Today, we are releasing EmEditor v17.0.0.

Updates from v16.9.3 include:

New General Features

• Greatly improved the EmEditor launch speed by optimizing the code to save settings (especially for the portable versions or when many macros are registered to My Macros). See the test results table below.

Test results:

* 64-bit portable version (using INI files), 119 macros registered to My Macros, 9 plug-ins, 20 recently used files, 20 recently used folders, 10 recently used fonts. Measured the duration of the program initialization, Windows 10 (64-bit) Core i7-4790 16GB RAM.

• When the Save Cursor Position and Bookmarks check box is set in the History page of the Customize dialog box, previous versions saved cursor positions and bookmarks only for recently used files. The new version saves the information up to specified days (maximum 30,000 days). Moreover, the bookmarks can be indefinitely remembered by the option.
• If a read-only file is detected during Replace in Files, the new version displays a warning message in the Output Bar.
• The new version shows the margin (number of characters) in the tooltips when the mouse pointer hovers over the Wrap by Characters, Wrap by Window or Wrap by Page buttons in the toolbar.

New Options

• Moved the Save Cursor Position and Bookmarks check box from the File page to the History page of the Customize dialog box.
• Added the Number of Recent Searches text box, Number of Days to Save text box, and Never Clear Bookmarks check box to the History page of the Customize dialog box.
• Added the Clear History dialog box, which will be displayed when the Clear History button is clicked in the History page of the Customize dialog box.
• Added the Use Default Keywords check box to the Highlight (1) page of configuration properties.
• Added the Synchronize History with Find/Replace Dialog Boxes check box to the Search page of the Customize dialog box.
• Added the Synchronize with Find command to the menu displayed when the > button by the Replace with drop-down list is clicked in the Replace dialog box.
• Added the Drop-down List Font drop-down list to Toolbars dialog box.

New Commands

• Delete Old Settings

Plug-in New Features

• Added the Click to run a macro check box and Macro File Filter text box to the Explorer plug-in Properties, and the Explorer plug-in allows you to click a macro file to run the macro instead of editing the macro.
• Added the Run this Macro with EmEditor command to the context menu displayed in the Explorer plug-in custom bar.

Macro New Features

• Added the ExecuteMacro method and RegisteredName property to the Editor object.
• Added the SerialToLogical, LogicalToSerial, LogicalToView, and ViewToLogical methods to the Document object.
• Added the Point object.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a certain bug related to the Delete Duplicate Lines command.
• Fixed the bug where the Adjust Separator Positions (Whole Document) command was grayed out when a read-only file is opened.
• Fixed the bug where the EE_VIEW_TO_LOGICAL message did not work correctly on the 64-bit version.
• Fixed the bug where the background color of the current line might have become incorrect when the Move Line Up or Move Line Down command was used.

Please see EmEditor v17.0 New Features for details.

Remarks

When this version is first launched, the old settings will be converted to new settings. The old settings will remain, but selecting the Delete Old Settings command will clear them at anytime. In rare cases, this version might not be compatible with a few old plug-ins and macros. Specifically, plug-ins and macros that depend on the registry information listed in the Technical Information below might not work anymore. Please verify if this version works with your plug-ins and macros, and let us know if there are any issues at the forum or by emails so that we can resolve those issues. If you are using Aye Wong’s MacroPopupMenu2, please download and run a new macro called PopupMacros.jsee. If you are using a macro to set the current macro temporarily, please rewrite it by using the new ExecuteMacro method (refer to the PopupMacros.jsee macro as a sample).

  %PROGRAMDATA%\Emurasoft\EmEditor\data, i.e.
  C:\ProgramData\Emurasoft\EmEditor\data
• If a portable version of EmEditor is used (using INI files):
  “data” subfolder of the EmEditor installed folder, i.e.
  X:\…\EmEditor\data

It is recommended to download and update the above file periodically since the database is updated frequently.
