According to what i have read in the past i wouldn't expect a new version of emeditor free. All the features requested is available in the full version and it's only $39.99. It's not free of course, but $39.99 is pretty close to free. You get a great editor pretty cheap and upgrades been free since version 4 unless i'm wrong. At least i never had to pay for a upgrade so far. Why not buy Emeditor prof and support the company and you get the features you want as well?

I'm pretty sure you have to stick with emeditor free and accept the lack of features or buy the full version. I'm also guessing that feature requests from paying customers have a much greater chance of being implemented.

If, by any chance, you want to little update EmEditor Free, I would suggest only few things (in order by importance) that will be nice for me personally:

1. Option to close program with ESC key (CTRL+W is not great choice).

2. Option to remove toolbar names.

3. Option to remove some of toolbar buttons and "Tools" toolbar.

4. Option to lock toolbars.

Other than that, EmEditor Free is almost perfect for me

Hi!

One question: any idea to update EmEditor FREE with few improvements? Maybe you can put it back on your homepage? Even make it OpenSource?

That can be nice "marketing" for the FULL version ;)

Btw, is it OK to put here links for that free version (including to "portable" version)?
