line-number bar in text viewer
Hi!
In the text viewer it would be nice if we have a line-numbers bar - to help software developers! Thanks

Re: line-number bar in text viewer
For such special text features I use Scite as alternative Viewer / Editor: small, fast, no installation, text highlighting, and much more.nistvan_ro wrote:[...] to help software developers

Re: line-number bar in text viewer
Yes, for editing text-like files I use other than notepad.exe editor (in my case I use other great Czech editor PsPad )KNUT wrote: For such special text features I use Scite as alternative Viewer / Editor: small, fast, no installation, text highlighting, and much more.
But I strongly agree with nistvan_ro to add line-numers bar into the View, because the viewer in Salamander is pretty fast
I use F3 as a quick view.

Re: line-number bar in text viewer
We want to re-write the internal text viewer from the scratch. Support for unicode, utf, syntax highlighting, line numbers, caret for keyboard selection, separate it to plugin, etc. It's a very high priority for us, but it will take from 4 to 6 monthsino wrote:But I strongly agree with nistvan_ro to add line-numers bar into the View, because the viewer in Salamander is pretty fast

Is there a possibility to include Scite as a "text viewer / editor" plug in?Jan Rysavy wrote:separate it to plugin
It prevents you from rewriting the viewer from the scratch.
Scite (Scintilla) is open source - isn't it!?!?
Kind regards, KNUT

Re: line-number bar in text viewer
Probably it would be possible, but I can say that it loads a bit slow if you're using it just for viewing. And I have a P4 with 1Gigs of ram... Still good idea 'though.KNUT wrote:Is there a possibility to include Scite as a "text viewer / editor" plug in?Jan Rysavy wrote:separate it to plugin

Re: line-number bar in text viewer
SciTE is a text editor. Servant Salamander's internal viewer is highly optimized for speed (even on files over 4GB barrier).KNUT wrote: Is there a possibility to include Scite as a "text viewer / editor" plug in?

In the meantime, I recommend V... a great text viewer:
http://www.fileviewer.com
It isn't free, but isn't over-priced, either, and has many useful features. Supports EBCDIC!
Don't be put off by the dull screen shots... all colors are adjustable.

Go to line
In the mean time, would it be possible to implement a "Go to line number" function? Even Notepad can do that.
The whole line could be selected to show the exact line.
