  • 4.3pre13: Perl highlighting: autoquoting hash subscripts

    Background: In Perl, if a hash called %h has an element whose key is 'foo', you can address it in two equivalent ways: $h{'foo'} $h{foo} In the second case, 'foo' is said to be autoquoted. The bug: Create and save this file: #!/usr/bin/perl -l my %hash = (height => 2, width => 3); my $rh = \%hash; print $hash{height}; print $$rh{height}; print $rh->{height}; my...

  • 4.3pre13: Perl highlighting: subroutine declarations

    Create and save the following file: #!/usr/bin/perl -l sub a; print "This is ordinary code"; sub a { return 42; } print a; (The first `sub foo' declares a subroutine; the second `sub foo' defines it.) Everything from the first `foo' to the second `foo' is wrongly highlighted as a function name. This paragraph from perl.xml is the cause:

  • 4.3pre13: `Find' overwrites the X selection

    This bug may be specific to systems running X Window, such as Linux. It occurs with both 4.2final and 4.3pre13 on both Debian Testing (with Java 1.6.0_04) and on Ubuntu Feisty (with Java 1.5.0_11). On my systems, Quick Copy is turned off. Create a text file containing the words `foo' and `bar'. Double-click `foo', so that it's in the X selection. To confirm, middle-click a shell prompt...

  • Expanding a fold twice moves caret unexpectedly

    I'm using 4.3pre13 on Debian Testing (with Java 1.6.0_04) and on Ubuntu Feisty (with Java 1.5.0_11). I get the same results on both machines. Create the following file, and save it as test.cpp: int a = 1; void bcd() { // } void efg() { // } void hij() { // } Change the folding mode (if necessary) to `indent'. Move the caret to the `hij'...

  • Clicking the Outlook new-mail icon in the systray

    I run MS Outlook 2000 on Windows 2000 SP4. Outlook is running on desktop 0. I'm on desktop 1. New mail comes in. Outlook plants an envelope icon in the system tray. I double-click the envelope. Without Virtual Dimension running, this action would normally de-iconise Outlook if necessary and then give it the focus. With Virtual Dimension running, the system becomes a little...

  • Hotkeys for jumping to, and for sending windows to, desktops

    It would be useful to be able to define hotkeys to jump straight to a desktop. On KDE, I habitually put certain programs (or groups of programs) on the same desktop every time I run them: this lets me jump straight to them with a single keychord. It would also be useful to be able to send the current window to another desktop with a single keystroke. Many thanks, Markus.

  • Alt+Tab shows command prompts from other desktops

    Before I start, let me thank you for writing Virtual Desktop. It looks like becoming an indispensible utility for those times when I have to use Windows. I'm running Virtual Desktop 1.0 on a fully patched Win2K SP4. I've turned off the 'all windows in task list' option. I don't have any windows that are configured to appear on all windows. Suppose that a command prompt (cmd.exe or...
