Features and/or Improvements / Aarch64 Linux Build

« Last post by PaulElliott on September 15, 2024, 05:39:19 PM »

Now you guys have a Mac Aarch64 build for M series hardware, I don't suppose you have considered releasing an Aarch64 build for Linux?

SlickEdit® / Re: Jumbled Chinese characters in plaintext file

« Last post by bogedo on September 13, 2024, 01:29:07 PM »

Thank you for getting back to me on this issue and also for the tips, i now have a bit of an understanding of the issue.
i have tried setting the default Windows code page to Utf-8 but i still see the same issue when opening the attached file. is detecting code pages something that you are actively looking into for SlickEdit's auto encoding detection ? if not please seriously consider looking into it because from time to time we may come across files that have different code pages than the default ones on our systems and it would be nice if SlickEdit took care of detecting the code page of a file and applying the suitable encoding for them.

At the moment, SlickEdit's auto encoding detection doesn't detect any code pages. SlickEdit has a lot of detection for unicode encodings (Utf-8, Utf-16, UTf-32).  However, on Windows, if you set the default code page to Chinese Simplified GB2312, then SlickEdit would correctly display this file. Also, you could create a new text file, enter characters from the Chinese Simplified GB2312 code page and save it and the resulting file would be saved in the Chinese Simplified GB2312 code page.

At this point, it's best to use a Unicode encoding to avoid issues with new files you create. Interestingly, the Windows default code page can be configured to be Utf-8 but I think it's still considered experimental (SlickEdit supports it).

Features and/or Improvements / Re: Command Palette

I appreciate your reply to this request, Thank you for joining in.
indeed, the command line almost fulfil's the same need however it suffers from the shortcoming you mentioned and it is out of the way at the bottom of SlickEdit. a command palette as implemented in software like Sublime Text and UEStudio is front and centre and here it is better seen. the command line currently does not support all the commands as we see them in SlickEdit's menus which means we cannot use it to launch some tools like Generate GUID.
the command palette of my dreams in SlickEdit would:
- contain all menu items as well as documented and undocumented commands
- enable us to type in search terms for the help system that is: if i type in "help regex evaluator", it would open the Regex Evaluator topic in the help file
- be used to switch between open tabs or open windows
despite the option of the command line, i still believe that the command line if extensively implemented would be an awesome addition to SlickEdit.

IMHO, the SlickEdit command line is essentially already almost what you are asking for.  Hit Esc and start typing a command and it shows you options for what you type.  It could be improved by showing options that not only start with the letters you type, but also include, or are related to, what you type.

it has been over three years since this request was posted and i'd still love to see this feature implemented in SlickEdit. it would make access of the various commands in SlickEdit faster and more convenient.

SlickEdit® / Jumbled Chinese characters in plaintext file

« Last post by bogedo on September 12, 2024, 04:28:16 PM »

when opening the attached file, the Chinese characters are jumbled. this is with Auto Unicode2 Utf-8 selected under Encoding for the plaintext language mode. setting the encoding to Chinese Simplified GB2312 results in the characters displaying as they should.
interestingly, the same file opens correctly in Notepad++; it detects the language automatically and applies the correct encoding to the file.
