Re: XyScript v0.1.1



Those are wonderful additions to an already-wonderful editor!  In fact, an editor without peer, as far as I can tell.

Thanks, Carl!

XyScript v0.1.1 is released. As before, the download links are here:

I suggest that you back up your personal configuration files before unzipping the new binary.

In addition to assorted bug fixes, this version includes the following new features:

- Support for HTML preview/print-to-PDF, including rendering of raw HTML code in Markdown files

- Support for key-name annotations in KBD files and a new command (KBDDOC) that adds this documentation to any KBD file

- A clone of the Notepad++ autosave-and-restore option to automatically save all open files (including modified and untitled) on quit, close or crash and restore the session on startup (SESSION on|off)

- A GREP search facility, accessible from both the CMline and a dialog, with point-and-shoot access to files in the results listing

- An option to match case (lower|UPPER|Title) in search-and-replace operations (Find dialog and new switch /K for the CHange family of commands)

- Commands that operate on a file now work in point-and-shoot mode against directory listings

- A DIRSET command to set default DIR command switches

- Settings to set line wrap (WRAP on|off) and hanging indent (WRAPHANG)

- Case-sensitive auto-replace: equ -> equilibrium, Equ -> Equilibrium, and EQU -> EQUILIBRIUM

- REOPEN command expanded to support `REOPEN n`, to reopen the first n files in the closed-file list

- A "Writer's View" that minimizes distractions by hiding all
- A command to add colorful emphasis to all instances of a word or phrase in the current document (EMPH word|phrase, EMPH/R matches regular expressions; cancel with a bare EMPH) -- a different way of searching through a file

- HTML syntax highlighting

- Enhanced XPL (XyScript) syntax highlighting

- Improved navigation in big files

- Improved error trapping in email commands

- XPL enhancements including:

-- A suite of string-classification functions: ISDEC, ISHEX, ISALPHA, ISALNUM, ISUPPER, ISLOWER, ISTITLE, ISSPACE, ISPRINT, ISPUNCT, ISASCII, ISUTF8, ISINT, and ISFLOAT

-- A suite of date-arithmetic functions: DATE2JDN, JDN2DATE, DOW, DATEDIFF,
-- An optional 4th parameter to function REPLACE(string, from, to, [[-]n]),es the replacements to start from the end of string
