Published December 15, 2007

A few people have asked for a more detailed changeset for skEdit v4.0. This list is not exhaustive, and quite a lot is collapsed into generic "bug fixes" items, but it does capture most of the big ticket items:

  • Redesigned remote files interface
  • New project architecture allowing for editing local files, remote files, or a mix of both
  • Code folding
  • Tabbed windows outside of a project
  • Themes to easily edit and share syntax highlighting styles
  • Code indexing, so that custom functions/classes/etc. are displayed in the code completion
  • Group language-specific settings into bundles for syntax highlighting, code completion, code folding, code indexing, and code navigator
  • Code completion that references a file path now brings up an open dialog
  • Refreshed user interface for editing, snippets, tidy, preferences, search, image viewer
  • More robust handling of network transitions while remote editing
  • Reliablity improvements for remote editing
  • Directory upload/download/deletion for remote editing
  • Ruby and Ruby on Rails support
  • SQL support
  • Allow styling in the code navigator (bold, italic, icons, separators)
  • Updated Subversion support to use your local client, preventing versioning conflicts
  • Subversion is built-in, no need for a plugin
  • Improved hanlding of encodings
  • Image dimensions are reported correctly in the image viewer
  • Quick search will go in reverse on shift-enter
  • Improved robustness and stability of the project view
  • Better handling of saved window frames

  • Various bug fixes in the ODB external editor support
  • Tons of other bug fixes as well as minor tweaks and enhancements

Thx Sean !

Just downloaded between a short update on a website, cooking pastas, answering the phone.

I like it and I find it well balanced.

Congrats (x1000)
