CudaLister (source code viewer)

[nsp]

Since 1.7.0, the plugin is Read Only without possibility to change to Edit mode like for previous version. Issue 61 was closed with laconic comment from the author with this version.

It is still a good viewer but a huge regression as the ability to edit is removed on released package. If you need edit, Stay on 1.6.4121 or do code modification and build it yourself with Lazarus 2.0.

--edited to correct version typo 41 21

What nsp said, still a great replacement for TC's internal lister. Also, the latest release v1.72 still occasionally crashes and freezes Total Commander in the process.

Can someone share version 1.6.41 of cuda lister please. Want to try the lister with no read only mode.

Thank you. I checked that link earlier just did not see version 1.6.41 of cuda lister.

Thank you.

Did the author give any reason as to why he removed editing capabilities from his plugin?

Extracted from the readme of version 1.70 .

* change: plugin is read-only now, menu item "Read only" is disabled - this is due to problems of new ATSynEdit to work inside Total Commander (TThread + TEvent setting/resetting/checking are not working)

Thank you. So there is hope that he will return this feature in the future.

Just for understanding:
"The settings of the files displayed by cudalister are totally based on the "lexer-folder"; the other settings in wincmd.ini (force; ext=...) have no effect."
Correct?

Correct?

Correct. And any individual settings you apply in the Cuda lister plugin are stored in the file LSPlugin.ini, located in TC's main folder. For instance, you can apply one of the color schemes provided with the plugin.

Not quite correct. The detect-string is interpreted by TCmd before the lister plugin is started.
E.g.

Code: Select all

 X_detect="FORCE|((SIZE<2097152)&(ext!="RTF"))"

uses CudaLister only if the file is smaller than 2MB and not a RTF file.

CudaLister 1.7.5.5 is published.

[deus-ex]

After several more releases, we are currently at v1.7.5.1. Alex is currently on a roll, fixing and further optimizing his great CudaLister plugin.
