Download EditPad Lite 7.2.0

Spread the love

JGsoft has released version 7.2.0 of its free text editor EditPad Lite. This program is not intended for programmers, who should use EditPad Pro or Notepad++, but is more 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:

New features:

  • Preferences|Editor: Copy active line when nothing is selected.

Improvements:

  • Deleting (large) rectangular selections is now much faster.
  • Edit|Copy should not do anything when the cursor is on a blank line and nothing is selected.
  • File|Save As should close the file that is being overwritten to prevent the same file being open in two tabs.
  • Forum: Double-clicking an editpad: link within EditPad should open the link directly in EditPad’s forum rather than using the system for web URLs, which may be configured to launch a specific browser.
  • Windows 8: Uninstall shortcut is no longer pinned to the start screen by the installer (but it won’t unpin any shortcuts that were previously pinned).

Bug fixes:

  • Edit|Cut Append and Edit|Copy Append failed with an access violation if the clipboard contained an empty string (as opposed to the clipboard being genuinely empty). EditPad itself will never put an empty string onto the clipboard.
  • Extra|Delete Duplicate Lines fails to delete the 3rd duplicate in blocks of 3 or more duplicate lines when using the “adjacent lines only” option.
  • Extra|Delete Duplicate Lines fails when using the “selection only” option and the first line in the file is not selected (7.1.2 only).
  • Print: Print preview was not rendered correctly on high DPI systems.
  • Print: Selecting a different color palette in the print preview changes the color palette in the editor too, instead of only applying the palette to the print preview.
  • Search|Copy Matches: Copying the matches of a regex that only finds zero-length matches causes an access violation when trying to paste the blank data that was copied to the clipboard; now Copy Matches will not alter the clipboard if all matches are zero-length.
  • Tabs: Clicking above or below the scroll, list, and close buttons on the tab control should not activate the tab that would appear at that position if the buttons were not present.
  • View|Browser does not work correctly when Firefox is the default browser and the path to the file you’re editing contains spaces (7.1.2 only).
  • Windows 8: Toolbar combo boxes did not properly display their drop-down arrows.
