== 1.21 (r3918) to 1.22 (r4426) -- Status: 2021-03-15 ==
[[PageOutline]]

== To be completed. Status: http://trac.netlabs.org/nepmd/changeset/4221 ==


=== Keyword help ===

- ''Reworked''.

- Allow to specify a ''mode'' instead of extensions.


=== Syntax expansion and coding styles ===

Improvements mainly for ''mode C''.


=== Load and highlight found strings ===

- Many ''fixes''.

- Added ''!GoToLineStr'' and ''!DialogLoadFile''.

- The ''Ctrl key'' has to be pressed together with selecting buttons to open
  files in a ''new window''.


=== Startup ===

- Workaround added for ''improper arg parsing'' of the EPM executable. Now
  the args from the loader are submitted when required.

- Improved ''screen updates''.


=== Edit ===

- Added support for the ''Ctrl key'' to open a file in a new window.

- Added ''@!FileList'' option instead of a filename. The contained lines in
  such a file list are processed as if they were execued submitted to EPM
  consecutively. That allows for submitting longer lists that otherwise won't
  fit into a OS/2 command line (259 resp. 1023 chars).

- Completely ''reworked''.

- Fixed ''parsing'' of '=' char and quotes.


=== Search dialog ===

- Select also those options properly that were added to Warp 4, e.g. ''t''
  and ''b''.
  
- Added ''o'' = automatic case option to open the Search dialog with the
  mode-dependent case value. Made this option default.

- Split into ''Search dialog'' and ''Replace dialog''. The new Search
  dialog is just a Replace dialog with emptied Replace field. It also
  ensures that the Change actions are disabled, as long as the replace
  field remains empty. Changed key definitions a bit for that.

- After search, set the ''focus'' to the edit window to make its accelerator keys
  work for !FindNext etc. Ctrl+F resp. Ctrl+R (or Alt+F6) can be used to set 
  the focus to the search dialog.

- Many more ''fixes''.


=== !NepmdInfo ===

- Display the data for the ''correct loader executable''.


=== URLs ===

- Improved URL recognition.


=== Alt+1 ===

- Added support for pressed ''Ctrl key''. Ctrl+Alt+1 now opens a file under
  the cursor in a new window. Added the same for Ctrl+MB_1_double-click.

- ''Reworked''.

- Avoid searching an ''entire volume'' in some situations. The search in a
  tree has now limited and variable depth, depending on the depth of the
  start directory.


=== !ShiftLeft and !ShiftRight ===

- Avoid ''removing chars at the left''. Suggested by Lars Erdmann.

- Handle ''block mark'' correctly.


=== Menu ===

- Improvements of the ''Preferences'' popup menu. 

- Configure extended ''scroll position options''.

- Configure Search dialog: Optionally automatically activate ''Marked area''
  if a multi-line mark exists.


=== Syntax highlighting ===

- Use ''red error messages'' in SHELL.


=== Tags ===

- Many ''fixes''.

- 'Mode C'': Use a slower, sloppier method if the first pass hasn't found
  anything.
  
- ''Mode E'' additions.


=== !RecompileNew ===

- Ignore all ''RCS keywords'' in file comparison.


=== Assist ===

- Support ''LaTeX environments''.

- ''Many fixes''.

- Improvements for ''mode E'' with parentheses.


=== Spell checking ===

- Many ''fixes''.


=== Position restore ===

- Added again many improvements to avoid ''unwanted scrolling''.


=== Syntax expansion ===

- Fixes for mode C.

 
=== Mode ===

- Saving files now saves the EPM.MODE EA, if mode determination for the new
  name won't lead to the previous mode. That is useful for SHELL files.


=== Format ===

- Simplified soft wrap commands.


=== Code ===

- Changed ''!NepmdQueryConfigValue'' and ''!NepmdWriteConfigValue'' to handle
  both string and binary values.
  
- Added ''!NepmdGetNextProfileApp'' and ''!NepmdGetNextProfileKey''.

- Allow for ''aligning of messages in TMF files'' by stripping spaces.

- Changed ''line comment string for TMF files'' to ";--" in column 1.

- Reworked ''initialization''.

- Make: Added support for 4os2 and touch again.

- Make: Extended pseudo targets for .inf files.


=== Installation ===

- Mark the EPM executable mp unsave on ''SMP systems'' during installation.
  That avoids crashes and display isses on scrolling. Standard EPM bug
  reported by Andy Willis. Now EPM is usable on SMP systems again.

- Added ''ArcaOS folder icons'' by David Graser and use them automatically
  for ArcaOS.


=== Settings ===

- ''Split mode settings'' into hilite and mode settings. Renamed mode
  directory to hilite.

- Added support for ''<mode>:<filemask>'' (instead of <mode>) setting keys.

- Improved ''export'' of settings.

- Improved support of ''EPMKWDS.*'' files for highlighting.

- Moved ''mode settings'' from MODECFG.E and <mode>\DEFAULT.INI to
  DEFAULTS.CFG (NEPMD.INI).

- Improved templates to ease ''tool options configuration'', e.g. for wget.

- Fixed setting source for ''virtual files''.

- Reenabled ''empty values''. Fixes e.g. persistent switching to standard EPM
  keyset.
