7.8.7 Release Candidate 4

@donho said in 7.8.7 Release Candidate 4:

Add count of files searched to ‘Find result’ output.

So in looking at that, I must say the “…of X searched” is a nice addition.

And I hesitate to call this a critical bug, but I noticed that the singular has now become plural:

It sure seems like 1 hits should be 1 hit.
And 1 files should be 1 file.
Indeed, checking 7.8.6 it IS the singular form for this case.

What happened?
Did the addition of “…of X searched” mess this up somehow?

I just tested:

Do you use custom english.xml for changing some labels?
If yes, it’s normal - there’s no way to manage it correctly in all supported languages.

Yes.
It’s okay; I understand.
I think simply by removing the relevant lines entirely from english_customizable.xml I can go back to the way it was.
For English that should work.

Or you can just remove this entry from english_customizable.xml - the default one will be used.

Yes, I think we just said the same thing in 2 different ways. :-)

Is there any list with listing all such no-UI options? I’m asking because I have seen such hidding settings somewhere but I cannot locate them. It would be good to make and put such a list somewhere.

Good idea.
I’ll find time to create an entry in https://npp-user-manual.org/docs/preferences/

I have version 7.8.6 64-bit on Win7.
If I check auto-completion for words only for C keywords the completion is not working. If I check for functions and words, words completion is working.
I’m missing something?

@Kantor-Zsolt

from my understanding function refers to language keywords and methods where as words refers to what has been already typed.
Example:

int Foo()
{
    return 1;
}

if having Function completion you would get a completion
for int, return or long but not for Foo, where as if you use word completion you will get completion for int and Foo because
those have been already typed but you won’t get a completion for long
Does this make sense to you?

Is there a roadmap for Np++ 7.9 and v8?
