Download EditPad Lite 7.0.9

JGsoft has released version 7.0.9 of its free text editor EditPad Lite. This program is not for programmers – they could do better EditPad Pro or Notepad++ – but is more of a replacement for the Notepad supplied with Windows. Unlike Notepad, EditPad Lite can have an unlimited number of files open in the same screen, it has no limit on the size of files to open, and the number of undos and redos is unlimited. EditPad Lite 7 is still free, but businesses can now purchase a license too, if there is no need for all extras that the Pro version offers. The following changes and improvements have been made in this release:

Improvements:

• Editor: Right-clicking on the blank space after the end of a selected line now shows the context menu for selected text.
• Installer: Create portable installation without admin rights.

Bug fixes:

• Editor: If a file had more than 9,999 lines then the width of the margin was sometimes inconsistent until you caused all visible lines to be repainted.
• Editor: Opening a file larger than 64K with line numbers turned on by default sometimes caused an access violation error.
• Editor: Right-clicking on blank space inside (rectangular) selections now shows the context menu for selected text.
• Portable: Do not prompt to be the default editor when running a portable installations as portable installs should not touch the host PC.
• Printing failed if the font was not a TrueType font.
• Search|Copy Search Matches: If searching for all the matches took long enough for a progress meter to appear, EditPad failed to close the progress meter after copying the search matches, making further interaction with EditPad impossible.
