      It’s pretty kludgy, but this will tide us over until we’re safely into a v9 series.

      program CheckNppVersions;
      
      {$IFDEF FPC}
      {$mode objfpc}{H+}
      {$ENDiF}
      
      uses
        Windows, Classes, SysUtils;
      
      type
        NppVersion = record
          Major: Word;
          Minor: Word;
        end;
      
      const
          MinorVersions: array[0..20] of Word = (0, 1, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 191, 192, 193, 2, 21, 3, 31, 32, 33, 4);
          PatchReleases: Array[0..2] of Word = ( 191, 192, 193 );
      var
        V : NppVersion;
        i, j: byte;
        IsCompat: Boolean;
        IsPatchRelease: Boolean;
      begin
        v.Major := 8;
        IsCompat := False;
        try
          WriteLn('Major'#9'Minor'#9'Compatible?');
          WriteLn('-----'#9'-----'#9'------------');
      
          for i := 0 to Length(MinorVersions) - 1 do
          begin
            v.Minor := MinorVersions[i];
            IsPatchRelease := False;
      
            for j := 0 to Length(PatchReleases) - 1 do
            begin
              IsPatchRelease := (V.Minor = PatchReleases[j]);
              if IsPatchRelease then Break;
            end;
      
            IsCompat :=
                (v.Major > 8) or
                ((v.Major = 8) and
                  (((V.Minor >= 3) and (V.Minor <= 9)) or
                   ((V.Minor > 21) and not IsPatchRelease)));
      
            WriteLn(Format('%5d'#9'%5d'#9'%12s', [V.Major, V.Minor, IsCompat.ToString(TUseBoolStrs.true)]));
          end;
        finally
        end;
      end.

          @yaron,

          But anyway, the official 8.4 is supposed to be released soon.

          I’m obviously not up to speed, but the current git still has “8.33”. Where can I open a PR showing how to bump the version without breaking the plugin (i.e., by adding a 0 to the end of the VERSION_VALUE string) ?

          diff --git a/PowerEditor/src/resource.h b/PowerEditor/src/resource.h
          index a6a402c2..ed26d0f0 100644
          --- a/PowerEditor/src/resource.h
          +++ b/PowerEditor/src/resource.h
          @@ -23,8 +23,8 @@
           
           // should be X.Y : ie. if VERSION_DIGITALVALUE == 4, 7, 1, 0 , then X = 4, Y = 71
           // ex : #define VERSION_VALUE TEXT("5.63\0")
          -#define VERSION_VALUE TEXT("8.33\0")

           // Notepad++ version: end

            I’m not sure I understand your question.
            Why not in https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/pulls?

            Thanks again.

              I’m not sure I understand your question.

              It was more of a rhetorical outburst in the heat of the moment. I tried to make the case in a bug report instead.

              The secret to my productivity? I’m still “Stand[ing] with Hong Kong” . . .

                New release ready to try: bitbucket.org/rdipardo/htmltag/issues/2.
                Let’s hope it makes it into v1.4.9 of Plugins Admin (and N++ 8.4_).

                  Thank you very much. I appreciate it.

                  Should I reply “חג שמח גם לך”? :)
                  Anyway, thanks for that too.

                    Please update the 'readme.textfile`. It does not include activating the plugin through the Plugins Admin menu. I figured that out but not everyone is guaranteed to know that step is required.

                    After copying the .dll to the plugins folder:

                    1. Open the the Plugins menu and then open ‘Plugins Admin…’

                    2. Searching for HTML if there’s a long list (as there is for me)

                    3. Check the checkbox to the left of the plugin name in the list.

                    4. Click the “Install” button in the upper left.
                      notepad++ will restart and your plugin will then be activated and ready to be used.

                        Notes

                        • Since v1.2, 64-bit versions of HTMLTag require Notepad++ 8.3 or newer.
                        • Notepad++ 8.4 is not compatible with HTMLTag 1.2.1 or 1.2.2

                        HTMLTag is now free (as in Free Pascal)

                        1.3 will be the first version linked against Free Pascal’s open source runtime libraries.

                        The transition from Delphi’s proprietary runtime took longer than expected; I don’t recommend doing the same with other Object Pascal plugins, especially if they depend on Delphi’s Visual Component Library. That HTMLTag had no GUI was a lucky exception. Potential contributors will find that a command line and GDB are all that’s needed to get started.

                        To mark the milestone, the About dialog has been refreshed with clickable URLs and dynamic text revealing the path to the HTML entities configuration file. A missing file will be indicated by a red error message; when found, clicking will open it (in notepad.exe, unless you’ve hacked the Registry to make N++ the system’s default text editor):

                        htmltagv130_002.gif

                        No more load failures in 64-bit Notepad++

                        As confirmed here, all 64-bit versions of HTMLTag will load without fail in N++ 8.4.1 and later.

                          I was not notified of your last post. Just happened to see it.

                          v1.3.0 crashes NPP on going to the opening tag and on error.
                          Could you please have a look?

                          Thank you for you work.

                            Was it a source build that crashed? I know the proposed upgrade to Scintilla 5.2.3 involves a scary-looking change to the builtin tag matcher, but it’s not been merged yet.

                            For me, the x64 release DLL runs fine in the latest N++.

                              [Edit] I think what you’re seeing is an infinite loop that freezes up the editor when you search for a non-existent closing tag. The application window fades with the “Not responding” message, correct?

                              It’s a regression from my attempt to fix a memory leak in the Unicode escape decoder. I’ll release a new version when it’s fixed.

                                Correct. That’s “on error”.
                                And the second case is: place the caret on a closing tag and “Find a matching tag”.

                                I’ll release a new version when it’s fixed.

                                Great.

                                  The latest build should be more stable.

                                      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:

                                      htmltag_v136_x64.gif

                                      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.

                                          the site (https://bitbucket.org/rdipardo/htmltag/) unavailable.

                                          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.
