Hi Yutaka,

did you see my post?
This is still not fixed in 8.02 RC3.

Oliver

I reproduced your issue, and it will be fixed by the next release. Thanks!

[Yutaka Emura]

/fi is used for “Find in Files” command. In this case, you will need to use “rn” instead of “n” for new lines. See http://www.emeditor.com/help/howto/search/search_nl.htm for details. Thanks!

[Yutaka Emura]

How about…

	document.Encoding = eeEncodingUnicode;

	document.Save( filename );

(4.) “Treat the following characters as alphanumeric” option applys only when editing. For instance, when you double-click a word, these characters are treated as a part of the word. However, this setting does not apply to the regular expression w operator nor the Search Only Word option in the Find dialog box. I will clarify the Help description.

(5.) I will add a description the lookbehind patterns must be of fixed length .

Dear ALL

I often call one macro to find something;
In the macro I use regex “画面|移動|名称|…”(a lot of Japanese words), so after finding process is over, the title of the result tab is very long;

I know in the menu “Tools → Customize… → Tab → Width”, I can choose option “Truncate only when longer than specified width” or “Fix to specified width”, but how I can avoid the long tab title through macro?

Please help me;
Thank you very much!

Unfortunately, you cannot change this tab style from macros.

[Yutaka Emura]

I will try to address these issue in the future major version. If v9 beta still has these issues, please let me know. Thank you!

I develop html with emeditor.
Now I open 2 tabs, custom.js and start.html, there a line

in start.html,when i edit custom.js and switch tab to start.html,
then run web previewer to see the result, it’s ok. but i switch the tab to custom.js while the web previewer is runing, there is a box popup,it asks me if i want to download custom.js.
maybe it’s not a bug, i can switch to custom.js tab after i close the web previewer, but I think it’s not convenient.

I see. You can disable the box popup if you go to the WebPreview Properties (Right Click on the WebPreview button > Properties), and then check “Automatically display the Web Preview for selected configurations” and have only HTML is checked. I hope this helps.

I followed he intructions on this forum to replace current notepad with EmEditor V8.0 Pro. I get an error when running notepad from the command prompt, “No localized file found – emedloc.dll”. I tried registering the DLLs, place emeditor folder in the path, but still can not get it to work. Please help thank you :-D

You will need all files in the install directory including the mui folder.

However, I wouldn’t replace Notepad.exe with EmEditor.exe. Just install EmEditor to the default install folder (usually C:Program FilesEmEditor), and change the file type association if necessary from the Tools menu of EmEditor, Customize > File tab and click “Associate with EmEditor”.

I am looking for the word “TEST”, but not if there is ** in front of it. Between ** and TEST may be spaces.

This is for our programming language where ** marks a comment.
So I am looking for TEST which is not commented out.

I will address this issue. Thanks!

v8.02 beta 1 fixes this bug. Please try! Thanks!

Hi, my friend Yutaka. Sorry for the long delay since my last post (very busy time).
I haven’t no time to test the new features of EM…

Just a humble question:
It makes sense the “Accelerate by Discarding Undo Information” with Replace In Files (manual or scripted)? Since it’s already impossible undoing this operation… what about deactivating by default at this to gain the speed? Or, at least, giving that option to the user…

Thank you very much for your attention.

PS: Happy Holidays! :-D

I will make this check box disabled when you Replace in Files without checking “Keep Modified Files Open” check box. Thank you!

Sorry but this behavior is very annoying :-(
Why not remembering the previous selected options? (current session)

Thanks!

Hi, you might want to clear Use Word at Cursor in Find/Replace Dialog Box check box in the Search tab of the Customize dialog box.

Is it possible to configure keyboard shortcuts without using the Keyboard map GUI? The GUI is very slow when the user has lots of custom keyboard mappings and it takes very long to assign them all.

You can use a macro to reassign the keyboard shortcuts. I don’t have this slowness issue, but did you add so many custom keyboard shortcuts? Clearing “All Configurations” button will speed up the process, but the changes will apply only the selected configuration.

Hi,

I couldn’t find anything about this in the help file or the online forums, but I had a questions about the “Tab Left” behavior. It seems that if there is a selection, pressing shift-tab will decrease the indent depth of the selected line(s), but if nothing is currently selected, it will move the cursor left without changing the indent, correct?

Anyway, I wanted to know if there was a way to disable the “tab left” behavior, and always decrease the indent level of the current line or selected line(s) if shift-tab is pressed?

Thanks in advance

Odyssey.

You will need to select a line before you run this command, or write a macro to do this.

There is a good screenshot at https://sourceforge.net/project/screenshots.php?group_id=138498 .

The overlays allow you to immediately see which files have changed in a project, or if there are conflicts, pending deletions, locks, additions, etc.

I also notice that compressed files and folders do not display the compressed color, maybe it’s related, but that isn’t really important itself.

Thanks for information!

No. Check “Quote Marks” in the Display tab of configuration properties.

Right now, using save workspace feature, I can save a group of file paths already opened in tabs. But this is only for 1 set of task.

Say, when I do different tasks, I need to open different set of files. Is it possible to save different set of files to be opened for different projects?

You can use the Projects plug-in to save multiple sets of files. The Projects plug-in is included in EmEditor Professional by default.

