Following commands can be executed against all documents in the current group by clicking the button while pressing the SHIFT key — Normal Mode, all “CSV” commands, all “Convert to” commands, Fixed Width Columns, all “Sort” commands, Delete Duplicate Lines, Heading 0 – 4, Adjust Separator Positions, Automatically Add Separators, and Remove All Separators.
  • The CSV tab was added to the Customize dialog box. You can add or edit CSV formats here. Currently you can define up to 8 CSV formats. As a delimiter, you can specify up to 39 character long string. The “Allow delimiters in double quotes” check box, the “Allow new lines in double quotes” check box and the Heading text box were added.
  • The CSV files to detect list box was added to the File tab of configuration properties.
  • The Extract All button was added to the Find dialog box. Pressing the “Extract All” button will extract lines containing the searched string to a new document.

EmEditor v14.5.4 released!

/0 Comments/in /by

In response to the hacking incident on the other day, we decided to disable the update checker until we can confirm the safety of our server and the Update Checker. We strongly recommend this update to all EmEditor users.

For safety of customers, we removed update configuration files in our server. Therefore the Update Checker on older versions of EmEditor will not be available anymore. If you try to check updates from older versions, you will see the prompt message: “Invalid or missing updates configuration file. …”. This is not a bug. Please download and update to the newest version of EmEditor by clicking here.

Updates from v14.5.3 include:

Features Removed

  • The Update Checker features were disabled. The Check for Updates and Customize Update Checker commands were removed or disabled.

Enhancements

Bug Fixes

Please see EmEditor v14 New Features.

Dear EmEditor user,

We have found malicious files were placed in a subfolder of the EmEditor website, and we estimate these files were placed by a hacker between 6:36 am and 11:20 am on August 18th in the Pacific Daylight Time (USA and Canada), or between 1:36 pm and 6:20 pm on August 18th in the UTC.

Our website scans were completed, and all our websites were clean, including all of our foreign language EmEditor websites as well as Emurasoft Customer Center. This means this English website was not affected by this case.

Nevertheless, as a precaution, we recommend changing your password if you have an account in one of our sites, and please do not share the same password with Emurasoft Customer Center or any other websites.

To prevent future hacker attacks, we have tightened our security level. We no longer accept new members automatically. If you are not a member yet, and if you would like to join our forums, please contact us.

EmEditor foreign language websites attacked by hackers

/0 Comments/in /by

Dear EmEditor user,

On August 12th, 2014, we discovered traces of malicious code in our Japanese EmEditor home page and Simplified Chinese EmEditor home page. Because of this, we temporarily stopped our websites, and we have been checking and cleaning up the sites. In the Japanese site, there were traces where usernames, passwords, and IP addresses of users might have been compromised.

If you have an account in the Japanese site, it is strongly recommended that you change your password. To change the password, please go to the Forums page and log into your account. After signing in, you will see a menu bar showing at the top of the webpage. Go to the top right corner of the webpage that shows your username and in the drop-down menu click “Edit My Profile” .

Currently, there is no evidence that other language sites including this English site was compromised, and there is no evidence that Emurasoft Customer Center was compromised. However, as a precaution, we strongly recommend changing your password if you have an account in these sites. If you share the same password with other websites, we also recommend changing your passwords with those sites.

We apologize for any inconveniences that this situation might have caused you. We are still scanning other language home pages. We will keep you updated if there are any progresses. Thank you.

32-bit version of installer updated

/0 Comments/in /by

32-bit version of installer updated

Today, we are replacing the 32-bit version of installer. There was an issue with Custom Install in the 32-bit installer for v14.5.x. The issue was that even if you selected “Custom” and then disabled “Program Shortcuts and Association” features (or any sub features in this folder), these features were actually installed. The new installer fixed this issue. The new file name for the new installer is “emed32_14.5.3a.exe”. The new installer can be downloaded at the Download page.

There are no changes with the 64-bit version of installer nor the portable version, and there are no changes with the actual EmEditor program files. Most customers do not need to update with this fix. However, if you already installed v14.5.x (32-bit) and wish to reinstall EmEditor without “Program Shortcuts and Association” options during install, you could do so by uninstalling existing EmEditor first, and then reinstall EmEditor by using the new installer.

I apologize for any inconveniences you might have experienced.

Thank you for using EmEditor!

The Next version of EmEditor (v14.6) will enhance the CSV support (including separated values such as TSV and DSV). We are glad to hear that more customers use EmEditor to analyze big data these days. We would like to hear what features should be included to make EmEditor more useful to edit very large CSV files.

If you have opinions or feature requests related to CSV support, please post a message to our forums or in the Contact Us Form.

EmEditor v14.5.3 released!

/0 Comments/in /by

Today, we are releasing EmEditor v14.5.3. Please always update EmEditor to the newest version.
Updates from v14.5.2 include:

Enhancements

  • The Find in Files feature now shows the Progress Bar.
    When starting Find in Files, EmEditor will first count the number of files in the specified folder (and the sub folders if specified), so it might look a several-second pause before searching. If you prefer the previous behavior, in the Registry key:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\EmSoft\EmEditor v3\Common,
    you can create a new DWORD value called “GrepCountFiles” and set the value to 0.

Bug Fixes

Please see EmEditor v14 New Features for details.

Download EmEditor v14 Now.

V14 is free upgrade from v13. To use v14, you will need a v14 registration key. If you have valid v13 licenses, you can view your free v14 registration keys at Emurasoft Customer Center.
80% of our customers (including old customers who have registered their products) already have lifetime licenses. Even if you haven’t installed v13, please click the above link to check if you can upgrade to v14.
