I use shared NAS disk in LAN network.EmEditor cannot rewirte file on shared LAN disk on command “Save” (example: Save Hello.txt).
EmEditor can only use command “Save As” (example: Save As Hello1.txt).
Microsoft Notepad.exe without problem rewrite file on shared NAS disk on command “Save”.
I cannot reproduce your problem. What error message do you get when you try to Save? Or you cannot select Save command because it is grayed out?
It sounds that the problem is caused by either MS Word or by Windows. I cannot fix that with EmEditor. You might want to remove unnecessary langauge from the Language Options in Control Panel. You might have pressed the shortcut key to switch the language. In this case, you can remove that key from the Language Options in Control Panel.

I suggest add option to use external tool as text filter.1) Pass all / selected text to the stdin of external tool, capture the stdout of external tool, and replace all / selected text with it.
2) Copy all text to a temp file, process the temp file with external tool, and replace all text with content of the temp file.
EmE is unable to undo change if I process the current file directly with external tool, isn’t it?
Thanks for your comments.
(1) I don’t know if you noticed, but you could use $(CurText) in the Arguments field in External Tools Properties.
(2) Thanks for input!
If you process current file, and reload with EmEditor, it will not be able to undo it.

I have a 126MB text file of mostly short lines. I load it in EmEditor 7.00.1, hit Ctrl+A, and then hit Del to delete the text. The program crashes.It sounds that there is not enough space for the Undo buffer. You might want to make sure you have enough disk space for swapping file or temporary files in your primary drive. I will try to reproduce your issue when I have a time. Thanks!

Copy Configuration A to be Configuration B.
Change something in B (e.g. Show Line Numbers).
Select B to be the current configuration. (!)
Select A.
Delete B.
Copy A to be B again.
Select B.
You’ll find the new B does not appear as A, but appears as the old B, as if you didn’t delete it.And a suggestion:
I hope clicking Select button in Define Configurations dialog won’t close the dialog. This will be convenient for deleting/renaming the current configuration.A configuration cannot be deleted when it is in use. I will try to reproduce your issue when I have a time. Thanks!

I generally use EmEditor to edit programs and shell scripts that are also used on old-fashioned Unix terminals, so I generally try to keep my programs and scripts within an 80-character line length.Is there any way to get EmEditor to show a margin guide at a given column, such as column 80 or 132 (a vertical line and/or shaded area to the right of column 80)?
This would be very handy, and is a feature many editors have. If it cannot currently do this, I’d like to request it as an enhancement. :-)
Thanks!
You might want to change the color of “Outside of regions” in the Display tab of configuration properties.

Any word about this subject????Since this is a suggestion forum, I do not always reply to messages. I certainly consider this in future versions. Thanks!

Hello,I have some old projects that are written in classic ASP, using JavaScript scripting language (don’t ask).
I love to work them, using EmEditor, however syntax highlighting gives me hard time sometimes. It seems as the editor can not distinguish what scripting language should be assumed, and colors my ‘strings’ in green, because it thinks it’s a VBScript comment. And that’s just one example.
I think I am missing something here… Perhaps there should be some way to fix this erroneous behaviour? Some setting, where I can write, what Scripting language is associated with ASP?
Thanks!
Is there any options like lang=’JavaScript’ in your code?
Can you please zip your sample ASP code and email it to [email protected]? Thanks!

OK, thanks. I don’t know if I need to add another post but another thing that I noticed was that the Word Count Plug-in didn’t seem to work. I went to enable it and EmEditor grayed it out (I assume this indicates either a missing plug-in or a broken one). I did not dig into it any further than that. Thanks again.You probably did not select any text when you try to use the Word Count plug-in. If you want to count the entire text in the document, select all by pressing CTRL + A, and then select the Word Count plug-in.

Yeah I am, sorry for not mentioning that earlier.No problem at all. I will look into this issue as soon as I come home from my trip. Thanks!

I tried that at that also didn’t work. Any other suggestions? ThanksAre you using the 64-bit version of EmEditor Professional?

I am currently running version 7.00.1 and the issue is still there. just incase my initial description was not clear enough, these are the steps that I am using to reproduce the issue:Open a new file
Type some text (ie- “qwerty”)
Press enter
Click on line 1 column 80 and type “u”The old behaviour that I am accustomed to is that “u” is on line 1 column 7. the Behaviour that I am seeing is that “u” is at column 80 and there are 73 spaces in between “y” and “u”.
I suspect “Enable Virtual Space” is checked in the General tab of the current Configuration Properties.

