New SciTE4AutoIt3 available with updated SciTE v3.4.1

[Jos]

Sorry for not being so clear.

I meant /rm option is really good? Why should someone disable it while compiling the source?

I was suggesting to make it enable by default.

The /rm option is really a leftover of the Obfuscation process which I wanted to rip out totally in the first place.

The only reason it is still there is that the site effect of /rm is that it makes the script (much) smaller, but the downside is that it is still an obfuscation of variables & function names and has the limitations as Obfuscator had. Needless to say that this shouldn't be the default behaviour resulting in possible crippling of a script and me being bombarded again with the same questions as in the past about people getting a warning and them not understanding what it is telling them.

Well, you are right,

But please don't remove it totally, it's just nice as it's right now.

It makes variable and function name shorter, which means better performance (in AutoIt).

 

Another question.

Take a look at the following line of code please:

$oClasses.Server.Result.Invalid

Double clicking anywhere on it will select the whole line in SciTE.

In Notepad++ for example, double clicking on the word "Result" will only select the "Result", I guess dot character works as delimiter between words.

Is there any way to configuring SciTE to behave this way?

It was actually put back on request so have no intent to remove it unless at one point it is going to be an issue.

This is determined by the following parameter:

word.characters.$(au3)=$(chars.alpha)$(chars.numeric)$(chars.accented).$_@#

Thanks so much about it.

 

This is determined by the following parameter:

Well, the good news is I was able to find it in au3.properties, and the bad news is I have no clue on how to add dot to the list.

Any help would be great, thanks in advance.

[FaridAgl]

Thank you so much, It's done by removing the dot from that line.

Thanks a lot.

Edit:

Sorry for double posting, I thought forum will automatically merge my posts.

Indeed just remove any character but copy that line into your SciTEUser.properties first and make the changes there to ensure they stay.

Jos

[FaridAgl]

Good advice, I will.

Thanks.

[FaridAgl]

I feel so exciting with the new configuration, I want to go further if possible.

Numpad - will change to current line to comment, and Numpad + will toggle folding, is there any way to disable this functionality? I want them to behave normally.

Edit:

A forum search gave me this:

Thanks

Jos,

I noticed Au3Check doesn't like this:

Global Const $oTcpServer = ObjCreate("Scripting.Dictionary")

$oTcpServer.Add("Foo", "Bar")
$oTcpServer.Item("Foo") = "New value"

[jaberwacky]

Some of us may dislike having to remember to prefix our shortcut keys with alt when we wish to use the beta version of AutoIt.  If anyone wants to use the same shortcut keys for the beta version of au3 as one does for the production version then one may try this:

command.go.$(au3)="$(SciteDefaultHome)\AutoIt3Wrapper\AutoIt3Wrapper.exe" /run /beta /ErrorStdOut /in "$(FilePath)" /UserParams $(1) $(2) $(3) $(4)

command.build.$(au3)="$(SciteDefaultHome)\AutoIt3Wrapper\AutoIt3Wrapper.exe" /beta /in "$(FilePath)"

command.0.beta=Prod Run
command.0.$(au3)="$(SciteDefaultHome)\AutoIt3Wrapper\AutoIt3Wrapper.exe" /run /prod /ErrorStdOut /in "$(FilePath)" /UserParams $(1) $(2) $(3) $(4)
command.name.0.$(au3)=Prod Run
command.shortcut.0.$(au3)=Alt+F5

command.1.beta=Prod Compile
command.1.$(au3)="$(SciteDefaultHome)\AutoIt3Wrapper\AutoIt3Wrapper.exe" /prod /in "$(FilePath)"
command.name.1.$(au3)=Prod Compile
command.shortcut.1.$(au3)=Alt+F7

command.2.beta=Beta Help
command.2.$(au3)=$(SciteDefaultHome)\..\beta\Autoit3Help.exe "$(CurrentWord)"
command.name.2.$(au3)=Beta Help
command.shortcut.2.$(au3)=F1

command.3.$(au3)="$(SciteDefaultHome)\AutoIt3Wrapper\AutoIt3Wrapper.exe" /beta /AU3Check /in "$(FilePath)"
command.name.3.$(au3)=SyntaxCheck Beta
command.shortcut.3.$(au3)=Ctrl+F5

command.4.beta=SyntaxCheck Prod
command.4.$(au3)="$(SciteDefaultHome)\AutoIt3Wrapper\AutoIt3Wrapper.exe" /prod /AU3Check /in "$(FilePath)"
command.name.4.$(au3)=SyntaxCheck Prod
command.shortcut.4.$(au3)=Ctrl+Alt+F5

One might paste this into SciTEUser.properties.  One might also report back when one has encountered any problems.

$oTcpServer.Add("Foo", "Bar")
$oTcpServer.Item("Foo") = "New value"

Understand au3check doesn't want to see a constant  defined variable being updated, but au3check isn't part of SciTE4AutoIt3, but part of the AutoIt3 installer itself.

You know you only need to put the command.shortcut lines in Sciteuser.properties when you want to change the shortcuts ...right?

Hah, yeah, I just haven't posted my changes yet.  ::heh::

[jaberwacky]

Oh, ok, never mind, I see that AutoItTools.lua sets the menu items.  I was hoping to just swap everything around so that for instance, alt+f5 would run the production instead.  woops

Lesson number one: don't try to do this stuff late at night!

This code actually ensures that the Beta Tools options are only enabled when AutoIt3 Beta is installed.

So all you need to do is to use the same syntax as is used for the current setting for Beta in au3.properties.

Uploaded new Beta SciTE merged with the v 3.4.4 changes released today.

Anybody tried the new SciTE Beta and is all working as it should?

For me All is fine

I was just checking to see if that notification didn't get lost between all the other discussion that were happening at the time.

Thanks for the feedback.

Certainly not: we're following you, we're close to you, we're all sat at your table and we're thursty but politeness demands that we don't ask openly.
