I agree, it’s hard to find a good text editor and i’m using emeditor and textpad as well. I think i tried them all, but i never found anyone that can compare to these two. Unfortuantly they both miss some features i use so still have to keep both. The development of textpad is almost standing still so i’m hoping for emeditor. I also like that those two keep the focus on the text editor part and does not include everything which doesn’t belong in a text editor just to brag about the features.

I don’t know what kind of option you have when using prevx since i don’t use it myself, but most likely you have the option to exclude some files and then you can exclude the emeditor files that is detected as a trojan. It is also a good idea to contact prevx and report the false positive (assuming the files is not infected which is most likey the case). When prevx fixed the problem you could remove the exclusion again. If the file(s) is actually infected you should scan your computer to make sure other files is not infected as well and could be a good idea to use more then one scanner. Then you could download a fresh copy of emeditor and reinstall when you are sure the threat is removed.

There is nothing much the developer of emeditor can do about this if it’s a false positive or if it’s actually infected. If it’s a false positive the developers of prevx have to fix this problem and if the computer is infected you have to use some software to remove the infection.

If added then please make it optional to show.

I’ve played around with the source code, and succeeded to optimize the Replace function. The next minor version (7.00.7) will become much faster than previous versions (about 5X faster when ignoring case, and 2X faster when matching case in my test).

Nice work. Even if the current version is working great it’s always nice when it’s enhanced further.

Thanks

I did a test on the same file, but with 1129344 entries to replace and as you said in this case emeditor is faster without any doubt…..especially when “Match case” is checked.

I don’t know if textpad use ANSI comparison or not, but if that is the case i guess it can make a difference as well as you also said.

In any case i don’t find the speed to be a problem for either of them so it was never mean’t as a complaint…..just an observation.

I’m a textpad and emeditor user as well so i found this a bit interesting and did some testing on my computer as well which is a laptop with 2.4GHz Core Duo (T7700) with 2gb RAM running English Windows Vista SP1 (32-bit). Regional settings and keyboard is set to Norwegian.

Info about the file:
Filesize: 113mb
Lines: 2183617
10608 entries to replace

Emeditor 7.00.5:
Open file: 4.9 sec
No case match: 20 sec
Case match: 3.5 sec
(Everything else unchecked)

Textpad 5.2:
Open file: 1.1 sec
No case match: 1.5 sec
Case match: 1.1 sec
(Text and Active documents selected and everything else unchecked.)

So my results is the same as thylocene where textpad is much faster for this operation. Maybe the dialogbox that show the progress using emeditor is the reason why textpad is so much faster since textpad does not show the progress like that?

I’m aware of lack of unicode support using textpad and while emeditor is able to open files with unlimited size textpad is very limited…..that is a couple of the reasons why i need two text editors.

Thanks for the tip. I never been happy with the highlighting of URLs either and didn’t know about the transparent option which seems to solve this issue.

Here is some info from Microsoft about unicode support under Windows 9x and me:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/210341
http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/handson/dev/mslu_announce.mspx

Just curious where did you read that emeditor fully support unicode under Windows 98? I cannot find that information…

Then I really hope the option to customize word delimiters will be included in the next release, but i guess i just have to wait and see. I also hope other requests related to text editing from users will be considered in the next release and not forgotton because of the binary editing.

Try this link: http://www.emeditor.com/pub/emed7003epx.msi
I guess the page is being updated now so maybe that is the reason why it says the newest version is 7.00.3, but the download link is for 7.00.2.

[gan]

Seems like 7.00.3 is released now which is probably the reason why rc1 is no longer available. Choose download from the top menu and you will find 7.00.3.

[gan]

I already done several changes to the html toolbar so i could easily make some changes for you as well. If you want to i can use the original sourcecode and add

[gan]

Sure i can take a look at the macros, but i was really looking for a workaround to be able to setup the word delimiters. I’ll guess i have to use a macro until this feature is available in emeditor. Thanks for your help.

[gan]

This is not a big issue, but would be nice to be able to do this using the gui with CTRL-N in a future release of emeditor.

[gan]

I managed to download the files without any problems. No 404 here.

[gan]

You could do like i do. I don’t show/use the Macros Toolbar and then i created a new toolbar where i add the macros i want to be shown on my toolbar. That way i only show a few macros on the new toolbar i created, but all of them is listed under “My Macros” and that way i can add a shortcut to all of my macros even if i don’t have them on my toolbar. The result will be the same only that you don’t use the “Macros Toolbar” and create your own instead where you add the macros you want to be shown. You could add the macros to an existing toolbar (like the default “Toolbar 1”) as well of course instead of creating a new one .

I believe this is the same question i asked in this forum and you can read the answer here:
http://www.emeditor.com/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=517&forum=2

It’s not configurable at the moment, but hopefully it will be added soon.

Hi, current word delimiters when double-clicking are not customizable. I will take this one of feature enhancement in future versions. And you are right, you cannot tile or cascade within one group. You will have to create a new group to do this. An easiest way is to select “New Horizontal Gruop” or “New Vertical Group” command in the Window menu or in the tab menu. There used to be a synchronized scrolling plug-in created by a user, but I am not sure if it still works. I might create a new plug-in for this purpose, or add this feature in future versions. Thanks!

Thank you for your prompt reply Yutaka. I’ll hope the customizable word delimiters is something that will be included in the close future. I’ll see if i find the synchronized scrolling plug-in, but it’s not something i use a lot so not a big problem.

I also got one other question. It seems like it’s not possible to add the “Save as” button to the toolbar. Is this correct or is it only me that cannot find out how to do this? I use the trial of version 7.00.

Thanks in advance
