RJ TextEd 16.20

Version 16.20 of RJ TextEd has been released. This free text editor has various options that are especially interesting for software and web developers, such as syntax highlighting, autocompletion, extensive selection and sorting options and a built-in SFTP client. The program is developed for Windows and can also be used under Linux via Wine. The following changes and improvements have been made in this release:

Recently closed files

Added a checkbox in the recent files dropdown list (and on the Home page) to toggle between recently opened and recently closed files.

Options

Made changes in the “Highlight and margin” and “Font and tabs” sections.
Added 4 new tabs to each section.

• Source (default) – default highlighter settings.
  • Source (default) – default highlighter settings.

    li>

  • Text Files – plain text settings.
  • ASCII Files – ASCII settings.
  • Source Files – individual highlighter settings.

  Themes and dialog windows

  Made several visual changes in dialog windows and also several theme improvements.

  High DPI

  Improved main window scaling and scaling in dialog windows. It's most notable when moving main window between different monitors.

  Recent file lists, lists in addons…

  Made check boxes in recent file lists, highlighters and language lists in addons theme aware. They should look better now when using themes. Also fixed some scaling issues on high DPI screens.

  Current line border color

  Added the option to change the current line border color in customize themes dialog window.

  Space between lines

  This option should work better now on really high DPI monitors.

  Text Clips

  Added a hint to preview the code in a text clip . Also added new context menu items.

  Updates (Win 8.1 and newer)

  When a new version is available a Windows notification is displayed. It's added as an option but turned on by default. The message displayed after an update has been installed should now appear as a Windows notification, instead of a dialog box.

  Associate file extension to highlighter

  Added a warning message if a user tries to add a .txt, .nfo or .diz extension to a highlighter, as they are reserved for text and ASCII files.

  Fixed

  • Several “highlight all instances of current word” issues.
  • Setting option for the TAB-key to insert tab characters, instead of spaces, should also set option to preserve tabs (and disable the checkbox).
  • Current highlighter sometimes displayed with wrong case.
  • Style issue in script toolbar.
  • Abbreviations not working with Cpp files.
  • Brace highlighting using alternative font.
