I think it is not possible. I tried pasting a fully qualified ftp path ( ftp://user:password@host/path/filename ) into the normal Open File dialog and as expected Windows pulled the file from the FTP-server and placed it in the temp folder. And as expected a save file will not put the file back on t...

Some input: One "nice to have" thing spring to mind : A count of how many history lines each group have ? (so as to evaluate if it is time or worth to clear history) And one design issue: There are a lot of "clear" buttons - maybe the buttons on top and bottom together with checkmarks is sufficient ...

Hi rhapdog - Kudos! - I find myself going into the UE ini file using notepad every now when my work shifts to new focus and clear out old search/replace history, bookmarks, hidden lines - keeping recent projects/files and "find in file" (as not to loose patterns/file path). Your program makes that a...

Okay, Troy from IDM replied promptly, but were only able to give the answer that the JavaScript engine in UltraEdit for Windows v18.00 is defined as v1.8, not being sure what the exact version number is. I'm satisfied with the fact that the String.prototype addition I probably used the most - trim()...

I have sent IDM an e-mail asking if they will comment on the JavaScript engine version issue? Stay tuned ...

In the thread Script to find, remove and report repeating words within a line : However, I found it interesting that there was no error on execution of your script because of function trim(). According to String methods documentation this method of the String object was added with JavaScript 1.8.1 a...

Hi! parseInt takes two arguments: The mandatory string to be converted to integer and an optional argument: Base (radix) of the number. Without the second argument general Javascript syntax for numbers apply. Thus numbers starting with 0 are octal (numbers 00 to 07). "08" and "09" is an invalid octa...

BTW, what tool do you use to debug a JavaScript script? I had a typo somewhere, and it took me 15 min to figure it out, since UE doesn't return any info Quite often UE will only tell you: "...An error occured on line X..." in the output window. Which error ? Well a technique to quickly locate an er...

There are no interface between the scripting environment and SSH/Telnet consoles. But feel free to send IDM support an enhancement request. See e-mail address at the top of the page. But imagine something like: UltraEdit.showConsole(true/false); <- show/hide console window - - - - Handle terminal wi...

It is not only used for debugging. I use the output window for informational data about programs or datasets. I frequently create shortcuts for the output window like: function log (logmsg) { UltraEdit.outputWindow.write(logmsg); } ... log("this is the value of x now:" + x); The string formatting pa...

I saved a copy of the script since it was released into the public domain on May 15th, 2007. // Script by. Rain Style http://www.rain.com.au // // TODO: Detect line terminators // // Add phpDocs comment style above a function declaration/definition. function phpDocFunc() { var doc = UltraEdit.active...

I just thought I would have a go at a quick and dirty script :-) The script below uses ECMAScript for XML (E4X) to change the xml into a XML object and the traverses the subnodes until simple nodes are found and then create a tilde separated list for simple nodes on the same level. It changes <First...

This problems seems to be fixed in UltraEdit v16.10.

There is an error in UE 16.00.0.1038 with UltraEdit.saveAs() which somehow "breaks" the further operation in the active file that was saved. UE support has confirmed this error when I reported it a week ago. This is my testcase which fails: UltraEdit.newFile(); UltraEdit.activeDocument.write("before...

I realize we are in the macros subforum and that you ask for help with your macro, but if UE scripts is an option for you ? (which UE version are you using) - scripts offer a more simplistic approach. Here is an example tested with UE 16.00.0.1036: // Setup some defaults for find function: UltraEdit...
