SciTE 1.79 released

[Neil Hodgson]

SciTE 1.79 is now available from the scintilla.org web site.

SciTE 1.79 is a minor release.

This release allows wrapped lines to be indented to match the
initial line.

The tab bar is improved: on GTK+ it can be scrolled when there are
many tabs and on Windows tabs can be reordered by drag and drop.

There are other minor fixes and improvements.

A detailed list of changes is available on the history page.

Thanks to the contributors of code and documentation and to the
testers.

I've just compiled this new version and it seems the drag and drop of a
selected text doesn't work work me on Fedora9.
Also doesn't copy the selected text while pressing CTRL key + mouse left
button.

Just noticed the "virtual space" feature.

How can I disable this?

Thank you.

Do parts of it work? For example, if you start dragging text from
gedit, do you see a drag caret inside SciTE?

Ctrl+Click hasn't copied text before. Are you thinking of middle click?

Virtual space isn't in 1.79. Its only in pre-release code.

If you are using the prerelease then sending
SCI_SETVIRTUALSPACEOPTIONS with SCVS_NONE will turn off both uses of
virtual space.

I can drag the text from gedit to SciTE.

I can't drag the text in SciTE, I am inside SciTE and I want to move
something code from line 10 to line 20.
Eg.:
In SciTE, I make a selection with mouse and then with mouse I drag the
selection. I release the mouse and the selection remain in the original
position.

I meant this: I make a selection with mouse, then I press CTRL, then I try
to drag the selection with mouse, then I release the mouse button ...
nothing happens. This should copy the selection to the point where I
released the mouse.

These worked well in the previous release. Probably these issue are only in
the prerelease what I am using.

Thanks, hopefully there will be any setting for this in the future in the
global setting file :)

Thank you.
