Download EditPad Pro 7.0.9

JGsoft has not only updated its free text editor EditPad Lite, a new version of EditPad Pro has also been released. While EditPad Lite is intended as a replacement for Notepad, EditPad Pro is more intended for programmers. For example, there is a spelling checker that takes syntax coloring into account and a hex editor, a file-compare option, a bookmark option and an embedded ftp client. A complete overview of the extra options compared to the Lite version can be found on this page are being found. In version 7.0.9 the following changes and improvements have been made:

Improvements:

• Edit|Insert Date and Time|Other Date and Time Format: When recording this command as part of a macro, the macro now also records the date and time format. When playing back the macro the current date and time will be inserted using the recorded format rather than prompting for the date and time format again.
• 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.
• Editor: The cursor was sometimes positioned incorrectly while typing on a line that mixes bold and plain text and the font is not strictly monospaced (bold text is wider than plain text) (7.0.7 and 7.0.8 only).
• File Types: VB form files now get all Subs and Functions folded by the file navigation scheme, rather than just Private Subs.
• FTP: Opening a file via FTP, disconnecting the server, and then trying to save that file failed with an access violation error.
• FTP: Opening a project containing files opened from an FTP server in a folder that hadn’t been retrieved yet and wasn’t stored in EditPad’s FTP cache failed silently; the file wasn’t uploaded and continued to be marked as having unsaved changes.
• FTP: Opening a project containing files opened from an FTP server to which you weren’t connected did not use the previously remembered encryption method for that server.
• FTP: Selecting a server from the drop-down list on the connection window, closing the connection window (OK or Cancel), and then opening the connection window again replaced the server’s hostname with its description.
• Mark: Searching and replacing all matches and then undoing the search-and-replace removed all bookmarks from the file.
• 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.
• Spell checker: Portable installs now always save downloaded spell check dictionaries to folder from which EditPad Pro is run. If there are no spell check dictionaries in that folder, portable installs will still use dictionaries that are installed on the host PC. But they will no longer save dictionaries on the host PC in that situation.
