    transition to 7.6. Hopefully, it will mellow out again soon.

    i think i’m afraid not.
    there have been new complaints that, now that all plugins reside at a single, all users accessible location inside %programdata% as the active posters wished, others that were silent before want it either in a different location or the way it was in 7.6 … or the way it was in 7.5.9 … or inside of %programfiles%

      This is where real life and software development goes hand in hand - you can’t make everyone happy.

              Thank you very much for your effort but I wasn’t asking for one,
              I offered a possible solution by using the pythonscript plugin
              but maybe @rizla-kostas, the original poster, finds this useful.

                I was looking at the EOL at EOF thing and I liked the scripts presented in regards to same. However, after the script is in place…what if I WANT to create a file without the final EOL, a very occasional need maybe?

                So I came up with this few lines of code that can be inserted into the scripts, which will prevent the script from doing anything if the Alt key is held while a save is being done.

                import ctypes
                VK_MENU = VK_ALT = 0x12
                if ctypes.windll.user32.GetKeyState(VK_ALT) & 0x8000: return
                

                In practice this only works when Save or SaveAll is done via toolbar button. :)

                  I did some tests concerning the performance and memory usage about calculating whether the last line contains an eol or not.
                  I opened a ~600MB file and run the following script

                  from Npp import editor
                  import time
                  
                  start = time.time()
                  lastLineContainsEOL = True if len(editor.getLine(editor.getLineCount()-1)) == 0 else False
                  end = time.time() - start
                  print 'getLine:', end
                  
                  start = time.time()
                  lastLineContainsEOL = True if editor.getText()[-1] in '\n\r' else False
                  end = time.time() - start
                  print 'getText:', end
                  
                  start = time.time()
                  lastLineContainsEOL = True if editor.getCharacterPointer()[-1] in '\n\r' else False
                  end = time.time() - start
                  print 'getCharacterPointer:', end
                  

                  which resulted in

                  getLine: 0.000999927520752
                  getText: 2.94100022316
                  getCharacterPointer: 0.641000032425
                  

                  then I did the same test while watching the performance monitor and saw that
                  editor.getText()[-1] allocated an additional 600 MB whereas editor.getCharacterPointer()[-1] didn’t.

                  So, currently it seems that len(editor.getLine(editor.getLineCount()-1)) == 0 is the fastest and best on resources
                  whereas getCharacterPointer might be a fast way to access the buffer as long as you know what you are looking for.

                    I have sent a private apology to @Scott-Sumner, but I thought I should also make a public apology: downvotes aren’t something to joke with (or about), and my initial response (after I had seen it bothered him) was still couched in humor (and probably not very funny, at that), when it should not have had any attempts at justification or humor. I have been sorry for my poor choices on that day since I saw his response, and I have been saddened as he has stayed away for the last two weeks. I wish I knew how to make it up to him, but saying that I’m sorry is all that I know to do.

                    I highly respect Scott, and value his contributions to this forum. I hope he will come back and participate again.

                      i miss you too @Scott-Sumner and i hope you read this some day.

                      i’m sorry too for everything that happened and my failed humorous attempts to brighten up the situation.

                      i think that don didn’t even look to whom he gave this reply at that certain moment, and i know how this must feel … like a job where a 3 year “underpaid” employee, who is also probably the biggest defender and supporter of this hypothetical company, suddenly gets a “who the hell are you” from the boss.

                      please come back, or more important: we, specifically i as an individual would like to keep in contact, regardless of how, when or where.

                      thanks @PeterJones for standing up.
                      (i currently have a certain movie scene in my mind … “o captain my captain” from the movie dead poets society)
