- I'm experienced the same problem. UE is fine via remote desktop from another PC on the same (internal) network but slow enough to be flat-out unusable when connecting from home. Other desktop applications (including code editors like Eclipse) work fine. The problem seems to be an excessive amount of...Posted in Editor Display

- For me there are two main (and interrelated) drivers: flexibility and familiarity. I program in a number of different languages (Perl, C, Java, batch, makefile...) and work with a lot of different text formats (YAML, XML, TAP, custom...) IDEs tend to be focused on a single language/environment. Ecli...Posted in UltraEdit General Discussion

- Assuming the perl installation directory is in your path, and you start your scripts with the line "#! /usr/bin/perl", it should work. The shebang (#!) line is processed by the shell on Unix/Linux systems. It is not recognized by Windows.Posted in Custom User Tools/Tool Configuration

- You can't make UE remember the setting but you can have it change the read-only flag on a file (which will persist) when you change the setting in the editor. The option is at File Handling/Miscellaneous/Change file read-only attribute when changing menu setting .Posted in Projects/Workspace

- How do you guys use an SCM with UE? The only SCM I currently have integrated into UE is ClearCase. I have user tools for checkout: cleartool checkout -nc "%f" checkin: cleartool checkin "%f" revert: cleartool uncheckout -rm "%f" ...and a few others I created a custom toolbar and added these user to...Posted in Custom User Tools/Tool Configuration

- I was wondering if someone had built some add-on to UltraEdit so that I could simply hit a menu item, and the current file would be saved as a revision and let me go on while providing a history of the changes I made at each milepoint? I'd use either Subversion or Git. It's not quite a drop-in solu...Posted in Custom User Tools/Tool Configuration

- UE supports embedded syntax highlighting for HTML (e.g. Javascript sections) but in general it's not possible. I suggest sending a feature request to IDM. I requested this feature a while back. The more people that request it the more likely it is to make it into a future version.Posted in Syntax Highlighting

- It would be great if any user using ClearType can post here if UE v16.20 displays text with a ClearType font now better than previous versions of UltraEdit. From what I can see, no. Specifically, Consolas still looks bad when bolded. This is with the Font Quality setting (under Editor Display->Adva...Posted in Editor Display

- Does your wordfile also contain /Regexp Type = Perl Yes. The problem is nothing quite so obvious, I'm afraid. Groups work great, it's only subgroups that I'm having trouble with.Posted in Syntax Highlighting

- Has anyone managed to get subgroups working in the function list? For example, I added the following to my C wordfile: /TGBegin "Functions" /TGFindStr = "^(?:\w+[ \t]+)+(\w+)[ \t]*\((?s:.+)\)[ \t\n]+\{" /TGBegin "Arguments" /TGFindStr = "[ \t]*([^,]+)" /TGFindBStart = "(" /TGFindBEnd = ")" /TGEnd /T...Posted in Syntax Highlighting

- It can. Press the "Bookmark All" button in the window that shows the matching lines. But the number of bookmarks is limited. See topic Is there a limit for bookmarks per file?Posted in Find/Replace/Regular Expressions

- I have the exact same problem on one of my PCs. I've reported it to IDM but they can't reproduce it. The problem seems to be that another application is stealing the Ctrl+Shift+0 mapping globally (i.e. even when it doesn't have focus) but I've never been able to figure out what. What OS are you runn...Posted in Custom User Tools/Tool Configuration

- Segoe UI ? Never have seen such a font before. Was it installed before? No, it wasn't according to my logs of changes. Segoe UI is one of the fonts added in Windows Vista and also included in Office 2007. It's the default for UI elements (captions, titles, etc.) Some of the fonts in that set (like ...Posted in Configuration/INI Settings

- In my point of view a vertical line as you would like to have is useless for me. It works only for already well indented blocks. When the blocks are already well indented, why is a thin vertical line required? For the same reason that syntax highlighting is required: it's helpful. Indentation guide...Posted in Editor Display

- UltraEditPortable.exe is the launcher. You should use when running it off a flash drive. It exists for a reason. The problem appears to be that the launcher doesn't correctly pass through command line options to uep.exe. You should file a bug report to IDM.Posted in Configuration/INI Settings
