      Find in Files much enhanced, thanks. A much needed option to turn off recursice searches.

      However, as with the previous version, if I search for a word using *.* filter in a folder containing many sub folder, it uses up all my available RAM.
      For instance, in a folder with 232 folders, 658 files, 269MB in total, I serached for one word, *.*, all sub-folders and match case. Notepad++ used 604,468K peak and is now, as I write, still using 524,260K.
      It did find the words.

      Looks like memory is not being released as it is being used. Have to now close Notepad++ to get my memory back.

      As I say, this happened in the previous Notepad++.

      System is Win2K SP4, up to date. Opteron 185 dual processor, 2GB RAM, SCSI hard disks.

      Hi Don Ho, can you please update the Import/Export session dialog to force creation of the .session extension and display by default only .session files.
      Eventually it would be nice to have .session files associated with Notepad++ to enable quick swichting between different projects.

        I'll think about it.

      Hi

      Thanks for this new version.
      I have found a bug with ctrl+maj + down arrow
      It seems not working pretty good, please try it and if you doesn't have the same problem I will try to be more explicit.

      Thanks

          Hi

          It's not ok for me on two computer. Try with this text

          library IEEE;
          use IEEE.std_logic_1164.all;
          use IEEE.numeric_std.all;

          entity syncram is
            generic (

          Let the cursor on line1 column 0 ans try to move the first line in last line using ctrl+shift+down arrow. The result is

          use IEEE.std_logic_1164.all;
          use IEEE.numeric_std.all;
          library IEEE;
          entity syncram is
            generic (

          When you are doing action it is fine until line 3 but at next time cursor move down without the text library IEEE, then after it the empty line which is moved.

          I hope that you will be able to reproduce this problem.

            Ok, now I see the problem.

            The problem comes from Scintilla, I'll check if it is due to my modification in this component.

      Ctrl+maj+ down arrow works fine with me

      Thanks for Notepad++. The Computer Science students were awed and impressed by your editor. Notepad++ was installed as the default text editor for all 200 seats in the student computer lab. The Java students were especially thankful.

      Find dialog: all the input field histories are not being remembered between sessions.

        Find dialog's settings are not saved between the sessions.

          >Don
          Could they be?
          Please?
          I often repeat searches between sessions, use the same filters and very often use the same folders. It would  be much more convenient not to drill down into the partition/folder structure of my disk to get to the same folder every time.

          It is a trivial job to store the Find dialog field histories in the config.xml file (or elsewhere).

          Thanks

      Following on from my report (top of the list) on memory usage in Find in Files. I can confirm that my XP Home laptop using the same folder on my main PC over the LAN also uses all available memory (though more slowly probably because it is a slower system) and has to be aborted in Task Manager. CPU usage is anything from 10% to 100%.

      As such recursive folder searches is totally unusable, sorry.

        I have one better solution : don't use it.

        Don

          I don't, I use FindInFiles instead which doesn't use all my memory in less than 2 minutes!

          I thought the idea of releasing an RC here is for testing and comments from users. If you don't like the user feedback, and quite frankly from your replies in this thread so far, you obviously don't, then don't tell us in the forum an RC is available inviting comment!

            I apolgize for the brutal answer.

            You can try NppSearchInFiles plugin, which may meet your need.
            DL here :

              Apology accepted - I'll strike it up to a bad day :-)

              Don't get me wrong, I greatly appreciate the work you do and after trying countless editors Notepad++ is the only one that fully suits my needs and doesn't have the nasty debilitating bugs of PSPad and others.
              Please accept all comments here in the spirit they are meant - to help you continue to make Notepad++ the best editor out there!

              By the way, by FindInFiles I meant SearchInFiles plugin, I've been working with Jose on a few bugs with that.

                Hi Mark,

                Just want to let you know that Find in files memory consuming problem is fixed.
                This correction will come with v4.1.1 (release planing this weekend).

                Thank you for the bug report.

                Don

      Hello Don,

      I have a display problem with my file tabs. Steps to reproduce:

      - Open some files until the file tabs aren't fit into the tabs area.
      - Close some files until the tabs fit again into the tab area.
      Result: Inactive tabs aren't shown.

      Best Regards
      Jens

        Yes, it's a known bug.
        Unfortunately, I have no idea for this bug.
        If anyone in here has the solution, please let me know.

        Don

      Couple of problems with the new version

      1. Find in Files results are not wrapped

      2. Incremental Search looks out of place. Maybe it can be docked?

      3. Would be great if Find/Search Replace could be docked too in future versions

      Also, it'd be great if there is a snippets plugin in future versions.
