    I would like to recommend a few new features.
    1. Another convenient way to select a block of text instead of pressing CTRL+SHIFT+F8: Hold the right mouse button and drag a box.
    2. Add a REPEAT command which ask the user to input an integer n followed by a keystroke, then repeat that keystroke for n times automatically.
    3. A display option to show the end mark of the current line, not every line.
    4. SHIFT+TAB deindent the current line if no text is selected and the cursor is at the 1st non-space character.
    5. A more flexible indent/deindent algorithm. In C++ configuration, the editor indents when seeing a ‘{‘ and deindents automatically when seeing a ‘}’. I wish EE can generalized this to any defined keyword pairs like begin/end, if/endif, select/endselect… to support more languages.
    6. Extend parentheses/brackets and outline plug-in to support unlimited keyword pairs (begin/end, if/endif, module/endmodule, case/endcase….)

    A question: if the currnet line is not empty and no character is selected, what will happen to ctrl+c? Will EmEditor copy the whole line? I would like it to do so in this case so I don’t have to select the line first if I want to copy the whole line. I ask this question because I have no time to try RC5 these days.

    1. Can’t double click current encoding on the status bar to change encoding. I’m not sure when it starts to happen, all I do are changing font property for all configurations and current configuration a few times.
    2. When a user selects a block of text and uses the find function, it’s more reasonable to search only the selected region and highlight only matches among the selected region.

    Bravo! You do the job very well! How about persisting box-editing mode when the user presses LEFT or RIGHT key? If the user presses LEFT or RIGHT, just move the vertical selection(grey vertical line) to the new position. I don’t know how useful this will be to the others, but this saves a lot of time when editing a highly sturctured text file, like verilog or VHDL. I’m a verilog coder and I like every text editor to have this function. :-D
