Hello Maria,
Thanks for trying EmEditor beta version!
You can disable the context menu shortcuts by clearing the “Add a shortcut to the Context Menu on Explorer” check box in the More Shortcuts dialog (Tools > Customize > Shortcuts > More Shortcuts button). However, this will also disable “EmEditor” menu item when you right-click on normal files. They cannot be disabled separately. Is this something you want to do (disabling separately)?
Hello dw7832 and betaspin,
Thanks for trying out the new beta version!
I am sorry that some dictionaries didn’t work on beta 1. I reproduce the problem with bg_BG.dic and bg_BG.aff, and I fixed this problem this morning. However, I couldn’t reproduce the problem with a Dutch dictionary. Possibly I was testing with a different dictionary, but please test again when the next beta is released as I made some code changes and possibly fixed the other problem too.
If you have any feature requests, please post your requests here, and they are possibly considered for inclusion in future versions.
I thought about traditional spelling functions, but there was nothing like that in Mozilla FireFox, and then I thought it might not be necessary any more. I will think about again if you still need the traditional spelling functions.
Thanks for your reply. Yes, that might have caused the problem. I suggest you can clear ALT+CTRL+N shortcut from the EmEditor tray icon as I explain earlier. Thanks again!
EmEditor Tray Icon’s menu opens when a user presses CTRL + ALT + N. To disable this behavior, you can right-click on the Tray Icon, select Customize, and then clear the “Shortcut Key to Simulate Left Mouse Button” text box.
I apologize for any inconveniences this might have caused you even though you shouldn’t see the menu if you press only an N key (without CTRL or ALT).
Please don’t hesitate to ask me if you have further questions. Thank you.
The return method can be display in the Status Bar if you check the “Return Method” check box in the Status Bar.
Please let me know if you have further questions. Thanks!
Thanks for using EmEditor!
You might want to use the “Search” plug-in to display the result list of search in the Custom Bar. “Find in Files” can also list the result in the Output Bar, and you can specify a single file as the path to find files in.
Please let me know if you have further questions.
You are welcome! And thank you for your suggestions. I will consider those suggestions on future versions.
Please don’t hesitate to let me know if you have further inputs about EmEditor.If you use a template file, the encoding of the template file should match with the information you enter in the New File Details dialog box (Tools menu > Configuration Properties > New Files button). Is it possible for you to adjust these options to match with the template file encoding?
Please don’t hesitate to ask me if you have further questions. Thank you.
I am very sorry that you had such a bad experience with EmEditor. Reliability and robustness are our top priority, and no features are more important than reliability and robustness. I will try to reproduce your issue and will fix it as soon as possible.
If you want to create a very large file from scratch, by gradually increasing the size by adding a block of text, you might want to save the file at the point it reaches more than 300MB, and then reload the file and then you can continue your work more safely. 300MB is the default minimum size for EmEditor to use a temporary file to manage a very large file. Even if you reload the file, and if it still crashes, then you might need to adjust this size. This threshold size can be adjusted in the Advanced tab of the Customize dialog box. If EmEditor still crashes, then you might need to enter a smaller number, like 100MB. Then next time you open that large file (>100MB), EmEditor shouldn’t crash because it will open the file using a temporary file and will not rely only on the virtual memory.
Nevertheless, EmEditor shouldn’t crash because of no memory situation, but it should display a dialog box to allow you to cancel the task gracefully. I sincerely apologize for this issue, and will try to fix this issue as soon as possible. I do appreciate your inputs. If you have further questions or comments, please don’t hesitate to contact me. Thanks again.
I don’t know why you have this issue. Maybe another application interferes EmEditor. Can you try on another PC if possible?
I am sorry that EmEditor froze. I will try to reproduce this issue.
When you install Spelling (U.S. English) plug-in, instead of double-clicking the installer in Explorer, please make sure to click the right mouse button on the file, and select “Run as Administrator” in the context menu.
