Hi Simon, Something much worse must have changed since my longstanding filter was working OK. Such external replace list files no longer work when the search type is Perl . They only work when the search type is Exact . NB. This bug seems to occur only when the replace list filter is a subfilter of ...

One of my very old filters no longer works properly. It calls an external replace list (tab delimited file) in which most of the PCRE search text items are wrapped between \Q...\E Has something changed recently for \Q...\E in PCRE ? I currently have TextPipe Standard 10.7.2 installed. IIRC, it was w...

Installed TextPipe 10.7.2 today.

Did you know that Help About shows it as TextPipe Standard 10.7 x32 Single User Edition ?

i.e. The version has not been incremented!

When I use the variable @inputFile@ the last character of the filename is missing!

e.g. For a file called 01Gen01.htm the variable @inputFile@ gave only 01Gen0.

I think this is a software bug.

The same issue affects the equivalent @Filename@.

Unicode 11.0 was released by the Unicode Consortium on 2018-06-05.
See https://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode11.0.0/

Which is the latest version of Unicode that TextPipe supports ?

Best regards,

In TextPipe 10.7 any row can be edited in Windows Shell Extensions, but there are still significant issues with the UI.

I have therefore added a separate post.

Hi Simon, I installed TextPipe 10.7 earlier today. I have tested Normalize to NFC and Normalize to NFD on some suitable input files. So far, I've not come across any problems, so I think this longstanding critical issue may well be fixed. I'll probably test these filters on further data sets as time...

Hi Simon, I installed TextPipe 10.7 earlier today. One still cannot easily select a single row and move it while editing Windows Shell Extensions . The row selection highlight still seems to be between rows. Moving the selection by drag & drop moved two rows. There are further critical bugs in this ...

Hi SImon, Then even the Windows view of which ANSI characters are word characters is faulty, seeing as ñ (U+00F1 aka \xF1) is within the decimal range 0-255 and it's not a punctuation mark! I'll try with the \b suggestion when I get time - having read what this does; I've not made use of this before...

Thanks Simon, That's good news at last. CombiningMarks and NonSpacingMarks should never be removed as part of Unicode Normalization . btw. Am I correct in assuming that these are just alternative names for Combining Diacritical Marks and Spacing Modifier Letters ? Those would include the Unicode blo...

This is in the context of using the Replace list filter with Pattern (perl) as find type. My tab-delimited external Replace list contains this as one of the many lines: \xF3 o It's designed to replace the accented letter "ó" by the unaccented letter "o" and is set to apply with Match case , Find who...

Hi Simon,

Anything on the horizon for this longstanding critical problem?

Best regards,

David
