Version 14.90.4 of RJ TextEd has been released. This free Swedish-made text editor has several features, which are especially interesting for software and web developers, such as syntax highlighting, autocompletion, extensive selection and sorting options and an embedded (s)ftp client. The program is being developed for Windows, but can also be used under Linux via Wine. Since version 14.70, the following changes and improvements have been made:

Version 14.90.4

Find References (View-Panels-LSP Client)

This is a language server feature that will list all references to the item under the text cursor. It can be a variable, function, object … Menu item is found in the right click context menu (Find – Find References). The references tree lists file and references found in that file. Double click on an item to select it in the document.

Document Symbols (View-Panels-LSP Client)

This is a language server feature. You can use the panel to display a hierarchical tree view of all classes, methods, properties etc. in a file or open document.

Symbol Search

Another language server feature. The search box is located in the document symbols panel. The search is project wide and will list items found in both your project files and in library files. Some useful keys:

Down Move down to the tree view below.
Esc Clear search and change focus to the editor.
Space Select focused item in the tree view, but keep focus on the tree view.
Enter Select focused item in the tree view and change focus to the editor.

Diagnostics (View-Panels-LSP Client)

Another language server feature. The tree view will display diagnostic errors, warnings, hint and information found in any of the open documents. Diagnostics are also displayed in the code explorer, but only for the currently active document. The diagnostics panel display information from all open documents.

Rename symbol

This is another language server feature. The menu item can be found in the right click context menu. Use it to rename a class, object, method, field variable or any other symbol under the cursor. The renaming is project wide, so all instances of the symbol will be renamed (even if the file isn’t open).

Format document

Another language server feature to format a selection, or the whole current document. The menu item is available in the right click context menu. A prompt asking for options is displayed when selecting the menu item.

Preview Commands

Available in the HTML menu. Allows you to assign a file extension to a command used when previewing a file. The command can eg convert the current document to a HTML file and allow you to preview the converted file.

Ex. Command: showdown Argument: makehtml -i “%s” -o “%d” “%s” = current document “%d” = converted HTML file used for preview

This is used in all previews, eg live preview, internal browsers, browser tabs…

Fixed

Version 14.80.1

Language server (LSP) support

It’s now possible to use language servers with projects and sites.

The language server will scan your project files (or site) and provide completion, mouse hover information, parameter hints and diagnostics (errors, warnings, information, hints). And if the server supports it, find definition/type definition/declaration/implementation.

You need to install the language server yourself. And when done, you can add it to your project or site. The forum has a thread containing information on how to install different language servers and how to add them to your project or site. You can add several language servers to each project or site. The editor support stdio and tcp socket communication, so it should work with most language servers.