Yes.
And please test from the trayicon menu. (I finally found this today.)I am travelling now, and I cannot debug now. I will look into the problem when I have a time. Thanks!

I would like an option to indent a line as the previous line, no matter what character the line ends with. I’m programming in javascript, and structure the code in following manner:kontakter = new Ext.Panel({
region: 'center',
title: 'Kontakter',
width: 400
});This is an usual way to structure code with the Extjs library. But EmEditor indents the lines starting with ‘title’ and ‘width’, because the previous sentence does not end with a semicolon, and hence is not an end of statement. I haven’t found a way to change this behaviour.
Frode
How about removing any characters in the “End of Statement” text box?

I installed 7.00.1 and when I went to associate a .php extension the OS would not allow it.I went to Open With, Browse, selected emeditor.exe, and nothing. EmEditor was not added to the list for me to select from.
You should associate file extensions from within EmEditor. Go to the Tools menu in EmEditor, select Customize, File tab, click Associate with EmEditor.

I am evaluating v7 new features and I have noticed a difference between the way emeditor used to behave. My previous experience was if you click on any area after the the end of a line the cursor position would move to the end of the line. What I am seeing now is when you click in the area the cursor is not moving witch is causing me alot of unintentional edits. Is this behaviour due to a new feature or the result of my evaluating the various options in the new version? at any rate if someone knows how to modify the settings to achieve this I would greatly appriciate the helpDid you try Version 7.00.1?

Is there any settings that will allow using wildcards on the command line? For example if i type emeditor *.txt to open all the textfiles in the current directory. If i try to do that now i only get the error message The specified path is invalid.
If that is not possible to do by changing some settings it would be nice to see this in a future release of emeditor.If you search in this forum, you will see similar posts in the past. I might consider this feature in future. Thanks!
You can turn off Auto Indent option.
In Current Configuration, go to Basic tab, press Tab/Indent and turn off Auto Indent.Snusmumrik wrote:
If I try to do a “Search/Replace in Files” onto a a network share, i.e. machineshare, Emeditor seems unable to find any files. As of now, I have to map a share to a local drive to make the search work.I’d like Emeditor to be able to do search and replace in files directly onto a network share, would simplify things a lot.
I could not reproduce your problem. I can find/replace files in network shares. Can you make sure your shares have write permissions, and you can use Notepad to create and write files on to that share?
LTT wrote:
[Find in Files] from trayicon is ok.Then switch to [Replace in Files], press [Replace All] button, confirm the warning dialog. The new process of EmEditor.exe for the replacing job will be terminated immediately.
V6’s trayicon can finish the same job.
I reproduced this issue. I will fix that by next minor version. Thanks!

Is there any setting that will allow me to create more then one new/empty document? When i make a change to the new/unmodifed document i’m able to create one new document using CTRL-N, but i’m not able to create several new/empty text files since emeditor won’t create a new document as long as i already have a new/unmodified document open.No, but you can create new files from comman line or from the Tray Icon.

Yes, Emeditor can do columnar selections, but edits on this selection are not applied to all lines of a selection.
F.e. make a column selction of zero width and begin to type:
Emeditor: the text appears on only one line, on the other lines nothing happens.
BoxEditor Plugin or Boxer Texteditor: the typed text appears on all lines – which I think is the natural behaviour.
Theres is a demo at http://www.boxersoftware.com/pgbwin.htm.
If you select some text in box mode and type something, the typed text should appear on all lines.This is for example useful to prefix some lines with something or to replace the prefix with something else, or to fill columns in a table with a default text.
Thanks for information. I will think about adding this feature, but meanwhile you can use BoxEditor plug-in, and you can assign a shortcut key to run this plug-in. Thanks!
To observe indent feature, in the Tab/Indent dialog box:
– “Enable Auto Indent” must be checked.
– “Begin Indent” and “End Indent” text boxes must be filled, for instance, { and }.Then if you type, “line 1, {, line 2, line3, }, line4”, you will see
line 1
{
(indent) line 2
(indent) line 3
}
line 4
