Following is a listing of changes from FstEddie2.5 to FastEddie2.6:
• "changE spacing" in display menu changes lineheight
(<cmd><Shift>E decreases spacing, <cmd>E increases
it), "save oPtions" makes the last change the default
• standard clipboard now implemented
• stacked windows are now bigger (and more convienent)
• window title is now full path name
• All open files are now passed to any "transfer" program
• mmc auto error display with megamax C upgraded to HFS
• implicit transfer names (items > 12 in the file menu)
are disabled if they cannot be opened (thus preventing
any attempted open of a non existant file)
• changing fonts now tries to maintain size (previous
default was smallest size)
• Lineheight set to multiple of font (for better spacing)
• Auto indent copies both TABS and blanks (previously
it inserted blanks only)
• inserting blank before TAB moves TAB to next stop
• bug exterminated .. attempted synchronized scroll bombed
when there was only one window open
Following is a listing of changes from FstEddie2.4 to FastEddie2.5:
• "insert returns" in display menu inserts carriage returns at
line breaks in selected text (use with word wrap on to "freeze"
line widths)
• "delete returns" in display menu deletes carriage returns in
selected text (to undo "insert returns")
• <cmd><Shift><Enter> extends selection to the end of the file
(our answer to a request for "Select all")
• <Option><Shift><Enter> extends selection the to top of the file
and scrolls to the top of the file (ditto)
• change buffer in "find, change..." now understands "\n" (carriage
return) and "\t" (tab) and "\l" (linefeed .. undocumented)
• "about <file>" now has column number (requested by Fortran
programmers)
• auto scroll now works with Mac+ ROMs (The erradic behavior of
SelRect in the new ROMs caused much grief)
Following is a listing of changes from FstEddie2.3 to FastEddie2.4:
new features:
• <cmd><Option>W now activates next window
• <cmd><Option><Shift>W now activate previous window
• optional hard TAB emulation
• "tabs are simple" in options menu uses appropriate spaces
instead of TAB characters .. "tabs are smart" emulates
"hard" tabs
• cursor movement from arrows on Mac+ or keypad
• default is character movement
• use <Option> for word and line movement
• use <Shift> to extend selection
pretifications:
• Untitled now without leading disk name
• horizontal scroll to home on change to wrap (simplifies code)
• horizontal scroll now disallowed in word wrap (simplifies code)
• flushevents on startup eliminated (eliminates periodic problem
with disk insertion during "open..." dialog startup)
minor bugs fixed:
• transfer from TabsOut (V1.2) now works
• break lines in File menu now always disabled
• slight horizontal scroll misallignment fixed
