mailing list migration

FYI,

The nedit.org domain will be moving to a new home. Most of the services
will remain available without interuption, but it will take a little
while for the mailing lists to be restored. The archives will remain
available, but new posts will not be possible from April 27, 2011.

We expect to restore the list to full operation in a few weeks, but in
the mean time pressing matters may be posted to the alternative lists
that are available at Sourceforge
(https://sourceforge.net/mail/?group_id=11005).

Summary: Smart Indent broken in 5.6

Initial Comment:
Smart Indent in 'C' (and probably other languages) was broken after the 5.5 release. Rather than
increasing indentation after a conditional, loop, or opening brace, the indentation level remains the
same. Nor does the indentation level decrease after a closing brace.

I've traced this behavior to the changes made in response to tracker #1560892. Reverting these changes
restores proper operation of Smart Indent.

To test:
1) Start nedit
2) Select Preferences -> Language Mode -> C
3) Verify Preferences -> Auto Indent -> Smart

Summary: wrong value for inactive $em_tab_dist

Initial Comment:
The help information says:

===
  $em_tab_dist
  If tab emulation is turned on in the Tabs... dialog
of the Preferences menu, value is the distance between
emulated tab stops. If tab emulation is turned off,
value is -1.

This "turned off" value is very badly chosen.

Smart indent brokenness

Hi folks... I'm new on the list, but I've been using nedit heavily since
2001.

The smart indent feature for 'C' (and probably other languages) is
broken in the so-called "5.6" release. It maintains the current level of
indentation, but doesn't automatically indent further after a
conditional or an opening brace. Until recently I've worked around this
by using the pre-compiled 5.5 releases on the website instead of the
vendor-supplied versions, but switching to 64-bit installations made
that a real pain. Today I decided to find and fix this problem.

It turns out that the changes made to address tracker #1560892 caused
the breakage. The broken commits are:

1.107  doc/help.etc
1.115  source/macro.c
1.141  source/menu.c

Removing these commits restores the previous functionality of the Smart
Indent feature.

To test:
1) Start nedit
2) Select Preferences -> Language Mode -> C
3) Verify Preferences -> Auto Indent -> Smart
4) Start entering (NOT cut-n-paste) a C program like this:

int f(int x)<ENTER>{<ENTER>

5) The broken version will leave the cursor at the left margin. The 5.5

NEdit CVS on SourceForge


NEdit seems to be back. Does anyone have a copy they can test against it
to see if there are any unauthorised changes? I can't because my copy is
rather nonstandard.

As I responded off-list to someone:

In general, NEdit isn't a very large domain, and a large part of the
traffic comes from search engine crawlers and other bots. In total,
traffic is about 4GB/month. The mailing lists are very quiet nowadays,
and storage for the archives is about 400MB. The site and the downloads
are another 170MB.

There is a Mediawiki instance which I have taken offline because it is
mostly targeted by spammers, but if you're interested in running that, a
MySQL is required. Storage isn't much.

That sounds like an interesting idea. See

hosting wanted for nedit.org

Hi folks,

I'd like to find out if anybody is able and willing to adopt the hosting
of nedit.org. The reason for this is that my company, which has been
doing the hosting for the last years, is shifting its focus away from
hosting, and the servers are going offline in the near future (april
2011 at the latest).

Requirements for runing the domain are a webserver with PHP (no
database), and a mail system with mailman. If you feel adventurous, you
can also resurrect Niki, which uses Mediawiki (the 1.16 branch, with a
MySQL database).

If you have the means and are willing to adopt the domain, please drop
me a note, or throw it on one of the mailing lists. If there are no
takers, we will archive the domain.

Niki offline

FYI,

After yet another sustained attack on Niki, the NEdit wiki, we are
forced to take it offline again. Even with the upgrades and added
security measures, the sheer number of attack attempts is putting a big
load on the server, so this time we're sorry to say it's offline for good.

We have backups of all data, so if anyone feels adventurous enough to
want to take a stab at it, let me know.
