Notepad++ v7.2.2 released

Ashish Agrawal

Previously unsaved files were maintained on closing on NP++. Now when I close NP++, I must save file!
Unsaved files was great way for me to maintain my quick notes.

Any reason to have that functionality removed?

@Ashish-Agrawal

please check settings-preferences->backup
Is enable session and snapshot… checked?

Is there an issue with “remember last used directory” in the “Default Directory” settings? It simply never works. Sometimes it resets itself to the first/default setting (follow current document), but other times, it doesn’t remember the last used directory even if selected. Issue persisted before 7.2.2.

Using 7.2.2 :

I convert a text file “new1.txt” to shell file “new.sh” (menu language => S => Shell)

The text file work fine :
export mytest=bbb
if [ “${mytest}a” == “testa” ]
then
echo mytest ${mytest}
else
echo mytest is not test : ${mytest}
fi

After conversion in *.sh :

In the rigth place a “column” has added (on the left “number line” column).

Sometimes the shell file was corrupted has :

mexport mytest=bbb
mif [ “${mytest}a” == “testa” ]
mthen
mecho mytest ${mytest}
melse
mecho mytest is not test : ${mytest}
mfi

How to remove the added “column” ?

This feature works fine in 7.2.1

you do not change file content while selecting the shell lexer.
This just means that this lexer does the coloring of the current document.
From what I see I assume that you’ve saved the file with windows eols and
then transferred the file to unix machine but you didn’t do a eol conversion.

Could this be?

Claudia, is my issue reproducible or am I posting to the wrong forum? Just wanted to follow up on my comment…

Why do I open the file location to use Notepad + +, but did not appear in the open file location?

@Tamar-Weinberg

normally I don’t have this setting activated but from my tests I can’t reproduce reported behavior.
Which leads to two question.
Do you have a different expectation or is your setup much more different as mine?

From the setting I expect that every open file dialog, except the first one, opens
in the last selected directory of that dialog. The first one should open in notepad++ directory.
Is this your expectation as well? If so, there must be something else interfere.
In this case, how does your setup look like?
Which operating system, current npp version installed plugins - all can be gathered by menu
?->debug info. Maybe give it a try to run npp without plugins ( just rename plugins directory)

What confuses me about your post is,

It simply never works.

used together with

Sometimes it resets itself to the first/default setting (follow current document), but other times, it doesn’t remember the last used directory

I don’t want to act like a smartass, it is just that I don’t know what the problem really is,
because it can either never work or sometimes it is reset… but not both (or even all three).
We need to get as much detailed information as possible in order to be able to help.

@Claudia-Frank

The “first” text file was in LF (Linux) end of line format.
The simili column appear only when i choosing the syntax coloring shell lexer.
I will try to reinstall notepad++ and the plugins.

Thanks for you reply (and Happy New Year !!)

as I’m currently working on a linux environment it’s easy to test but
it looks ok for me.
