Software Update: CudaText 1.178.0

Version 1.178.0 of CudaText has been released. This open source and cross platform text editor is available for Windows, Linux, macOS, BSD and Solaris. It has extensive options which are of particular interest to software developers. It is developed in Object Pascal, starts quickly and through Python add-ons the functionality can be further extended. The program is under active development and new versions appear regularly. The changelog for this release looks like this:

Added:

• Allow Differ plugin to fill ui-tab context menu ‘on demand’ and not ‘on file opening’ which was much slower
• Opening lot of files via command line (and Windows Shell Extension) must not activate each file on loading
• Dialog “Themes” has improved UI
• Option “find_suggest_in_selection” also detects the columnar selection
• Lexer PHP: support inclusion of JSON blocks

Fixed:

• Sometimes, program doesn’t apply dark _syntax_ theme on startup
• Sometimes, “Extract RegEx matches” doesn’t repaint the resulting editor
• Regression: files always open ‘activated’ even when it’s needed ‘in background ui-tab’
• Bug in lexer JSON^with [[“aa”,”aa”],{“aa”:”bb”}]
