Released CodeSnip 4.19.0

-

Just in time for the new year, CodeSnip v4.19.0 has been released.

This contains the promised re-organisation of the Preferences dialogue box to get rid of the confusing multi-line tabs. The dialogue box now has a list of pages in a pane on the left, with the relevant options appearing on the right.

I've finally worked out how to make the size of the font in the overview pane's tree view customisable - it's only taken me a year to respond to this request.

Finally, there's a fix to an obscure bug in the legacy Code Snippets Database loader code that I doubt has ever bothered anyone - but probably would if it wasn't fixed!

As usual you can download the program from the delphidabbler/codesnip GitHub repo's Releases page or from SourceForge:

Source is available to download from both the above repos or you can fork away in the GitHub repo.

For a complete list of changes see the change log.

Finally, months after I meant to, I've released v2.2.0 of the DelphiDabbler Code Snippets Collection. This is a collection of snippets that can be loaded into CodeSnip program. To do so, download csdb-v2.2.0-data.zip from the GitHub release page . Unzip it somewhere on your system then run CodeSnip. Select the Install or Update DelphiDabbler Snippets Database  menu option and follow the wizard. If you would like to run tests on some of the snippets then download  csdb-v2.2.0-tests.zip  from the same place. Read the included read-me file for info about how to run the tests. Finally there's comprehensive documentation in  csdb-v2.2.0-docs.zip . In this release the main feature is the addition of a few routines to the Mathematics category. Specifically there are three IEEE conformant Pown routines and a couple of heavily overloaded summing functions. For details of these and other changes see the change log .

CodeSnip v4.23.0 Released

-

Today I released an  update to CodeSnip  that makes two little changes: The marketing names have been removed from later Delphi versions (e.g. Athens & Rio) to save space in the UI if you have several versions of Delphi registered. So now instead of seeing Delphi 12 Athens you will see Delphi 12.x , for example. The built in REML markup language that can be used to format snippet descriptions and "Extra" text, now supports the ' character entity that gets replaced by a single quote when rendered. For the complete change log see here . Compiler name changes in v4.23.0 New REML character entity in v4.23.0

Never make new year's resolutions - dumping CodeSnip Belvedere

-

Over 9 years I've had three attempts at creating CodeSnip 5. All have been very ambitious. The latest was CodeSnip Belvedere, rashly announced on new year's day this year. Now I never normally make new year's resolutions, and I should have stuck with that tradition! Of course Belvedere foundered - it was way too ambitious. Again. I was overwhelmed right from the start. Just look at the repo where there have been bugger all commits . So here's a new announcement I can stick by: Belvedere is dead, abandoned, gone. The idea to rebuild CodeSnip from the ground up was an attractive proposition, but it was way too much work. Right from the start I seemed to have an inkling I might have bitten off more than I could chew, because I even queried the wisdom of the new year's resolution in the announcement itself ! And that's what all the failed attempts to create the next release have in common: the plans for the new version were always too ambitious . Maybe I've le
