AuPad - Notepad in AutoIt ; Updated - Oct 26th, 2015

[AZJIO]

Enable Display Properties large fonts. Height of menu depends on the font, which depends on the theme in the display properties.

GUICreate("AuPad", 600, 500
GUICtrlCreateEdit("", 0, 0, 600, 495

500 - 495 = 5

5 pixel width of the menu all the time?

how good can it handle large files of > 100 gigabyte?

Many professional notepads do not know how to. You're not going to write a book the size of several gigabytes?

Should I make it bigger for large fonts? Say.. 10-15 pixels at all times?

Thanks DreamVB

Definitely something to think about, will give it a look I've got the next couple days free so I'll be experimenting a lot

Hm. Maybe this would be accomplished better with GUICtrlSetResizing( controlID, $GUI_DOCKAUTO). I will give this a test today.

I'm thinking about trying out getting the size and if it is > "example size" then read in as binary or UTF16 Little Endian, which should speed this up greatly I'm hoping. I will give this a test today.

I've changed the handling of large files into reading them with binary and then converting it. It is definitely faster, but I'm not sure this will be good enough for files > 1 gig. As, AutoIt is not capable (or my ignorance thinks) of reading very large files in a quick manner. It will still work with large files, it will just take awhile to read them in. Will post an updated version with this soon

Log Viewer - it is a different type of program. You load is not the whole file, but only part of which can be viewed. When turn the scrollbar, then tip the line number. When released the scrollbar, then loads the specified portion of the file. Either you have to create an item such as GUICtrlCreateEdit, but with better properties, designed for large files. For example Scintilla.

when you close the question arises: "there has been changes to, would you like to save?". No cancel button.

1. Close button could be pressed accidentally.

2. Before saving, I wanted to correct something.

[DreamVB]

Nice update again

How about .LOG support like notepad.

It be easy to do just check the very first line for .LOG

Also for very large file support you could have a look into the Windows API WriteFile and ReadFile.

Keep up the good work. 

[AZJIO]

And what if the print standard notepad?

if FileExists ( "notepad" )

if FileGetVersion( "notepad" )

Then -> notepad /P filename.tmp

Yes?

Are you meaning make a temporary file, then print it using the printing support of notepad?

It would be very cool to transition from martin's dll print library to your RTF print library.

[DreamVB]

Nice update but I spotted some bugs

The maximize does not resize the edit box.

Also the syntax highlighting seems to note work right on large text. also noticed it will hang the app and you cannot exit.

keep up the good work it's looking better with each update.

[AZJIO]

The font size doesn't change

Date has to be inserted into a cursor position

Many features don't work
