AutoIt Editor

[JustinReno]

You could do that yourself.

[martin]

Can you please help to implement "Stop Executing" (ctrl + break) command as SCITE has?

I would try adding a hot key for {BREAK} and then do ProcessClose($AutoItPID).

Thanks Martin, but how would I know to manage the current running $AutoitPID withing the Editor?

I will try and if this wont work for me I may ask help again. Thanks again!

When someone ask help it is because he needs help.

If you don't want gives help then please save your words.

[JustinReno]

Well, it would be easy to implement a break function.

Not sure if I understand your question.

the variable $autoitPID is assigned to the process which is running the script; if you search for it you will see it is used for beta and production running, so I expect you only need to add what I said, is ProcessClose($AutoiPID) whever Break is pressed.

Thanks for the help, I solved this little issue ...

EDIT: I removed some stupid things that I wrote...

I don't know what they were, but very wise. (I wish I could remove some stupid things I've done )

Well, this is my first time in autoit

I like this example amongs other examples that I have seen on this powerful scripting tool.

I hope the authour of this script may explain me how to change the script that it would support Perl script (SCILexer.dll syntax).

I have read the code and as much as I understood there some variables that the scilexer.dll distinguise languages.

I can gues that the variable $SCLEX_AU3 determine the current programing language that the utility use.

Is there anything else should be modified to support Perl (Except for the Run and Run Beta functions to run Autoit)?

Does someone please direct me exactly what the meaning of all variables that was created in the scintilla.h.au3 file.?

Best to you!

I had minor problem with error if I had closed the last tab when there was more than one tab open. I have modified the Function _RemoveDoc as below which has overcome the problem for me.

Func _RemoveDoc($iDoc)
    If $aTabs[0][0] = 1 Then Return SetError(1, 0, 0)
    GUICtrlDelete($aTabs[$iDoc][0])
    If $iDoc - 1 > 0 Then
        SendMessage($Sci, $SCI_SETDOCPOINTER, 0, $aTabs[$iDoc - 1][1])
        _GUICtrlTab_SetCurSel($tab, $iDoc - 2)
        $iOldTab = $iDoc - 1;==added by martin
    Else
        SendMessage($Sci, $SCI_SETDOCPOINTER, 0, $aTabs[1][$iDoc + 1][1])
        _GUICtrlTab_SetCurSel($tab,$iDoc - 1)
        $iOldTab = 1;==added by martin
    EndIf
    SendMessage($Sci, $SCI_RELEASEDOCUMENT, 0, $aTabs[$iDoc][1])
    _Array2DDelete($aTabs, $iDoc)
    $aTabs[0][0] -= 1
EndFunc  ;==>_RemoveDoc

There is another bug in case it is important for you.

When you do <-- (the back keyword not the left error keyword!) fast enough on the editor then the all GUI is freezing.

this line of code causing it: ~ line # 240 in 'Autoit Editor.au3'

$Col = SendMessage($Sci, $SCI_GETCOLUMN, $iPos, 0) + 1

How did you find out that it was that line? And have you got a fix for it?

If you comment this line then it will work properly.

No, I do not know how to fix it. I have tried many things. no successful.

If I will not find way to fix it then I will gave up the column/line reporting to the taskbar feature. It is realy nasty freazing problem.

and I will not be that happy too

i was thinking to work around with this case. I wanted to catch the 'back' key to handle this case outside of the while loop.

looks for me that the problem is inside the SCIlexer.dll file. but not sure.

Maybe needs to use other version of the lexer????

Please replace the SCILexer.dll

Do not use the one that came withe the AutoitEditor zip file, download version 1.75  from scintilla website.

Version 1.75 is working without this problem.

The task bar would not report current line/column unless the key will be released.

Why not replacing to version 1.75? With the hope no new regression bugs will be revealed

Hey, Love the script. But I'm trying to use it and its throwing all kinds of errors. the compiled works great but the script is giving me recreating const errors and it doesnt know $StatusBar = _GUICtrlStatusBarCreate($GUI, -1, $aText)

Unknown function name???

Could you make it bare-bones?

Can you please update it?

THanks

Until RazerM updates it, I try to keep the copy in my debugger up to date for the latest version of AutoIt so you coud use that. I also try to apply any fixes which appear in this thread. See my signature. The debugger doesn't need to be used; there is just one extra button shown on the editor to turn on the debugging features.

I can also supply it compiled so that the AutoIt version doesn't matter.

Minor problem with editor when you choose to close a file. If you select cancel the editor closes.

Fix is to this area of code, remove the line "ExitLoop" as commented.

                            Switch $iRet

Thanks yours seems to be the same, but it works. I can't seem to find how to create the scite object. Could you let me know what I need to create just the editor in a gui.

The editor window is created with the CreateEditor, which creates the editor as a child of $GUI, and InitEditor functions.
