    I was happy for years with the EmEditor Free V1 but now I would like to use the multiple search highlighting available since V4.

    But I hate the new white icon, I want the old ‘brown book’ icon which I saw now for ten years.
    I was able to change the icon back in V4 by means of a ressource editor but I failed with all newer version.

    So I would like to by EmEditor V4 licences. Is this possible?

    Regards,

    Uwe Sieber

    I would be happy to see if you buy new licenses. I am not sure why you cannot change icons in newer versions, but maybe because new executable files are digitally signed. You can still buy Version 4 licenses. In fact, no version designation is necessary when you buy licenses. Just make sure to buy whether you want to buy Professional or Standard. You can use the same registration keys for all versions (4, 5, 6, and 7) as long as the edition (Pro or Standard) is the same (except for cracked or illegal keys). However, I would really recommend you to use the latest version of EmEditor even if you don’t like the icons. For shortcut icons, I believe you can change icons from the Shortcut Properties without using resource editors.

    I read in another thread that a new release of emeditor is being developed as we speak and that we can expect a hex editor in the new version. Is there any information what we can expect of new features in the next release?
    I made some requests and i have seen requests from other as well and would be nice to know if i can expect these feature in the next version of emeditor.

    Thanks in advance

    I don’t want to comment on any features except binary editing because I don’t want to make any promises. You will find what the features are when the next major beta version becomes available.

    When i upgraded to a newer version a while ago (it was still version 6, and i have not yet tested version 7), there were close buttons on each tab, how do i get the close button to be just a single close button and not multiple close buttons, like in 6.04?

    Right-click on tabs, select Customize Tabs from the context menu, click Mouse Options, and select “Right Side of Window” in the Close Button drop-down list. I know this is hard to find, and I might move this to another place in the future.

    Oh, it works now.
    So we need manually run this macro for using this function? Is there any other config settings that Emeditor can automatically detected this just like a normal link?

    Thanks a lot, Yutaka.

    Since highlighting tags can slower the overall speed of EmEditor and since most people do not need to highlight tags, it will not be turned on automatically. However, you can make it on always by selecting Customize on the Macros menu, select the above macro in the My Macros list, check Runs at Events, click Events button, and then click “File Opened” in the Select Events list.

    document.HighlightTag = true;

    When I open a saved search results and run this macro, nothing was changed. The Link still not works.

    My original suggestion was that we can save the searching results(Find in Files) as original format. That means next time we open this file, we still can click on the link and point to that file’s position.

    Such like when we click on this link C:temp.txt:4621 Emeditor will open that file and located to line:4621.

    This should be a pretty useful function, pls advise. :-)

    I didn’t have any problems with this macro. When you run this macro, make sure the search result text is the active document.

    It is not possible currently. I might consider this feature in future versions.

    Hi,
    maybe you could change the following behaviour:
    Let’s suppose I have two files file1.txt and file2.txt. file2.txt is selected and displayed. Meanwhile I’m working with another program that changes both files somehow.
    Now when I return to EmEditor, it will prompt immediately that file2.txt has been changed and whether I want to reload it.
    However, when I select file1.txt, it will take some time (approximately the 5 sec that are set in the configuration for monitoring interval) until the file change is recognized. Wouldn’t it be better, to scan *all* files for changes when EmEditor becomes active? You wouldn’t need to ask for reload until the file is selected.
    Regards

    So exactly how do you want to see EmEditor display the message box? Do you want to see all “file1.txt”, “file2.txt” and “file2.txt” are changed, but you want the prompt to ask the active document “file2.txt” to reload?

    I want the text between two commands/tags to be highlighted.

    I want to highlight everything between two *FONT commands excluding the commands.

    Example: *FONT 3text*FONT 0
    here only “text” should be highlighted. The numbers 3 and 0 could be any number.

    I tried this with lookbehind and lookahead:

    (?<=*FONT ?d+).*?(?=*FONT ?d+)

    Unfortunately lookbehind does not allow a regex but only text, so “(?<=*FONT ?d+)" does not work.

    Any ideas how this could be achived?

    Thanks!

    Unfortunately, the regular expression engine does not support variable length of lookbehind and lookahead. You will need to have the expression fixed length in lookbehind and lookahead can be matched.

    Currently the matching brackets are boldened and with small fonts the matching bracket doesn’t always stand-out clearly. Would it be possible to configure the foreground and background colour for matching brackets, so I could for example set the foreground to red and background of matching brackets set to bright green or some other colours. This would make it much easier to see matching brackets when working with small fonts.

    You can customize the color and style of matching brackets to whatever you would like from the Display tab of Configuration Properties. Select “Matched parentheses/brackets” from the Specify Part list in the Display tab.

