Updated SciTE installation package (scite-1.49-setup.exe)

My SciTE installation package is updated for SciTE 1.49.  It is now using
the binaries published by Neil yesterday (the second set ;-)).  I also added
the PHP enhancements and FORTRAN API from SciTEExtras to the installer, and
made some further small tweaks to the configuration files.

Information (and download links) are on my website:

Cheers,
Bruce

Re: Updated SciTE installation package (scite-1.49-setup.exe)

Using this release, I may have found a problem.  i changed my fixed font to
FixedSys.  When I open files everything seems fine until I start closing
them with the X on the toolbar.  I close all the files and I still have one
open "1 Untitled", as expected, but I close the "Untitled" one now, and
here's where the weirdness happens, when I load a file now, it defaults to
the "Courier New" font.

How does closing "Untitled" revert the font back to Courier?  Kinda freaky.

Re: Updated SciTE installation package (scite-1.49-setup.exe)

Hmm... I tried changing my font to FixedSys on my system.  It doesn't revert
to Courier New, but it does something else that's also wrong: it reverts to
the proportional font.  This happens regardless which font was used for
monospaced.

It used to be that this happened all the time - whenever you saved the
document it would flip to proportional font.  I contributed code to make
sure it would keep the current monospaced setting.  There must be one place
that I missed.

When you close the last document, SciTE automatically creates a new
"(Untitled)".  It fails to check the monospaced property at that point, and
it can't just carry that over from the previous document, because there is
no other document at that moment.  But after this, whenever you load a new
document, it retains the current monospaced setting from the "(Untitled)"
buffer, so that ends up using the proportional font too!

I will look into it sometime.  It will probably be easy to fix but it's
going to be a low priority.  If I fix it I'll send the patch to Neil, and it
will probably appear in some future release.  Meanwhile in the obscure
sequence of events where this occurs, you can always use CTRL-F11 to toggle
back to monospaced.

Re: Updated SciTE installation package (scite-1.49-setup.exe)

Sorry for the last.  I accidentally clicked send before typing.  Just wanted
to mention that I've sent Neil a patch for this and for another monospace
bug that I spotted during testing.  Neil mentioned to me, the monospace
support has reached into many nooks and crannies, so I'm going to see what I
can do to make this feature easier to maintain.

Has anyone noticed / does anyone care that you can have one buffer set to
monospace, and another set to proportional, and each buffer will remember
its own setting?  This "per-buffer monospace setting" feature was implicated
in the bug Darren found.  If the feature doesn't matter, the code would be
cleaner without it.  Without this feature, everything would be the same as
it is now except that, when you toggle the monospace setting, all of your
buffers would be affected at once.  Would that be a problem?

Regards,
Bruce

Thanks, Dude.  I like all my buffers monospace all the time.

Then, you just set your styles this way. This feature is really meant for 
occasional use, when you enjoy proportional fonts, but sometime need, 
usually for formatting purpose, to see the text in monospaced font.

   And I sent my reply to you to the Scintilla list rather than the SciTE
list :-(

Re: Updated SciTE installation package (scite-1.49-setup.exe)

Hi everybody.

How does he do that, if I may ask? I thought there was a limit of 10
files/tabs per instance - or did I miss something important? I thought
buffers=10 was the maximum possible?

Kind regards

Andreas

Re: Updated SciTE installation package (scite-1.49-setup.exe)

For me, it will be a problem. I switch monospacing on for preformatted
text files and I don't want to have monospacing in other buffers.
