Log Message:
Changes 3.4:
- Paragraph reformatter and word wrap now handle '*' and '-' bullet lists.
- Better internationalization (i18n)
- Multi-file search and replace
- JOE now restores cursor position in previously visited files.
- Build and grep window work more like Turbo-C: the messages window is
forced onto the screen when you hit ^[ = and ^[ -.
- Syntax highlighter definition files (.jsf files) can now have subroutines.
This eases highlighter reuse: for example, Mason and PHP can share the HTML
highlighter.
- I've changed the way JOE handles '-' and redirected input
- Many bugs have been fixed. I've tried to address every issue in the bug
tracker. Hopefully I didn't create too many new ones :-)
- You can now define which characters can indent paragraphs. Also the
default list has been reduced so that formatting of TeX/LaTeX files works
better.
- Highlighting now uses less CPU time and always parses from the beginning
of the file (the number of sync lines option is deprecated). Here is a
CPU usage comparison for scrolling forwards and backwards through a 35K
line C file:
- JOE now matches Thomas Dickey's implementation of my xterm patch (but
configure xterm with --paste64).
- File selection menu/completion-list is now above the prompt (which is more
like bash). Also it is transposed, so that it is sorted by columns
instead of rows.
- "Bufed" (prompt for a buffer to edit), works like other file prompt
commands: it's a real prompt with history and completion.
- Automatic horizontal left scroll jumps by 5-10 columns.
- New syntax files: troff, Haskell, Cadance SKILL, REXX, LUA, RUBY. Many of
the existing syntax files have been improved.
