Thread of the message « Nice editor »
[Subject] Posted 11/17/2004 at 13:28 by Rembrand   This is a nice editor. Really is and certainly for freeware!!! I use it for PHP 5 now (although PHP5 code completion works only as long as code for PHP4 is entered). I think it matches other shareware editors or commercial ones without any doubt. I use it for some days now and I have to say that I like it for at least: - small footprint - clean and easy to install - stable (did NOT crash at all so far while commercial ones did) - nice configuration options because of font settings, colors on keywords, strings, vars, reserved words, symbols and other syntax related stuff. - Very nice and goodworking var/classes/function tree (left tree pane) - easy to integrate with PHP - code completion - code hints - debug results of the PHP compiler/interpreter - easy non-clutered windows when editing and switching between multiple PHP programs. I do like that tab stuff, it switches much more convenient than MDI windows. Man o man..... to program all this takes a lot of time. If you have spare time left (I hardly can imagine) you would have the BEST editor if code completion is based on a text/ascii file (now it is internal I believe). If additionaly one could also add self made code hints/examples (say up to 12 rows of small text) based on your lng files, then it is PERFECT!!!! Keep up this very good work. I think that you should sell this software as it is right now. And I'm only using it for PHP!!!! ..... not even HTML...... but I will do so within the next few weeks Regards Rembrand [Post a response to this message]  [Responses: 1 2 3 ] [top of the page] • [1/3] Posted 11/21/2004 at 13:57 by Daniel   Hi Rembrand, > This is a nice editor. Thanks > Really is and certainly for freeware!!! I use it for PHP 5 now (although > PHP5 code completion works only as long as code for PHP4 > is entered). Yes all PHP functions are not in code completion, such as "experimental" functions. If you think I forgot an important block or simple function, please let me know. > I think it matches other shareware editors or commercial ones without any > doubt.

And also it doesn't touch the register to work. > - stable (did NOT crash at all so far while commercial ones did) Yes it is stable; but the truth is there is an "anti-crash" feature within HAPedit, and this feature is working at 99,9% > - nice configuration options because of font settings, colors on keywords, > strings, vars, reserved words, symbols and other syntax related stuff. You are speaking about PHP syntax highlighting. Yes I made a big effort there and a lot of users are considering that is the best one. Some others found what is missing > - Very nice and goodworking var/classes/function tree (left tree pane) Not yet fully optimized, but it is working fast and right (for my very personnal point of view) > - easy to integrate with PHP Yes for a standard usage. In the future, I will do more: - no more settings changement to allow to work with HAPedit - different PHP versions - PHP installed over the local network It should be one of the main things of release 3.2 > - code completion As I said in HAPedit French Forum, PHP classes detection should be integrated in 3.2 Stay tuned > - code hints > - debug results of the PHP compiler/interpreter > - easy non-clutered windows when editing and switching between multiple PHP > programs.

Happy birthday HAPedit > If you have spare time left (I hardly can imagine) you would have the BEST > editor if code completion is based on a text/ascii file (now it is internal > I believe). To be fast, data are formated into a specific format. Any format error in this file and this is the "anti-crash" Anyway, I will remind your feedback about that. > If additionaly one could also add self made code > hints/examples (say up to 12 rows of small text) based on your lng files, > then it is PERFECT!!!! Please, could you be more precise; I don't understand. > Keep up this very good work. I think that you should sell this software as > it is right now. This is your opinion and I'm very happy to know it In a few words, HAPedit is my own editor for my own needs and I share it with anyone. At same the time users send me their feedback and I learn things (for my own needs) and I integrate these things in HAPedit. This is a loop, and I think a business will break this very benefit loop. Furthermore, ..., no, too much things to say > And I'm only using it for PHP!!!! ..... not even HTML...... but I will do so > within the next few weeks All the Best. Thanks for your feedback.

Another wonderful thing, and something I wish all Win apps had. Please, keep up the great work! - Chris [Post a response to this message]  [top of the page] • [3/3] Posted 11/28/2004 at 09:32 by Daniel       Hi guy, > I have to agree, I've been using it for editing ASP files and I'm amazed at > how fast and stable it is. Excellent work sir! You are welcome. >>> - small footprint >> >> I don't understand what you mean. >> > I think he means it's great that it only takes 2.7 megs of drive space. At > least that's how I took it. Oh yes; it doesn't use a lot of space on disk. The size will increase if you donwload many country languages and the add-onds. >>> - clean and easy to install >> >> Yes, the famous "Unzip&Run".
