Software Update: RJ TextEd 15.20

Version 15.20 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. The following changes and improvements have been made in this release:

terminal panel

The terminal panel can now open several tabs. You can split the panel and open tabs both to the left and to the right. You can also open Windows PowerShell tabs. To close a tab type “exit”.

Improved speed in the command prompt tab for large outputs like from the “dir” command. (Unfortunately, that doesn’t work with the PowerShell tab.)

Toolbar images

It is now possible to change the toolbar and menu image scaling in options, if you want larger images. The scale factor is given in percent. Available values ​​are: 100%, 125%, 150% and 200%.

Document tabs drop down list

Added an option to sort (or not sort) the drop down list, located in the document tab row.

Themes

Added several new themes to the environment menu. The default theme for new installations is now Windows 10 Charcoal. The themes menu is now sorted and so is the themes list in the customize dialog window.

Moving between monitors

Fixed a few issues when moving between monitors. Especially if they use different scaling (DPI).

Tools (Syntax Editor, Character Viewer…)

Recompiled all tools using the newest version of Delphi and fixed a few issues.

Toggle comment

Should handle indented comments as well as comments at the start of the line.
Changed the toolbar icon.
