Hallo
I decided to release a preview of the generic text editor i have been working on called RedyPad. The text editor library has MANY improvements and bug fixes compared to the one in the last version of RedyCode. I haven't released the source code yet, but it will be included with the next RedyCode release. Actually, the next version of RedyCode will be rewritten based on RedyPad's source.
- Opening multiple files at the same time in tabs
- Syntax highlighting (currently for Euphoria source only)
- Smart indentation when pressing Enter on an indented line
- Indent/unindent selected lines (Tab/Shift+Tab)
- Word Wrap
- Customizeable toolbars
- Remembers window positions
- Portable (no installation needed, just make sure RedyPad is able to write to the folder it is in, so it can save to a config file).
This is a preview version, i'm sure there are still bugs, so don't try to edit important files without a backup copy!
You may download the exe here: http://redy-project.org/files/RedyPad_0.5_preview.zip.
First impression is, WOW looks really great and is fast enough to work with. (tried it with a win32lib.ew about 800kb)
Okay, i still do not like the cursors, and i think some tooltips would be nice .
Resizing the Window triggers some strange actions, even on tinewg (270kb) it took at least 10-30 seconds until the watch disappear also i can scroll the text.
This get even worse if i open more than 1 tab. (Talking about filesize around 100kb)
But again, great job!
