Changes to 5.0.0 (156)

News
C++ added new keywords from 9.9 and 11 version
Cobol added 114 new keywords (GNU Cobol, Open Cobol)
For translators: resource strings was modified. In some resource strings was %s used as line break. It was replaced to \n. Take translation included in builds, not your internal. Contact me if you need more info
If no spell dictionary was choosen, PSPad will show you Spell settings dialog if you initiate Spell check

Fixes:
Wrong text file causes PSPad crash and some config content loss
Another problem causing File tab flashing was fixed
Active File Tab highlight when custom tab colors was set
Linux Shell Script - comment fix
Switch to HEX mode from new file causes exception
Fixed several untranslated strings

We notice a difference between 5.0.0 version and previous versions:

With PSPAD 5.0.0 (161) when compiling a COBOL program inside the editor (CTRL+F9), isn't possible to navigate in source code or execute any operation until compilation is completed, the editor stay 'locked' to any operation. See video: youtu.be

In previous versions the compilation ran in a 'separate thread', and the developer could continue navigating and editing the source code while waiting to finish the proccess. See video: youtu.be

Is very important to us the previous behavior because our source code are very big and sometimes the compilation takes a long time.

Thank you!

Yes there is a difference, cause old output catching was unusable. I had to replace it with different way. I will try to run compiler in separate thread, but it means big changes in code.

Crash in c++ code has been fixed!

Out of curiosity: What compiler do you use? The source doesn't look that big (under 8000 loc, don't know of the copybooks in) and the compilation takes nearly 50 seconds!

File tabs color disappeared in this build (or in one of the 2 previous ones).
Is it linked to the multi-user mode?
Where are the tabs colors stored?

Tabs color are stored in PSPad.ini
Each section for highlighter contains variable (if color is set):
FiletabColor=xxxx

Re-Posting one suggestion:
Add "*.cpy" to the standard extensions for COBOL, it is the common used file extension for COBOL copybooks and not standard-assigned to any other highlighter.

Posting one suggestion that may was added before: as another option to a language specific chm file add a language specific help site with an optional part to be replaced, maybe %keyword (the % is often found in URLs, but "%keyword" likely isn't)
Two possible examples:
* PHP --> php.net
* GnuCOBOL --> open-cobol.sourceforge.net

And one question: is there a 64bit version already, if yes, how to start it?

This functionality already exists. You can write URL into language specific file with %word% as current word replacement. See the PSPad help

Hi Human, we use isCOBOL from Veryant (www.veryant.com). Really, the source code in this example isn't so big, but we use a lot of copybooks and the compilation of our programs takes from 30 seconds to 3 minutes or more. Our developers are accustomed to continue their work while compilation run in background, this is commom in any IDE, they are arguing that wait for this is a waste of time.
