Hello guys,

Sorry for any inconvenience. The updater doesn't work because I haven't used it to promote the new version yet. 3.50 is a stable version, but there are still tons of new features to add. I keep releasing a new version every two or three days recently and don't want to bother you guys with the "new version" dialog.

Please don't hesitate to post here or contact with me at [email protected] if you find some bugs or have any suggestions for the new version.

How does this works? Some kind of DDE? SendMessage?
In most situations it will use clipboard for better compatibility since SendMessage only work with standard controls (e.g. it's impossible to use SendMessage to get/set text for a text area on a webpage).

Can one set a different key combination? (I have no Windows key.)

Yes, you can set your own hot key in Options.

FYI, the link to the portable version download is pointing to the setup exe 8)
Fixed now. Thank you!

Channing:  there's a typo on the "Test Editor Anywhere" page. A section heading says: "Text Editor Anyehere - Edit Text Anywhere with Your Favorite Editor".
Also fixed. Thanks for your feedback!

Hello all,

I'm glad to share Text Editor Anywhere 2 with you. It used to be a built-in feature of Listary, and now is a standalone freeware app. I rewrote it from scratch and added a bunch of useful new features.

Text Editor Anywhere allows you to edit text anywhere with your favorite text editor (and with a specified file extension). It provides a means of taking advantages of some advanced features (like auto-completing, spell checking and syntax highlighting) that are only available in an external text editor. It may also save you from webpage time-out or browser crashes.

    [*]Support all kinds of text editors
    [*]Support all applications
    [*]Support Unicode
    [*]You can pass complex parameters to the editor
    [/list]

    It's very easy to use. Here is how I use it to edit this post in Firefox with BBCeditor by fenixproductions:

    Step 1: Press Win + A whenever you need it. You can hold Win key and press "A" repeatedly to choose another file extension or edit the text with a new extension. It works like Alt + Tab.

    Step 2: Edit the text in the editor.

    Step 3: Save the file and close the editor (BBCeditor here) or simply switch back using Alt + Tab, my post is already in Firefox!

    Taking a look at this today, and the first thing I notice is a keyboard shortcut conflict between Listary and Xplorer2.

    Thank you very much for the feedback. I've just made some changes. The hot keys are "smarter" now - they will only work when they need to (in Explorers and file open/save dialog for example), and won't conflict with xplorer2 anymore.

    Please download the latest version here.

    P.S. Listary can add find-as-you-type feature to xplorer2, please view this post on xplorer2 forum.


    Second thing I discovered was that I can't add my own favourites in the free edition. this is a great shame, since this feature is perhaps the one in which I am most interested, as Listary might be a replacement for my current dialog extender.

    I understand that you need to keep some features back for the commercial version, but perhaps allowing 1 or 2 user defined favourites, to see how the system works, might be a better enticement to upgrade?

    Thanks for the suggestion, I'll think about it.
