Birchpad 0.1.3

Added

• Search modes as in Notepad++: Extended (\n, \t, \x41, ...) and regular expressions
  with back-references and look-around; replacements with $1, \1, ${name} and case
  conversion (\U, \L, \u, \l).
• The find panel has Find, Replace and Mark tabs: Count; Replace All in the selection or in all
  opened documents; Mark All with Bookmark line and Purge for each search, Clear All Marks and
  Copy Marked Text. Search > Mark... (Ctrl+M), Select and Find Next / Previous (Ctrl+F3,
  Ctrl+Shift+F3).
• The search results panel, as in Notepad++: Find All in Current Document and in All Opened
  Documents list the lines with matches; double-click or F4 and Shift+F4 go to them, F7 shows or
  hides the panel.
• Results can be removed from the search results panel one by one: Delete, or Remove in its
  right-click menu, takes out the selected line, document or search, and the heading counts
  what is left. The menu also copies the selected line or path, folds and unfolds everything,
  and clears the list.
• Incremental search, as in Notepad++ (Search > Incremental Search, Ctrl+Alt+I): a bar that
  finds the text while it is typed, Enter and Shift+Enter for the next and previous match,
  Match case, Whole word, and Highlight all, which marks and counts every match.
• Go Back and Go Forward (Search menu; Alt+Left and Alt+Right, Ctrl+- and Ctrl+Shift+- on
  macOS) return to the places the caret jumped from: other documents, search results, Go To.
  A closed file opens again.
• Side panels docked beside the documents, as in Notepad++: several on one side share it as
  tabs, the View and Edit menus open and close them, and the open ones come back on the next
  start. The first is Document List (View > Document List): the open documents with their
  paths; click to show one, middle-click to close it, click a heading to sort.
• Function List (View > Function List): the classes, functions, methods and sections of the
  document as a tree, from its syntax tree, for 28 languages including Markdown headings. It
  follows edits, highlights the definition the caret is in, goes to a definition on a click,
  and can be filtered, sorted by name and folded.
• Folder as Workspace (File > Open Folder as Workspace..., or drop a folder on the window): folders
  as trees beside the documents, kept current as files come and go; double-click to open a
  file. Its menu copies paths and names, runs Find in Files in a folder, and opens the file
  manager or a terminal there. A folder on the command line opens there too.
• Project Panels 1 to 3 (View > Project): projects of folders and files, kept in Notepad++'s
  .workspace files so that workspaces move between the two editors, built from each item's
  right-click menu and saved as soon as they change.
• Clipboard History (Edit > Clipboard History): the texts copied in Birchpad and other programs,
  newest first; double-click one to paste it.
• Character Panel (Edit > Character Panel): the 256 values of the document's code page with
  their characters and HTML entities; double-click to insert one.
• Document Map (View > Document Map): the whole document in miniature in its syntax colors,
  with the part on screen framed; click or drag on it to scroll there.
• Find in Files (Ctrl+Shift+F): Find All and Replace in Files in the files of a folder, with
  Notepad++'s filters (*.rs *.toml !*.bak !\target !+\node_modules), In all sub-folders, In
  hidden folders and Follow current doc. Open documents are searched with their unsaved changes
  and replaced in their tabs, where Undo works; other files keep their encoding, byte order mark
  and line endings. Binary files are skipped. Stop ends a long search with the results so far.
• A middle click on a tab closes it, as in Notepad++
  (#9).
• Change history, as in Notepad++: a margin marks the lines changed since the document was
  opened, orange until they are saved, then green
  (#11). editor.change-history = "off"
  turns it off.
• Split view by dragging a tab: dropped on the right or bottom third of the text, it opens in
  the other view beside or below (#12).
  With Ctrl, or for the only tab, the document is cloned there; with Ctrl, a tab dropped in the
  other view is cloned too.

Changed

• Ctrl+Alt+I opens Incremental Search, as in Notepad++; iNVERT cASE no longer has a shortcut
  (Notepad++ has none for it) and stays in Edit > Convert Case to.

Fixed

• The close button of a tab closed a document with unsaved changes without asking, losing them;
  it asks now, as File > Close does.
• JSON keys are colored as keys, no longer like the strings
  (#10), and TOML keys no longer take the
  color of table names.
• Dialogs that ask for a name or a path (the Project Panels' Add New Project, Rename and Add
  Folder, and the dialog used when the system's file dialog is not available) put the focus in
  their field with its suggestion selected; typing went nowhere until a click in the field.
• File > Load Session... and -openSession read a Notepad++ session.xml that an editor saved
  with a byte order mark; it was taken for Birchpad's format and refused as damaged.
• SQL numbers are colored as numbers; they never were, as the grammar's query looked for them
  with a pattern that matches no number.
