where can i find informations about all versions of notepad++ what's new?
-
hello every one.
i wish to know informations about all new features, changes and bug fixes in all versions of notepad++.
however, notepad++ change.log includes only informations about the version which i have.
for example: if i download and use version 7.8, in program files, notepad++ change.log, i can only read informations about version 7.8, (not previous versions).
where can i read such informations about all notepad++ versions in one file or one web page?
i appreciate your help, God bless you! -
@zahra-a
There is no such file. The only way to get this information
is to clone the repo and list the commit history. -
Probably you are talking about the information that a collection of all of the “change.log” files (that come with every release) would provide?
I have collected that information into one file, since 2015; it is currently 800 or so lines, I could post it here if it is of interest.
-
I got two upvotes about it, so I suppose that means there is interest in me posting it? :-)

That’s all, folks!
Well, it’s not “all”, but it is all I’ve got.
I certainly have not been using Notepad++ since its birth. -
Thank you for taking the time and effort to post this :-)
-
@Ekopalypse said in where can i find informations about all versions of notepad++ what's new?:
Thank you for taking the time and effort to post this :-)
Sure, not much time or effort involved, as I already had the data! :-)
-
but you had to post in several posts, for me as a lazy person that would have already been the exit point. :-D

I wonder if this is worth a full page on @PeterJones Npp User Manual site?
Cheers.

It would be technically possible.
It would have more weight behind it if someone other than me were to make an official npp-usermanual request on github… especially a normal user like @zahra-ayat , rather than a frequent contributor to the forum.

First, PJ will not appreciate it being called his site. :-)
Second, it might be worthy, but if judged to be so, then I would recommend a more rigorous approach to collecting and formatting it, such as: grabbing the
change.log
file out of every release’s portable archive, combining, formatting, blahblah. It could be automated, I suppose.My archive was for me, and it slightly changed format as time evolved, so it isn’t rigorous.

SO, one could put that into a file and:
foreach line: wget $line unzip *.zip change.log cat change.log >> master.log del change.log *.zip
Or something like that …
Cheers.

Or something like that …
in CMD.exe:
for /f %i in ('more nppvers.txt') do @(wget %i && unzip *.zip change.log & cat change.log >> master.log & del *.zip change.log)
I was able to get (with some cleanup) Notepad++ change logs (when available) from 1.0 - 5.0.3. After that, they get put in subdirectories (
ansi\change.log
,unicode\change.log
) so my little one-liner didn’t quite work.The resultant file is 751 lines and 39,191 bytes. Where to upload?
Cheers.

Missing 5.1 - 6.9.2, but I have all others.
Of course, just realizing now this is in reverse order and I should have
tac
(instead ofcat
) the file of URL’s so that the latest changes would be at the top … oh well …Cheers.
