This release brings a lot of useful changes to make the editor a little bit more user friendly.
Project Management
Add a new command, "Core: Change Project Folder", to change project directory without closing the current window.
All the current opened documents will be closed.
The new command is associated with the keyboard combination ctrl+shit+c
.
A similar command is also added, "Core: Open Project Folder", with key binding ctrl+shift+o
.
It will open the chosen folder in a new window.
In addition Lite XL will now remember the recently used projects across different sessions.
When invoked without arguments it will now open the project more recently used.
If a directory is specified it will behave like before and open the directory indicated as an argument.
Restart command
A Core: Restart command is added to restart the editor without leaving the current window.
Very convenient when modifying the Lua code for the editor itself.
User's setting auto-reload
When saving the user configuration, the user's module, the changes will be automatically applied to the
current instance.
Bundle community provided colors schemes
Included now in the release files the colors schemes from github.com/rxi/lite-colors.
Usability improvements
Improve left and right scrolling of text to behave like other editors and improves text selection with mouse.
Fixes
Correct font's rendering for full hinting mode when using subpixel antialiasing.