    If you have more than two groups, you might need this macro to jump to another group.


    wnds = shell.windows;
    nMax = wnds.Count;
    for( i = nMax; i > 0; i-- ){
    wnd = wnds.Item( i );
    if( wnd && wnd.className == "EmEditorMainFrame3" ){
    wnd.SetForeground();
    break;
    }
    }

    You will have to select text where you want to count words. If you want to count words in the entire document, select all (CTRL + A) first.

    hello

    I know that emeditor is a text editor and not a word processor, but I wonder if in next versions emeditor support rich text

    by rich text, I mean bold, underlined, etc text, columns and all the stuff that can be done in ms office

    maybe this enriched version would be optional for those that want emeditor simple and lite

    thanks

    You can highlight any particular words that match to any criteria at all occurrences, and that’s all EmEditor can do. EmEditor will not highlight like word processors. I don’t think EmEditor will compete with word processors anytime in future, and I will keep it that way to avoid any bloated consequence.

    Thanks for your so quickly reply.
    For the first one, you will add this feature(save the search results link and discorery the link with row number) as windows link “file://” ?

    For the second one, is there any plugin support RTF export and copy?

    (1) Use this macro:


    document.HighlightTag = true;

    (2) I don’t know any plug-in that can convert EmEditor text to RTF directly. You can use the plug-in to convert to HTML, and then copy to the Clipboard within a web browser, and paste to WordPad.

    Hey,
    1) The file localtion link can be save. when we do a search in a folder, there will be a link for each results, however when you save this results and reopen it, the link function will gone. I suggest to keep this can be saved.
    For example: C:temp.txt:7328 or this was surrounded by some other symbols:
    a) (C:temp.txt:7328);
    b) FileLoc://C:temp.txt:7328;

    This will be a great useful feature and the file localtion link can be an stardard just like http://.

    2) Is that possible to add some core feature for export(copy) file style as a RTF or a HTML? I see we can found a plugin to export as a HTML, however if it’s a core function, more people will like it and use it.

    Please advise :lol:

    1) Use file://.

    2) I don’t want to make the HTLM export feature as a core feature because I don’t want to make the EmEditor core bloated. Use the plug-in.

    I found EMEditor to be very useful in editing very large PHP statistical database sites. For different clients I have to go in and change Form Field descriptions.
    I found that I can ride a very large macro in JavaScript.. it works very well except when its fails. “Some of the descriptions to be changed are simply not in the file”
    I have put in an alert to stop on such failures. However clicking on cancel does not stop the macro from running…
    I need some way to prompt in the middle of a macro to continue, Y/N, and with a response of “N” stop execution..

    You can add
    try { … } catch(e) { … }
    statement to catch most errors, and use Quit() method to stop your macro. For instance:


    try {

    catch(e)

    Hi.

    Is it possible to change the default behaviour of Next/Previous Document function (Ctrl-Tab/Ctrl-Shift-Tab or Ctrl-F6/Ctrl-Shift-F6) to STRAIGHT left-to-right/right-to-left switching of open document tabs?

    I’d like tab switching work in STRAIGHT order. Let me explain. Suppose I’ve opened three documents – 1.txt, 2.txt and 3.txt. Active document is 1.txt. Pressing Ctrl-Tab twice will bring me back to 1.txt, which I’m totally unhappy with and I’d expect it to be 3.txt, which is 2 steps from 1.txt.

    I’d like straight order of tab switching since default behaviour makes it virtually impossible to switch (using keyboard) between 3 or more open documents. Therefore, one has to use a mouse just for switching the tabs! That’s not a good feature for an established professional development tool, which EmEditor certainly is.

    I’m using EmEditor Professional version 7.00.1 under Vista…

    Go to Customize on the Tools menu, click Window tab, and uncheck “Switch to Last Used Document for Next Document Command”.

    To trim all HTML tags, you can find:

    and replace with blank (with Use Regular Expressions checked).

    I don’t know how you can do to trim tags except URLs. I might consider that in future HTMLBar plug-in.

    Changed by Another Program: Prompt.
    Monitor Interval: 5.

    I tested further and found this problem happened only when the content of the file(s) was changed by McAfee VirusScan itself. If I use Notepad2 to change the content of the file(s), EmEditor will prompt. But if the content of the same file(s) is changed by McAfee VirusScan, EmEditor will never know, no matter how long I wait.

    When McAfee VirusScan modified the file, is the time stamp also changed? If the time stamp is not changed, EmEditor cannot detect the change.

    BWT, sorry for late answer. I haven’t received any notification by e-mail (I didn’t expect the default behavior is to notify by PM, not an e-mail).

    Well, that is related to text draw engine in Windows. You can google “Uniscribe” to find about it more.

I can make a macro to delete those lines, but I have to open each file separately and run the macro (to much work). So is it possible to open 20 files (the more the better!) and run the same macro for all?

    Yes! Here is the code:


    docs = new Enumerator( editor.Documents );

    doc = docs.item();
    doc.Activate();
