Download RJ TextEd 13.50

Version 13.50 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 for this release looks like this:.

Chrome Preview

Updated all files and components to version 70.0.3538.

GUI components

Updated several GUI components to the newest version.

Text clip and abbreviation synchronization

Added a synchronize sub-menu to the more menu on the text clips panel.

You can synchronize abbreviations and clips manually by selecting “Synchronize now…”. This will sync files to the ones stored in a shared folder. How the local and remote data is updated depends on your settings.

Options are available in two sections. Manual and auto sync settings.

Manual synchronize may be safer to use in a large organization. Especially if more than one user is able to save to the shared folder. You should also be careful with the “Allow delete” option, since it may remove clips you just added.

If all users are allowed to save and everyone disable the settings to delete clips when syncing, nothing will be lost. Everyone is just adding to the shared clips. But that also means you may not be able to remove any clips. After the next sync – they will be added from the shared clips.

Auto synchronize will periodically read from the shared folder and sync your local clips based on your settings. If “Allow save” is enabled – all your clips are then saved to the shared folder.

Text clip panel

Added items are now properly sorted.

Fixed a few issues.

Open and save dialog windows

With newer versions of Windows 10 the light/dark Windows system themes now change the colors used in the open/save dialog windows. To fix some draw issues when using program themes in the editor – I had to make some changes to the style hooks used to retrieve system colors and draw theme elements.

Home tab

Made several design changes to make it easier to navigate using keyboard. I also added check boxes on the recent files tab.

The search on all tabs have been replaced by a fuzzy search. Fuzzy search will find all items with entered letters in correct order. Then order them depending on relevance. The most relevant items at top. Relevance is decided by factors like found string in the file name, most found letters in the file name or path, capitalization…

• You can use left/right arrows to switch between recent list tabs.
• You can use Ctrl+Space to select items and Ctrl+Up/Down to move without selecting.
• You can select several items by clicking on the check boxes, using the mouse.
• You can press the open button to open file(s), which may be easier when using a mouse.

Recent files list

Fussy search is now used to find and list items in order of relevance. If entered character is found in the file name – the items gets a higher priority. The same happens if a matching capital letter is found.

Project panel

You can now drag a document tab to the project tree to add the document to an open project.

The search field now use “fuzzy search”. The match order, in the drop down list, is sorted by relevance.

Mouse click on a found search item should now open the file properly.

scripts

Added two new properties to the “MainApp” object.

– ProjectName : string // Get project name without file extension – ProjectDefaultDir : string // Get default project source folder set in project options
Auto completion

Made some changes and changed several icons.

CSS/LESS/SASS

Made extensive changes and updated the syntax files.

Search Results (find and replace all)

Items are now selected by a single mouse click, instead of a double click. A click on a file now open and selects the first found or replaced item.

Syntax Editor

Added several new toolbar buttons and functions.

• Drop down list to instantly change the icon of the selected items.
• Two type of sorting: normal sort and sort by grouping items by its icon.
• Cut, copy and paste. If you have several syntax files open at once – you can copy and paste between syntax files.