I just noticed I seem to have lost my copy of eemacro.dll; I dunno what happened or when it wandered away but I can’t run macros now. I’m using version 8.

How do I get another copy of it?

I don’t know why it happened, but just uninstall the current version, and then install the newest version available in our website.
Thanks!

I have in folder 2 fiels:
“res”
“res.txt”

when I try to open first file, specifing full path to it in “Open file” dialog – EmEditor always open second one.

This is not a bug.

Surrounding the file name with quotation marks (“”) will prevent an extension from being appended. For example, “file” will just be opened as file instead of file.txt.

I installed the Maksim Golovkin’s v.1.00 plugin using the MS Office spellcheck module with EmEditor. Besides the fact that it is much slower than the Emurasoft spellcheck plugin without additional benefits that I can see (it doesn’t use nearly all the features the MS module offers), there is this problem: the plugin DELETES ALL THE TEXT IN THE DOCUMENT when a user clicks the “change” [spelling] button for even just a single word.

Only after I downloaded and used it, did I discover that, on the plugin’s own webpage, another user submitted the same bug report …in 2006!!

Clearly, this plugin has been abandoned — and it’s dangerous to use, because it can wipe out a user’s work.

This leads to another, even more serious matter: Emurasoft needs to monitor the plugins, esp bug reports (wherever on the website they are submitted), and if a developer does not respond to a bug report with workaround or a fix, then Emurasoft should remove the plugin altogether.

In addition, Emurasoft should test & give a stamp of approval to those plugins that pass all tests. This is something that many developers do not (developers of Mozilla Firefox & Macromedia Dreamweaver do this, for example.) I know Emurasoft produces some of its own plugins, but this does not mean you should do nothing about other plugins that you — Emurasoft — distribute via your website.

That’s all.

:-(

I deleted that plug-in. Thanks for reporting that bug. I usually test all plug-ins before I approve or upload to the library. This particular plug-in must have been working for older versions of EmEditor, but does not work for new versions of EmEditor.

Just a few examples:
1. In the Help’s Index enter “Associate” (without the quotes). Then double click on “associate” or “Associate with EmEditor”. Then select one of the entries and click “Display”. The error message is displayed.
2. Enter Auto Save into the Index Search box. Then double click “auto save” or “Auto Save”. Same error message.
3. Enter “Backup”. Double click “Backup”. Help text is displayed with *no* error.

Obviously I haven’t been all the way through the Help topics but it seems the error arises at random – at least I can’t see a pattern but I guesstimate that *approximately* 50\% of the topics generate the error.

I am sure these topics don’t exist in the EmEditor Free Help because these features aren’t available in EmEditor Free. Please download and use EmEditor Professional to use these features. Thank you for clarifying thse issues.

OK. Which topics did you click on when you see the error message? It might be simply because the link is broken.

I saw “Unblock” button on Windows XP, but it may not be the reason in your case. I don’t know why you have this issue. This issue is common if you download the program or Help file from Internet or Email. If you have not tried yet, please install using the original installer downloaded from trusted sites. I also recommend you to try the latest version of EmEditor Professional (currently version 8) since it has so many new features and it runs much faster than previous versions.

Please Test And Fix. As Soon As…

Thanks

I tested both v8.00 and v8.01 in portable device (USB memory, but not Corsair GT). Their opening times are almost the same.

The initial start is always longer than the second time because it needs to save the initial settings to INI files.
Here are my test results:

v8.00
First start: 36.7 seconds.
Second start: 3.8 seconds

v8.01
First start: 37.3 seconds.
Second start: 3.8 seconds

Did you try the default settings (meaning just copy from the Zip files, and then measure the second launch time)?

I’m using the free EmEditor 6.00.4 on Win XP Pro SP3. Sometimes, when I click Help and choose a topic I get the Help text. Other times I get an error message:

This program cannot display the webpage

Most likely causes:
You are not connected to the Internet.
The website is encountering problems.
There might be a typing error in the address.

What you can try:
Check your Internet connection. Try visiting another website to make sure you are connected.

Retype the address.

Go back to the previous page.

=== end error message ====

I always get the same result for the same topic; in other words Help is always available for some topics and never available for others.

Whay is happening, please?

EmEditor Free is not supported but I will answer to this question because this is a common question.
In Explorer of Windows, if you display the Properties of the Help file (emeditor.chm) in the EmEditor installed folder, you should see Unclock button. Press this button.

I’m using version 6 of emeditor.

I understand there’s a backup feature that I can use. When I select backup (Properties for current configuration > Backup) and select “Save backups to backup folder” and “Rename if same file name exists”, I’d like to know the frequency of backup, that is, how often or when is the backup done.

So far I can’t find any particular pattern when backup is saved to the folder. Sometimes when I change tabs, the file is saved (and renamed) to the folder, but sometimes this is NOT happening.

I’ve searched the FAQ and help and so on, but I can’t find an answer to this very basic question. All they do is tell me what the buttons do, without telling me the more important info: under what circumstances are new backups created.

Could you please enlighten me emeditor’s approach to doing auto backup?

Thanks.

I think you are looking for Auto Save tab intead of Backup. By the way, I don’t know why you are still using Version 6 of EmEditor. The upgrades to Version 8 are free for all EmEditor Professional users!
