when I go to open a file will still open with notepad (the default program).Maybe I misunderstood your issue. How do you open a file? PHP is not associated even with Notepad by default.

Hi, is it possible to assing a shortcut key to a particular external tool? This would be very useful e.g. to select a text and press Ctrl+Alt+P to launch context sensitive help.Yes. Go to Keyboard Map on the Help menu.

I agree with that breakdown/description of the issues with the exception of the fact that, unlike Criss, I still see “Flickering of text when outline guide is enabled” in 7.00.2 RC 1.I know there is a bit of flickering in text, and also in OutlineText tree, but those are not critical problems for most users. I will soon release a minor update, but I will not fix this issue.

I would like to see Snippets allow for blocks of code that can be inserted into any document.It should allow for highlighted text to be dragged and dropped into the Snippets add-in and then a name can be assigned to it.
Now, if you really want to get fancy :-D , I could also use the capability to autofill text contained within the snippet using tags. When the snippet is inserted it scans the text for tags (i.e. {#xxxx#} or something) and then brings up a dialog with all of the tags that need to be filled in.
Once you specify the values for the tags, then it finishes the insert replacing all tags with the values you specified.
If all you can provide is a better mechanism for adding and updating multiple line snippets (drag and drop from selected text) that would be a start.
I agree, but I didn’t make the perfect plug-in. The source code is availalbe at http://www.emeditor.com/modules/mydownloads/singlefile.php?cid=6&lid=125 I left some space for developers to develop the plug-in further.

EmEditor Pro 7.00.1 with installed English spellchecker plugin
downloaded from this site spus102.exeWhen attempting to add a word I get the subject error msg. I have uninstalled EmEditor and the plugin and reinstalled both.
Anyone have a fix or any kind of suggestions on this issue?
TYVM,
Charlie-ps this is a registered product I purchased
-pps using Vista 32 bit Home PremiumThis is because Windows Vista cannot modify dictionary files in Program Files subfolders when the User Account Control in Vista is enabled. You will need to install this plug-in to non-Program Files folder to avoid this error. I will fix this issue in future versions of the Spelling plug-ins. Thanks!

I will have to explore what EmEditor can do then. Sorry if my question about the configurations was not clear. I mean that when I create a new file in C++ or HTML, there is already header code and I wanted to know if there was a way to remove that and just start out with a blank file. Just a suggestion, but it would be nice if the required and optional parameters were shown when using the word complete plugin.In C++ Properties and HTML Properties, select File tab, click “New Files”, and uncheck “Use Template”.

Hi,I am currently evaluating EmEditor Professional 7.0.0.1 and wish to know if any of the following are possible within this great editor:
Is there a way to set up a shortcut to reference the PHP manual? For instance, I click on one of the functions in my code and the manual jumps to the corresponding page.
Can I use an external program or command to run PHP? I want to be able to view the code and any errors in an output window and also have the option to take you right to the line where the error has occurred.
How do you remove the code that is inserted with the different configurations such as C++?
I will primarily be using the editor to code in C++ and PHP.
Thanks.
You can do almost anything with EmEditor. See http://www.emeditor.com/modules/xoopsfaq/index.php?cat_id=8#q68 for examples. You might need a little tweaking though. For instance, you might want to check “Use Output Bar” to redirect standard output to the Output Bar. If compiler errors are dsplayed in the Output bar, you can only double-click on the line to jump to the source code.
I don’t know what you mean by “How do you remove the code that is inserted with the different configurations such as C++?”.

I try Microsoft Notepad.exe.
Microsoft Notepad.exe without problem save modified file on shared NAS disk on Save command.Do you have enough hard disk space on your hard drive and in the remote share?

Just to be a little more descriptive of the problem. I wanted to let you know that I think that there is no problem if you are using EmEditor as Admin, but I don’t have those privileges, just a plain ol’ member of Users.I tried with a Standard User, and there was no problem. When you click “Associate with EmEditor” button on the File tab of Customize dialog box, you will be asked to enter the Administrator’s password. Have you been asked for this password when you click this button?

HiI am a new user of EmEditor. I imported the TCL syntax library into EmEditor. However, it does not reserve the indent of each line.
For example, when I press Tab to indent one line. The next line it goes to the beginning of the line instead of align it with the line above.
Please help. Thanks.
Jackrabbit
On Configuration properties, select General tab, click Tab/Indent button, and check Enable Auto Indent.

