Here's the latest version of CCompletion, an autocompletion plugin designed for the C programming language. It also works nicely for some other languages, due to CTags power. However, CCompletion is aimed at C, so don't expect too much... Changes in 1.08: 1. fixed some bugs 2. redesigned history function - now you have separated buffers for both views and can navigate them freely 3. improved snippets 4. made shortcuts useless unless you redefine them ;) Link is the same: http://freeweb.siol.net/rmihor/NppCCompletionPlugin.zip Regards, Bostjan ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

One of the biggest killers in productivity for me is switching between keyboard and mouse. Using a keyboard shortcut, I can open the FTP folders; using arrows, I can open/close treeview nodes, move between files and folders. But when I reach the desired file, I have to remove my hand from the keyboard, grab the mouse and double-click the file to open it. It would be nice if I could merely highlight the file and hit the ENTER key. Thanks! ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

Given that many other programs work with large files (some load the whole file in memory and some don't), n++ can be made to do so too. For most memory issues, probably, any error message needs to come from the OS. And most OS's suck bad at these types of error messages. It's some other process's fault. Well yeah the program may not have made sure there was enough memory before trying to use it but the OS can do something other than allow a silent seizure to take place. OS's are still infants. ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

Implement it and I will update my CVS folder of NppExec to get the correct header file. Please keep in mind that it should be possible to send arguments with quotations marks like: "C:\\" "C:\\Program Files\\" This example shows 2 arguments - just only if SF removes some chars... BTW: You should use my combo box classes of HexEditor to select the consoles colors. It's easier to change them by this implementation than to add some hex values. Best Regards and Thanks Jens PS: My other request was something like a Output Window for dynamic traces or other stuff and I still developed it for me. ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

That might be but Notepad++ controls scintilla and scintilla is also "only" for the visual output so Notepad++ can control how much and what should be shown by Scintilla. Maybe the only really good working change would be to open big files with some limitations but I would love to see everything working. ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

I dont know if you have a real technical beackground here. Its not really possible to show how much memory availible is and no one would try this. A program can easily try to allocate memory and if this fails doing any workaround/stoping or exit with a error where you know what happens. The system error isnt really an error message it says only that the program crashes on an instruction. ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

I'd also love a little clearer instructions on how to edit the XML directly to do things that can't be done in the GUI. I'd love to be able to format the characters ' and " in php differently, for example, and so far haven't been able to by editing the XML or the GUI. Adding the ability to format based on regexps would solve almost all formatting issues that people have. ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

But I haven't much time. Next release is hopefully a BETA of FunctionList. But at the moment some bug reports for Explorer and HexEditor are upcoming. However, if anyone would like to implement this, here are some ideas how to implement it faster. Merge the functionality of Faves of Explorer plugin and QuickText. The tree should view something like this: +General +C +Java +NSIS +HTML | |-DOCTYPE | |-HEAD | |-href | |-table22 | '-table44 +Perl Each snippet language group like "HTML" contains language specific snippets ;) and will be collapsed if the language is recognized by Notepad. The item "General" contains snippets that can be used at any time and will not be toggled. Also the window should IMO contain a filter like the Function List alpha. If anyone would like to have the code, please let me know. QuickText should be a little modified. Every modification position should be marked with some quotes like <<link>>. If there exist in the snippet two identical positions the other one should be updated.

What I always do: * I keep a _backup_ of the complete Notepad++ installation folder. Whenever there is a new version I update this backup. It would be easiest to simply create the backup just prior to installing each new version. I also keep a backup in the installation directory itself of some .xml settings files. After updating the backup, I also update this backup folder. So, I can safely install a new version, by using the new Notepad++ _installer_. The installer takes care of current settings, only adding new settings to them. After installation, I always compare both directories, backup folder against new installation, to check and possibly correct any differences or changes. I do the same after running and closing the new version. Another way to _test_ a new version: * Unzip the .zip archive to a _new_, _separate_, folder, and run the new Notepad++ from there. If anything should go wrong, you would be able to just delete the new folder. If it's OK, you will still have to copy your settings either way. In short: .zip archives are easy for separate testing of a small but complete package. If you want to upgrade, update and keep your settings, _always_ use the installer. To be safe: always keep a backup folder or create one prior to installing any new version. ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

A program can easily try to allocate memory and if this fails doing any workaround/stoping or exit with a error where you know what happens. The system error isnt really an error message it says only that the program crashes on an instruction. I do have a technical background and I am a programmer but I haven't had to be involved in these issues so there is a lot I don't know. I have worked much with C++ and memory allocation in the past. Yes one should catch any allocation failures. But I doubt you are right that a program can't check how much memory is available given that there are many 3rd party programs that work at a level where this must be necessary and even free utilities report on various states of memory. Yes the system errors typically suck and could be much more rebust. It's easy to blame it on the architecture but it is the OS's responsibility to manage memory. This is why is say that OS's are infants. ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.
