Font spacing issue

If I use fixed-width font (i.e. Droid Sans Mono) that does not have bold version in separate file, some kind of automatic weighting is done, and spacing between regular and bold font is ruined. This is obviously undesirable when user selects fixed-width font:

If selected monospaced font that does have separate file for bold version, spacing is correct as anyone would expected, (i.e. Courier New):

This observation is valid also for proportional fonts, although obviously more problematic for monospaced fonts

Moving tabs around

Greetings!

I use SciTE on both Windows XP and Debian Linux, and for the most
part, the two are compatible; everything that I want to achieve, I can
do in either. There's just one small difference that occasionally gets
in the way, and that's dragging tabs around to re-order them.

On Windows, tabs can be reordered by simply dragging them around. On
Linux, this does not appear to be possible. Is there a config setting
that will enable this, or is the feature simply not available?

Running SciTE with file parameter won't load last session

Hi,
is there an option to force loading last session on every SciTE launch? It actually loads session, but not always - if you open scite with parametr it won't load last session. Even worse it overwrite the session on next exit. The use case is:

a) normal behaviour
cmd: scite.exe
Last session is loaded, new files can be added to session and session is saved.

b) current (annoying) behaviour
cmd: scite.exe foo.txt
Last session is not loaded, only foo.txt is displayed in edit pane and last session is overwritten with current session.

c) expected behaviour
cmd: scite:exe foo.txt
Last session is loaded, foo.txt is added at the end of the buffer and session is saved on next exit.

It would be great to get scite from b) to c).

Thanks
Vlastimil Ovcacik

SciTE 3.0.3 released

   SciTE 3.0.3 is now available from the scintilla.org web site.

   SciTE 3.0.3 is a minor bug fix release.

   Printing works on GTK+ version 2.x as well as on 3.x.

   Actions performed on background threads work even on GTK+ versions
before 2.12.

   Other changes were made and bugs fixed. A detailed list of changes
is available on the history page.
http://www.scintilla.org/ScintillaHistory.html

   There should be a 3.0.3 release of the commercial OS X version but
that will depend on when/if it is approved by Apple.

   SciTE uses Mercurial (Hg) for source code control. The repositories
can be cloned with
hg clone http://scintilla.hg.sourceforge.net:8000/hgroot/scintilla/scintilla
hg clone http://scintilla.hg.sourceforge.net:8000/hgroot/scintilla/scite

   Thanks to the contributors of code and documentation and to the testers.

   Neil

Selection drag and drop takes too much time on first try

On Ubuntu, when I select some text than try to drag selection, it
takes around 3-4 sec pause for SciTE to figure operation in which time
CPU is maxed. That is on first try, and after that selection drag&drop
works as expected. Till the next restart of course

Calltips for different syntaxes in same lexer

I'm learning XML and in spare time adjusting SciTE as much as possible to be great environment to me for XML processing. When I finish, I'll present my adjustments althogether with API files created from scrapping w3.org references, abbreviations, help resources...

One thing that got me stopped is this: SciTE calltips are defined for particular lexer and XML lexer "holds" calltips also for various XML extensions - XSLT, XPath functions, XQuery... and they have different formal syntaxes.

For example, XPath functions and operators use common format with braces:

op:intersect(param1, param2)

while XSLT does not use braces, but parameters are separated by space:

xsl:value-of select=expression

if we consider "select=expression" as parameter, or equal sign if we consider "xsl:value-of select" as keyword.

In either case they differ from XPath, XQuery functions/operators which are part of XSLT.

So problem is that I can't define "calltip.xml.parameters.start" for both XPath function and XSLT keywords as they belong to same lexer.

Is there a way to do this?

Newbie confused about brace matching

I have been using SciTE 3.0.2 for just a few hours, and I am confused
about brace matching.

I am a retired IT support guy, and I mostly use XP batch files, *nix
shell scripts, and KiXtart scripts.

While looking at some of my .bat and .sh files, I noticed a batch file
where the brace matching does not seem to work correctly.

To make sure I have my batch coding correct, I used the following
command in a Command Prompt window:
C:\TEMP\test>if /?

I took the following sample code from the above command output and
created 3 files: test.bat, test.sh, and test.txt.

IF EXIST filename. (
    del filename.
) ELSE (
    echo filename. missing.
)

ONLY test.bat does not show the 2nd set of braces as matched (braces
are red).

(I also tested all 32 entries under the Language Bar and only Batch
and XML to not show the 2nd set of braces as matched.)

But, this code works correctly:

IF EXIST filename. (
    del filename.
) ELSE (
    echo filename. missing. )

Questions

#1: Am I not understanding brace matching in batch files?  A bug?

#2: What is the default Language associated with creating a New file?
Or a file without an extension?

#3: Can the Language used be added to the Status Bar?

#4: What is the "Properties" Language?

Thanks,
Mike

XP/SP3, SciTE 3.0.2 (I have not edited/changed any files associated
with SciTE.)

How to run two instance of SciTE?

Sometimes I work with "protected" system files on Ubuntu, and would
like to be able to save changes, so I add tools action "gksudo ../path-
to/scite $(FilePath)" in SciTE properties. However when I run it
nothing happens. Command is executed, I enter my password, then
command exits cleanly with exit code 0, so I guess I'm just redirected
to running instance.

Is there any way I could make this work?
If not, are there any known tips for modifying this "protected" files
by using SciTE, while regular SciTE instance is running?

Read-only state sticking after Save All

   There is a bug in 3.0.2 where the Save All command can lead to
buffers that can not be changed. This was due to retrieving the
read-only state from Scintilla when it had been set temporarily for a
background save. A simple way to provoke the behaviour is to open two
files; modify one; switch to the other; modify it; perform Save All;
can no longer change either file. A fix that stores the logical
read-only state for each buffer in the Buffer class has been committed
to Hg but it would be good to see this checked. The patch is
http://scintilla.hg.sourceforge.net/hgweb/scintilla/scite/rev/1f35de45a50e

  Available from Hg and from
http://www.scintilla.org/scite.zip  Source
http://www.scintilla.org/wscite.zip Windows executable

   I hoped that this was also involved in another problem where files
were not saving but that now appears unrelated.
