Python console, Goto line appears to have stopped working

Anthony Blinco

Previously my python console output would allow the user to click on console line and it would goto the line in the text file. This no longer appears to be the case.
My console output looks like this;

File "E:\WIN\VCOPY\FSFDITEM.PD", line 14,            PERFORM LOAD-VITMCRD
File "E:\WIN\VCOPY\FSFDITEM.PD", line 43,                   PERFORM LOAD-VITMCRD
File "E:\WIN\VCOPY\FSFDITEM.PD", line 57,            PERFORM LOAD-VITMCRD
File "E:\WIN\VCOPY\FSFDITEM.PD", line 65,        LOAD-VITMCRD.

I believe the newish Scintilla components that have been integrated into Notepad++ recently have broken this. The Python console window is (again, I believe) a Scintilla window.

It’s nothing Notepad++ itself can fix. I’d guess that the PythonScript developers are aware of this issue and are working on it, and they may need a released Notepad++ with THIS CHANGE integrated before something can be released in PythonScript to fix the console.

By the way, the PythonScript version you are using is incompatible with the Notepad++ version you have. I’d have thought the recent version testing “compatibility thing” would have caught this and refused to load the plugin for you, but apparently this isn’t happening.

@alan-kilborn Thank you very much. I will investigate

It’s already been reported to the PythonScript devs: https://github.com/bruderstein/PythonScript/issues/234
