TextStudio 0.0.847 Changelog

2010-07-04: Improved Format menu, keyboard handling, conflicted file detection, stability and more.

Conflicted File Handling

Now warns of conflicts when another application has altered an open file:

Created a CheckedForConflicts() function.
Displays a message box with these options:
- Yes:
- Save the file anyway.
- No:
- Skip this file but continue others.
- Cancel:
- Skip this file and any others.
Message box also includes these times:
- Previous action you performed on that file in that window.
- The file’s Last Modified time.
- The current time, since you are currently attempting an action which conflicts with the last modification.
LastAction is set when any file is:
- Loaded by OpenFile().
- Reloaded by OpenFile().
- Saved by SaveFilesByID().
- Saved by SaveFileAs().
Added a LastAction property to the ChildStatus object array so it can compare modification times.
MenuFileReload() now re-uses OpenFile().
Tolerates 1 second of inaccuracy since I save files via a corporate network.
Message box now displays filename only, instead of entire path, when prompting to resolve a conflict.

Shortcuts published as a blog entry since they may change over time. (Occassionally updated documented in keyboard.txt.)
Centralised keyboard handler:
- Working prototype in modKeyboard.Project_KeyDown.
- Dialogue windows each retain their form-level keyboard handler.
- Got to make it work right.
- Most shortcuts weren’t working in Find/Replace Panel.
- Saves duplication at runtime with each instance of frmFile.
- Saves duplication in source code in modFindPanel.
Focus behaviour:
- Into, out of and within panels for Find/Replace and Go To Line.
- Automatic selection of text within panels.

Close Files no longer crashes when you close all open files.
Close Files no longer crashes when you close several files where each causes a Save changes to filename? message box.
Added Reload Files button.
Refactored code so each button Index is now an entry in a Private Enum instead of a magic number.

HTML Form:
- Form no longer has an empty duplicate method="" attribute.
- Form now has method="post" instead of method="get".
- Dropdown now has name="" attribute.
- Option no longer has value="" attribute because element content is submitted in its absence.
- Checkbox no longer has checked="checked".
- Checkbox no longer has value="" attribute.
- Textbox no longer has value="" attribute.
HTML List:
- Definition List now closes the start tag for <dl> and <dd> when no text is selected.
HTML Block:
- Address tags are now created on same line.
