“Editor” is the application that helps you to edit your documents and code. It has all the features of text editor and something more. There is a list of current features and it continues to increase:

  • Toolbar near keyboard
  • Number of lines and symbols counter
  • R-only: read-only mode (disables keyboard)
  • Autosave
  • Undo\redo
  • Search
  • Tab button
  • History
  • Code highlighting (javascript, qml, python and sh languages)
  • MIME-support

The application meets all basic requirements while working with documents.

Experimental:
-There is capability of numeration of lines. But this feature is experimental one that is why it works only for NOT loaded documents.

Some tips and comments:

  • Autosave feature stores your text in special file ending with ~, located in the directory where your original file is located. Don`t be afraid to forget to save the file or accidentally exit the app!
  • Don`t open files which ending with ~. The last version of document will be loaded automatically. So load only(!) original files.

Known bugs:

  • If you want to drop your configuration file, you need to delete not only the file .json. You have to delete this folder: /home/nemo/.local/share/harbour-editor/
  • Combobox of tab can not be dynamically changed. It needs to reopen SettingsPage to see the changes.
  • Background option can not be saved.

The application is developed promptly. Follow the updates.

Hi, there is a bug in 0.7: autosave doesn't work!  open a file, type something, close editor (don't save of course), now there is the ~ file but without the last words added. (tested on jolla1)

Nice app, my default note app. I want to contribute with the french translation, if you can send it to me. It is easer for me to do with this app than on transifex.

 Here is my mail address dameceno@gmail.com

Keep up the good work man, you are appreciated

Hi DameCENO,

Thank you for your activity. If you edit translation file on the Github that will be much better for me.

Manual:

Register on Github and go to the fr translation: https://github.com/GoAlexander/harbour-editor/blob/master/translations/h...
On this page press button with the pencil "Edit this file" then change all strings with <translation type="unfinished"></translation>.

After that press "commit changes" below then there will  be something like "make pull request".

If you have any question - ask me. I am open for communication.

You can replace manually following icons:

/usr/share/icons/hicolor/86x86/apps/harbour-editor.png

/usr/share/icons/hicolor/108x108/apps/harbour-editor.png

/usr/share/icons/hicolor/128x128/apps/harbour-editor.png

/usr/share/icons/hicolor/256x256/apps/harbour-editor.png

with old icons from here:
https://github.com/GoAlexander/harbour-editor/tree/master/archive/2_icons

There is another option:

I can deploy for you special version with old icon this time but I don`t want do it each new release of Editor.

The choice is yours :)

Version 0.4.2 is published!
Some news about the development of "Editor.":
There was pause between 0.4.1 and 0.4.2 version because I have an internship in another country (France (if somebody wants to meet me in Rouen - you are welcome :) ) since January. So 2 month I can not be active in development of "Editor." :(
But...
There is good news! In my university there is new subject where we have to develop our own projects in teams. I suggested "Editor." project. So I "hired" 3 persons to the project (another one is 50/50). I hope that project will get new boost. They don`t have any experience in Sailfish OS/QML but I hope that they will do a lot for project. I will help them. I think also that we will work more with community.
Our team will try to improve "Editor." and Sailfish OS platform!

Personally I have one more motivation to develop "Editor." - I need good mark in this subject :)))

Please answer the following questions:
-What do you think about to create twitter-account for "Editor."?
-Do you want to read ALL news according to this project? Even reports for my subject?
-What do you understand under words ""Editor`s" team should work more with community"? :)

Big thanks to rabauke who commited really nice translation update.

From what I can tell (usage for like 1min) the tabulator is behaving strange. When I type and hit the tabulator buttom without a widespace the whole word gets indented. With hitting space before pressing tabulator the tabulator gets inserted after the word. Also it would be nice if the virtual keyboard would stay after pressing tabulator.

In addition I have a small feature request: Setting for expanding tabulator into multiple spaces (4 would be a nice preset for this). I'm going to use your app for the time being.

PS: Do you want bug reports here or on github?

Does not save because pulley menu doesnt engage (click on save option). I use 2.0.4.14 or 2.0.5.6 wont work for either 5.5" screen ~400dpi.

 

I should also add that i cant save because Editor program is only opened in Read mode meaning some sortof permsission error during install.

Can you name your device and SFOS`s version? Try to start app from terminal (harbour-editor) and send me what it writes. I have to undestand better your problem.

P.S. I wrote in descriptions: Warning! Because of FileManager "Editor." requres Sailfish OS version >= 2.0.5.6 (last version without this dependency is 0.2.3)!
But because of this dependency should not work buttons "Save As" and "Open". Strange behaviour on your device...

Hi :) your pulley menu is amazing: I've never seen such a beautiful pulley menu: you are great!

BTW,  I have no "Save as" bug, I've saved a document containing 1 line (1 word) and the document created isn't empty!

One last thing: if you don't write c++, you can avoid compiling it and you can run your program with the following command:

sailfish-qml harbour-editor

Try it, it works. In other word, if your program isn't written in c++, you can make one package for all architectures.

Bye :)

Hi,

thanks for feedback. It is really very important for me.
Actually this idea with pulley menu not my original. I heard about it from @osanwe. :)

"BTW,  I have no "Save as" bug, I've saved a document containing 1 line (1 word) and the document created isn't empty!"
>Hm, interesting... I will test it again. If you will find any bugs report please. Stability of app is important.

Thanks again forr this comment :)

"One last thing: if you don't write c++, you can avoid compiling it and you can run your program with the following command"
> Thanks for tip. I will mention it but app has a bit of default C++ code + in the far future maybe I will rewrite Python code in C++ to speed up the app...

Thank you! Feedback is very important for me on this stage of development. Undo/redo is planned but not soon because it is not so easy to implement.

If interesting there were buttons of undo/redo in pototypes but there was not backend. :)
