New version of HTML Tag

rdipardo

Note

Since v1.2, 64-bit versions of HTMLTag require Notepad++ 8.3 or newer.

1.3.6 is the first version that will survive the deprecation of Scintilla’s non-*FULL APIs. This comes with no loss of backward-compatibility with N++ versions older than 8.4.3.

Using N++ 8.4.1 and newer in dark mode will dynamically change the style of About dialog:

Now that 7-zip has begun preserving the Zone.Identifier file attribute (as the builtin Windows utility has always done), the README has been updated with a guide to unblocking manually downloaded DLLs. Zipballs will no longer contain the (useless) HTMLTag.ini file.

@rdipardo Hi, the site (https://bitbucket.org/rdipardo/htmltag/) unavailable. Can you send me the plugin or upload to other host, like Github?

Thanks.

It is available when I try it.

@Alan-Kilborn Possible that non available from Hungary? All pages from https://bitbucket.org domain crash, but Atlassian other pages, like Trello works fine.

Can you upload a zip and send me a link?

Thanks.

@Magyar-Egy,

Are you in a geographic area that blocks access to certain domains? (If so, are you sure that — Microsoft’s — GitHub is on the whitelist?)
Have you tried installing the plugin with the Plugins Admin utility that comes with Notepad++?

@Magyar-Egy,

Possible that non available from Hungary?

For what it’s worth, I can reach it without a problem from the Tor Browser while behind a Hungarian IP address.

@rdipardo Thanks, i reached it from mobile network. i do not understand why, but wired internet connection can not reach Bitbucket. WTF? :S Maybe our firewall blocked this domain (i no use user configured firewall, only that has in ASUS router)? I’ve never seen like this before.

Note to users — versions 1.3.5 - 1.3.6 are affected by a recent breaking change to N++'s graphics rendering subsystem. See my bug report for details and a temporary workaround.

A GitHub mirror is now online at https://github.com/rdipardo/nppHTMLTag

It seems Bitbucket recently put more of its web UI behind authentication, so anonymous bug reports are no longer possible. As backup, the GitHub mirror now has its own issue tracker.

If you’re using a released version (including the most recent 1.3.7), you’ll still be pointed to Bitbucket by clicking the “Bugs” hyperlink in the About dialog.

Localizations

A future version of HTMLTag will feature a localized menu, e.g.,

The implementation is ad hoc since there are no plugin APIs exposing the user’s native language preferences. I may try pitching some new APIs upstream before an implementation is finalized.

In the meantime, there are some boilerplate translations in version control that could benefit from proofreading by native speakers; PRs adding missing languages are also welcome.

New Release

The latest version adds emoji (en/de)coding and options to decode as you type.

Breaking Changes

The shortcuts Ctrl+T and Ctrl+Shift+T have changed to Alt+T and Alt+Shift+T, respectively
The default file path of the entities character mappings is now <NPP_Install_Dir>\plugins\Config\HTMLTag\entities.ini.

If you want to keep using an older entities file, rename it to match the above path, and change 4 to 5 in the HTML section:

[HTML 5]
;[HTML 4]

Note: the HTMLTag subfolder is the same for all target CPUs; there is no _unicode suffix for 32-bit versions

New Patch Release

By urgent request, the latest version adds a command to select matching tags, enabling synchronized tag renaming, similar to VS Code.

By urgent request,

My “urgent request” and thank you for promptly adding this feature. Certainly not expected to be this quick, but you are a very talented and dedicated developer and I do appreciate your commitment to Notepad++ and supporting the plugin ecosystem.

This will certainly make my workflow (currently involves creating / editing XML schemas and docs) much easier as the tags update and change in the flux of this development period and auto-selecting the matching tags (sometimes far away in the document and nested) for renaming saves so much manual time.

Cheers.
