Thank you for answering this question as well.

Just to avoid any misunderstanding due to my “spelling” above:
I appreciate your work very much(!).

Only the 100 day limit on bookmarks makes this feature useless for me. :-(

[tuska]

Thank you for your answer.

********************************************************
With your information, bookmarks become superfluous for me.
********************************************************

I would have prepared this supplementary question – but it is now superfluous for me too,
but perhaps it will interest other users.

“In this context, I also noticed that the favourites <“Pin to this (favorite) list”> are also stored in the file “FileAttr.bin“,
because they were also transferred to the portable version.

This also raises the question for the favourites: Are they influenced in any way by the 100-day limit?
Does the 100-day calculation generally apply from the date of creation, modification or access?”

[tuska]

Thank you for this advice!

This is my current situation.

BACKUP of bookmarks – ONLY installed version (“.ini, .reg”):
D:\Daten\Programme\Totalcmd\Tools\EmEditor-portabel\Migration\Einstellungen\Einstellungen-der-INSTALLIERTEN-Version_ini\AppData\Common\

Start EmEditor Professional (64-bit) Version 21.6.0 portable.
Bookmarks from installed version are available in portable version!

This eliminates one problem, provided that the text files are ALWAYS in the same DRIVE and PATH where the bookmarks were created.
At the same time, however, this means that later, e.g. after replacing a hard disk or PC, you must know
on which drive you have saved your text files.
****************************************************************************************************************************

> On the new version, 100 days is the maximum value for both Save Cursor Position and Save Bookmarks options.
Please explain in more detail what exactly this means in practice.

Here is an example and comments from me:

BACKUP of bookmarks (25.11.2021) and Bookmarks CURRENT (29.04.2022) from installed version are DIFFERENT.
Name/Ext		Size		Date		 		Note
FileAttr.bin	1 224 519	25.11.2021 11:54	Backup  (only made when settings are changed)
FileAttr.bin	   84 689	29.04.2022 12:59	Current

Questions:
1) What does the big difference in file size mean to me?
Have bookmarks already saved here been deleted? Which and in which textfiles?
Was my work here maybe even for the dustbin?

2) Is there currently no way to view/access saved bookmarks in text files after 100 days?

3) It is advertised on EmEditor’s first webpage as follows: “Easily handle files up to 16 TB”
and EmEditor has a problem with a “file history” because of bookmarks?

I really hope I’m wrong and that everything I said in “Notes to Questions” about “saved bookmarks” isn’t true.

In any case, I would like to ask you for an answer so that I can decide for myself whether it still makes sense to use bookmarks
in EmEditor Professional (64-bit) – currently Version 21.6.907.

[tuska]

On the subject of “bookmarks”, there is another problem for me with regard to my “backup strategy”:
My asymmetrical backups in Total Commander are made daily [several times] from drive D: to I:, J:, N:

Drive D: is my “main drive” where I create the bookmarks in the text files in the installed EmEditor version.

With the installed version, ONLY the bookmarks in text files from drive D: are taken into account,
i.e. if I open the same text file – for some reason – from drives I:, J:, N:, then there are NONE left there!
There would only be the tedious workaround of saving a text file with “Save as…” to drives I:, J:, N: respectively,
so that they are also available there(!).

Just for the sake of order, I would like to mention that bookmarks saved in the installed version
are NOT available in the portable version and vice versa.

Also with regard to a possible new PC (because of Windows 11) it is currently questionable for me,
whether I should continue to create bookmarks, although I otherwise like this function very much.

[tuska]

I would like to add the following:

Installed version:
Tools -> Customize… -> History

[✓] Save Cursor Position: 30000	days  (default)
[✓] Save Bookmarks:         100	days  (default)

Change

FROM: Save Bookmarks:  	    100 days
TO:   Save Bookmarks:      6500 days

Portable Version:
Change

FROM: Save Bookmarks:  	    100 days
TO:   Save Bookmarks:      6500 days

Start of the installed version:
Tools -> Customize… -> History

[✓] Save Cursor Position:  100 days	!??
[✓] Save Bookmarks:        100 days	!??

Start of the portable version:
Tools -> Customize… -> History

[✓] Save Cursor Position:  100 days	!??
[✓] Save Bookmarks:        100 days	!??

In the installed version, another attempt was made to restore the original values (default).
A change is currently not possible, i.e. both values remain at 100 days.

Please Check.
Thank you!

PS:
I am mainly interested in finding out whether the bookmarks are retained after a change of PC.
and – after this action – to find out how long the bookmarks are retained in a .TXT file.

Hi,
I cannot confirm this under the following conditions:
Tools -> Properties for All Configurations -> Highlight (1)

☑ Enable Keyword Highlight
Only User-Defined Strings, e.g. highlight
Color: Highlight (1)

nothing else ticked off.

What are your settings?

I like this idea.

In Total Commander this is solved, for example, as follows:

Context menu (right click on an existing button)
– Cut
– Copy
– Paste

There is a code behind it that you could also use, for example, in forum inquiries.

Example of a button in Total Commander with the code behind it:

TOTALCMD#BAR#DATA
em_copynamestofileB

Wciconex.dll,46
em_copynamestofileB (Unicode;UCS-2 LE BOM;UTF-16LE with Signature)|Copy selected filenames with full path to file in current folder|https://ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?p=369080#p369080

0
10032

Explanation of the button:
Line 1: This allows TC to recognize this code in the clipboard and to show the ‘Paste’ entry in the buttonbar context menu.
Line 2: The command
Line 3: The parameters for the command (the leading ‘?’ causes the command to be displayed when executing)
Line 4: Path to the file of the icon
Line 5: The tooltip
Line 6: The start path
Line 7: Call parameter minimized as icon / maximized (usercmd.ini: iconic)
Line 8: The number of the internal TC command if line 2 contains one, otherwise ‘-1’ for other commands.

Formatting – Test

abc – b-quote – abc

?

[tuska]

I would update to version 19.8.1

[tuska]

Hello,
Email + attachements (2 videos, 3x Report.wer) sent on Feb. 8, at 10:32 pm.

Thanks.

[tuska]

Thank you for your answer and the hint regarding language setting.
I have already looked at the website with explanations.

I had set as language “English (United Kingdom)”. Here the context menu entry is not available.

If I set the following languages (installed version, portable version), then I get the context menu entry:
– English (United States) – (context menu entry: “Rename”)
– Deutsch – (= German; context menu entry: “Umbenennen”)

I only tested these two languages.

[tuska]

After having received an email from Mr. Emura on Nov. 3, with a hint regarding the settings,
the problem with the 2 tabs when starting EmEditor is also solved for me.

I have changed my settings as follows:
Tools > Customise… > Shortcut >
☑ Display a tray icon to the task bar
☑ Display a tray icon when EmEditor launches

Thanks a lot!

[tuska]

Thank you very much for your prompt fix of the “Move Line Up/Down” commands!

There is still a problem with the double tabs after program starts,
which, however, in Version 19.3.2 only occur randomly.

I have sent you another email with a link to a new video.
Thank you!
