output can now be displayed within EmEditor

When a console program is specified as an external tool, its standard output can now be displayed in the EmEditor window. This makes it easy to capture a compiler's output, to tag jump at an error, and to edit back to the source code.

External Tool Properties
The Use Output Bar check box was added to the External Tool Properties dialog box.		 Tool Output Bar
The tool's standard output is now displayed in the Output Bar.

Quick Start

EmEditor can now be loaded without displaying its window at the EmEditor tray icon's startup. This makes EmEditor window launch much faster.

Customize dialog box
The Quick Start check box was added to make EmEditor launch faster.

Other ActiveScript Support

ActiveScript languages other than JavaScript and VBScript can now be used. For instance, you can use PerlScript, PHPScript, Python, Ruby, and many other ActiveScript languages as long as the script engines you would like to use are installed on your system. For example:

[PerlScript]

#language = "PerlScript"
$Window->document->write( 'Hello!' );

[PHPScript]

#language = "PHPScript"
$Window->document->write( "Hello!" );

[Python]

#language = "Python"
Window.document.write( 'Hello' );

[RubyScript]

#language = "RubyScript"
Window.document.write( "Hello!" );

Macros written by PerlScript

Windows Vista Ready!

EmEditor is now Windows Vista ready! EmEditor is aware of the new security feature called the User Account Control in Windows Vista, and allows you to run as usual in a least privileges environment. A few administrative settings are clearly visibly distinguished by marks as below.