Thank you for using EmEditor!
There was a related bug with several minor versions ago (v9.0x or v9.1x), so if this issue happend several minor versions ago, I believe it was fixed. If you don’t have any issues with newest version (v9.14 or 9.15), the issue shouldn’t happen again. However, if you still have the issue with the latest version, please don’t hesitate to ask me again. Thank you for posting your issues.
I tried to reproduce your issue with EmEditor 9.14 and fresh Windows on Virtual PC, but I could not reproduce your issue. What I did was:
1. I installed EmEditor Professional 9.14 on fresh Windows XP2 on Virtual PC.
2. Run EmEditor, select Tools menu > Select Configuration > Define Configurations.
3. Select SQL and click “Copy” button to create “SQL2” configuration.
4. Double-click SQL2 to open SQL2 properties, and then click “Highlight (1)” tab.
5. Click “Add” button to add a new keyword called “123”.
6. Click “Export” button to export keywords, named as “test.esy”.
6. Close all dialog boxes, and open test.esy. I saw all SQL keywords plus “123”.If my procedure is different from yours, please advise me. I want to reproduce your issue and fix that problem. Thank you.
I reproduced this issue. It will be fixed in the next minor version. I am very sorry about this bug.
You are right. I tried to adjust the width of the toolbar buttons for close buttons and the different font for bold type, etc, but it can still happen sometimes especially when you use the button style for the Tab Bar. I might try to adjust that again. Thank you.
I am not exactly sure what you mean. Can you describe the procedure you tried, step by step, please? I really want to reproduce your issue, and fix any bugs you encountered. Thank you.
For the current configuration, please make sure “Quote Character” is set to “>” in the General tab of configuration properties. If this is not set, you won’t see the “>” mark when you use CTRL + Q.
Please check “Regular Expressions can Match new line characters” check box and enter 1 or more in the “Additional Lines to Search for Regular Expressions” text box in the Search tab of Customize dialog box.
Yes and no. Language syntax is same. External objects Excel use might be the same as EmEditor, like “Scripting.FileSystemObject” object to manipulate files and folders in the PC. However, internal object models are not same. So you will need to refer to EmEditor macro reference to write macros for EmEditor, and Excel help to write macros for Excel. I hope this answers your question. Please let me know if you have further questions.
> could some commands output show in the output box such as dos command?
Beginning of v9, you can use the Output Bar for DOS command. By default, the External Tool includes Command Prompt tool. In the Command Prompt Properties, check “Use Output Bar”, and then you will see the command prompt box appears as the Output Bar. It is not exactly the same as Command Prompt window, so for example, it doesn’t support UP and DOWN arrows like the real Command Prompt window, and you will need to close the Output Bar manually when you finish using it (EXIT command will not close the Output Bar automatically).
> I know there is a function to position the plugin bar on the left,right,top bottom, but i find there is still no enough space to fill up plugins. I suggest it can increase the plugin position for example left up,left bottom.
I didn’t try to add the feature to stack multiple Custom Bars to one side. This will cause much increase of the file size. However, in the future, I might consider it again.
> At last, i find the new version is not compatible with vi plugin. The emeditor always close accidently
I assume you are talking about EmVi plug-in. I saw the author of this plugin release newer versions http://emvi.tistory.com/ . You might want to try the newest version of EmVi plugin if you haven’t. I will try it by myself when I have a time. Thank you!
You cannot just hide unimportant lines, unfortunately, but you can still extract lines that contain a specified string, and then view it as a separate document. Please try this macro:

If you still have further questions, please let me know.
Do you want to “view” or “edit”? You can do all sort of replacements using regular expressions. That is “edit”. If you just want to view your changes, you can, of course, edit the file, and then close EmEditor without saving the file. In this way, you are not going to modify the original file, but you can still hide unimportant parts of the file.
To show you how to replace text using regular expressions, please show me an example file and how you want to change it to. Please let me know if you have further questions. Thanks!
