Download RJ TextEd 12.80
Version 12.80 of RJ TextEd has been released. This free Swedish-made text editor has several features, which are especially interesting for software and web developers, such as syntax highlighting, autocompletion, extensive selection and sorting options and an embedded (s)ftp client. The program is being developed for Windows, but can also be used under Linux via Wine. The changelog of the past few versions can be found below.
Version 12.80
Updated program files
Re-compiled all files using the latest Delphi version. All files are now Windows XP compatible (again). Which means I don’t need to have separate install scripts for Windows XP anymore.
Install scripts (Windows XP)
All executable files have been compiled using the latest Delphi version. There is no longer any need to use separate installers for Windows XP.
All install scripts can now be used on Windows XP .. Windows 10.
Reload current document
Added support for remote files. If the current document has been altered you are presented with a save prompt, before the remote file is downloaded.
(S)FTP Save As
You can use this feature to save the current document to a remote server. It lets you connect to a remote server, browse the remote folders and save the file.
I made several improvements in this version.
Install script
Made some changes to the install script to fix issues when using several Windows user accounts.
Document links (URL:s)
Links inside a document can no longer be opened with Ctrl+MouseClick. Instead, use the document context menu to open the link.
This was changed to enable multiple selections and multiple editing on web links inside the document.
misc
- Visual changes in recent file list and fixed a few issues.
- Visual changes in navigation history list.
- Warn if file has been deleted on disk now has “Yes to all”, and “No to all” buttons.
Fixed
- Send bug report issue.
- Navigation history issues.
- Column copy/paste issues.
- Warn if file on drive has been deleted.
- Import diff patch file issue.
- Save diff patch file extension problem.
- A few open/save dialogs in Windows XP.
Version 12.71
Update function
The update window is now fashionless so you can place it in the background, or minimize it, while it’s downloading the new version.
The update window will be moved to the front and inform you when the update is ready for installation.
FTP/SFTP
Changed the connect timeout values to 15 seconds. If the connection times out a message is displayed.
Save As (Remote)
The menu item “File / FTP / Save As (Remote)” will now open a connect window, to allow a remote connection. And a file save dialog window for browsing the remote site and add a file name.
This works with both FTP and SFTP.
Navigation history
Navigation history should handle remote files now. Even if you have closed them.
CSS highlighter
Made some minor changes to the CSS syntax file which affect the highlighting.
Fixed
- CSS highlighter issues.
- Exit error when option “Close to hibernate” is used.
- Edit macro issue.
- Folder option menu issue in search bar.
- Code fold issue inside ini files when wordwrap is on.
Version 12.70
Shell Extension (Explorer context menu)
Wrote a new shell extension in Delphi (instead of C++). It’s easier to update, builds into a smaller dll file and the menu image looks better.
portable version
The portable version is now only available as an install script. The script unpack and copy (or update) the files in the given location.
Settings and used data is not overwritten. And nothing is written to the registry.
The auto update procedure is simpler as well. Just press the “Update” button and the update script is executed after download.
Menu and toolbar image settings
Images used in menus and toolbars are now handled in options (Style and Fonts section).
Any image list you create yourself must end with a size eg 16×16.bin. If a size is not found the 16×16 image list is used and images are scaled. Eg if the program needs the 32×32 images, but are not found.
By default there are now two image lists to choose from.
- Standard images. These have been in use for some time now.
- Pure flat images. These are new and may look better when using a dark theme.
New menu and toolbar images
Added new image lists in the sizes 16×16, 20×20, 24×24, 32×32 and 48×48. The new image list is called “Pure_Flat_Toolbar” and can be set in options (Style and Fonts section).
The new images looks better when using a dark theme. But you may like them even without a theme.
Find/Replace
Underscore should be treated as a word character and dash (-) as a word separator when searching for whole words only.
Document context menu
If you right click on a web link in the document, the context menu will contain a menu item to allow you to open the link in your default browser.
misc
- Improved RegEx search speed (Find Next/Previous).
- Improvements to text diff mode when using multiple tab rows.
- Some visual changes in the search panel.
- Several minor changes throughout the program.
- A few code optimizations to speed functions up.
Fixed
- FTP download using file commander.
- Minor changes to FTP upload that should make it more reliable.
- Issue with command line option /COMPARE.
- Double click on tool output in message panel.
- Changes to prevent “Cannot access clipboard” errors.
- Search issues in Text clips panel.
- Refresh after replace all.
- Possible abbreviation issues.
- Ctrl+leftmouse URL click issue.
- Modified by external program issue.
- A great number of minor issues.