Thanks!
Your macro should be very beneficial to all our users. Please post your macro, or email me at [email protected] after zipped. When you post or email your macro, please write a brief explanation so I can use in our library. Thanks!

Microsoft Notepad.exe without problem rewrite file on shared NAS disk on command “Save”.
I cannot reproduce your problem. What error message do you get when you try to Save? Or you cannot select Save command because it is grayed out?
It sounds that the problem is caused by either MS Word or by Windows. I cannot fix that with EmEditor. You might want to remove unnecessary langauge from the Language Options in Control Panel. You might have pressed the shortcut key to switch the language. In this case, you can remove that key from the Language Options in Control Panel.

I suggest add option to use external tool as text filter.1) Pass all / selected text to the stdin of external tool, capture the stdout of external tool, and replace all / selected text with it.
2) Copy all text to a temp file, process the temp file with external tool, and replace all text with content of the temp file.
EmE is unable to undo change if I process the current file directly with external tool, isn’t it?
Thanks for your comments.
(1) I don’t know if you noticed, but you could use $(CurText) in the Arguments field in External Tools Properties.
(2) Thanks for input!
If you process current file, and reload with EmEditor, it will not be able to undo it.

I have a 126MB text file of mostly short lines. I load it in EmEditor 7.00.1, hit Ctrl+A, and then hit Del to delete the text. The program crashes.It sounds that there is not enough space for the Undo buffer. You might want to make sure you have enough disk space for swapping file or temporary files in your primary drive. I will try to reproduce your issue when I have a time. Thanks!

Copy Configuration A to be Configuration B.
Change something in B (e.g. Show Line Numbers).
Select B to be the current configuration. (!)
Select A.
Delete B.
Copy A to be B again.
Select B.
You’ll find the new B does not appear as A, but appears as the old B, as if you didn’t delete it.And a suggestion:
I hope clicking Select button in Define Configurations dialog won’t close the dialog. This will be convenient for deleting/renaming the current configuration.A configuration cannot be deleted when it is in use. I will try to reproduce your issue when I have a time. Thanks!

I generally use EmEditor to edit programs and shell scripts that are also used on old-fashioned Unix terminals, so I generally try to keep my programs and scripts within an 80-character line length.Is there any way to get EmEditor to show a margin guide at a given column, such as column 80 or 132 (a vertical line and/or shaded area to the right of column 80)?
This would be very handy, and is a feature many editors have. If it cannot currently do this, I’d like to request it as an enhancement. :-)
Thanks!
You might want to change the color of “Outside of regions” in the Display tab of configuration properties.

Hello,I have some old projects that are written in classic ASP, using JavaScript scripting language (don’t ask).
I love to work them, using EmEditor, however syntax highlighting gives me hard time sometimes. It seems as the editor can not distinguish what scripting language should be assumed, and colors my ‘strings’ in green, because it thinks it’s a VBScript comment. And that’s just one example.
I think I am missing something here… Perhaps there should be some way to fix this erroneous behaviour? Some setting, where I can write, what Scripting language is associated with ASP?
Thanks!
Is there any options like lang=’JavaScript’ in your code?
Can you please zip your sample ASP code and email it to [email protected]? Thanks!

OK, thanks. I don’t know if I need to add another post but another thing that I noticed was that the Word Count Plug-in didn’t seem to work. I went to enable it and EmEditor grayed it out (I assume this indicates either a missing plug-in or a broken one). I did not dig into it any further than that. Thanks again.You probably did not select any text when you try to use the Word Count plug-in. If you want to count the entire text in the document, select all by pressing CTRL + A, and then select the Word Count plug-in.

Yeah I am, sorry for not mentioning that earlier.No problem at all. I will look into this issue as soon as I come home from my trip. Thanks!

I am currently running version 7.00.1 and the issue is still there. just incase my initial description was not clear enough, these are the steps that I am using to reproduce the issue:Open a new file
Type some text (ie- “qwerty”)
Press enter
Click on line 1 column 80 and type “u”The old behaviour that I am accustomed to is that “u” is on line 1 column 7. the Behaviour that I am seeing is that “u” is at column 80 and there are 73 spaces in between “y” and “u”.
I suspect “Enable Virtual Space” is checked in the General tab of the current Configuration Properties.
