2011-12-08 00:22:28

We've just uploaded a new build, fresh from the oven. Some bugs got squished, some features added. And oh, there's�an Update checker�now!

Added update checker. Checks for a new version at startup, or manually in Help/Check for updates. It's�in a early stage, so show it a little�love.
Added languages: Groovy, Nette/Latte and�JSON
Added “intype” folder to the ZIP package for your convenience.
Fixed issues with Project sidebar size
Fixed rendering of icons in submenus
Fixed bug causing the Save as dialog not to set the default extension
Fixed project sidebar focus bugs (Ctrl+F9 and F9)
And many other small bug fixes…

Go ahead and download the latest release.

Unicode support

First of all: Intype does support Unicode. We actually spent a lot of time and effort to make Unicode work. However, in the current version there’s�one little thing you need to do to use�it.

Intype's�text processor understands all Unicode characters, although the renderer is not able to display them as long as the font set in Edit → Preferences → Fonts does not have the glyphs. Intype is currently not able to search through installed fonts to find a correct font. Instead, it expects you to know (sad�face).

To set it up:

Go to Edit → Preferences → Fonts
Leave the primary font (the first Font combo) as it�is.
Set the first Backup font to a font that has the glyphs you need. (see List of Microsoft Windows Fonts)
Click OK

We totally agree that this isn’t a perfect solution worthy of Intype, and we are working on it! (happy�face!)

If you want to help, please let us know what fonts you recommend for your language. You can do so in the comments below, by tweeting to us or by posting to the intype-public�group.

Fixed crash when quickly pasting and undoing larger file (~13k) when grammar is�set.
Fixed crash during typing.
Fixed crash when QuickOpen is launched when there's�no project, nor recent�files.
Fixed crash in “Missing project file” message box.
Fixed bug causing editor to not get focus after opening a file from project.
Fixed bug causing line-endings being not saved correctly by the settings in statusbar.
Fixed bug causing check and radio marks not to be rendered in popup�menus.
Internal shortcuts now have higher priority than the ones from the bundles.
Finally found and fixed bug in the parser causing Intype to freeze when the line's�too long. (It was actually embarrassing…)

Download the latest release and enjoy!

That’s�right, guys. Intype’s�back! We invested a lot of time and effort to make this new version and we’re happy that Intype is getting to the 1.0�version.

The new version has over 50�new features and we’re going to write about most of them in future posts. For now, the only important thing is that we basically wrote a new editor based on your feedback from previous versions.

There are still some bugs and missing features that we’re currently working on. We’re looking forward to your ideas, bug reports or any other feedback you might have. Feel free to join us at the intype-public group or simply tweet us at @intype.

Oh, and by the way, you might want to grab a copy of the new Intype.
