HiEditor

[akyprian]

Hi all,

HiEditor is an ultra fast, large file editor consuming very little memory. It can display non-printable characters in a readable format. Text is pinned.

HiEditor uses my HiEdit custom control which I already released as a library and a dll together with a demo appication. Note: I 'll release a new version of this package soon.

Please let me know of any suggestions or bugs.

Regards,

Antonis

Woohoo...excellent!!!  :U :U :U

just a few suggestions:
* The line numbers' width thing...could it be made into a text box with an up down control. (Easier to follow)
* How about putting the font options inside a groupbox???
Also, any reason for having "lefttexted" check boxes? (too used to standards, I guess)  :wink :wink

I am glad you like it. I 'll take your suggestions into account.

Thanks a lot,

Antonis

Hi Antonis, HiEdit looks and works great! It effortlessly scrolls through a 100MB .ZIP file which is over 300,000 "lines" long... while using only 11MB of RAM! :bg

I'd like to ask for some additional features if possible.

1. Option for Hexadecimal viewing and editing?
2. File association?
3. Minor: the Line Numbers Width default of 21 only allows three digits to be displayed on XP SP2. Maybe default LineNumbersWidth=38 so that >10,000 lines can be seen.

Keep up the good work! :U

Hi Mark Jones,

HiEditor uses ~140K when opening large files.

1. I don't think this will be done any soon
2. You can associate any file type with HiEditor
3. The default is only the default. You can change it to any value you prefer


Thanks for the good words,

Antonis

Very nice. Beautiful toolbar icons as well, did you make them yourself? If so are they freely usable?

Cheers,

Zooba :U

Thanks a lot. I use the same toolbar bitmaps in WinAsm Studio which are courtesy of PhoBos. You can use them, if you so wish.

I highly recommend akyprian's work to everyone.  I've been using his applications for over a year, and could not live without them.

Nice program  :U just locks up when I try to load in a 3GB file  :P

Hi all,

It can display non-printable characters in a readable format. Text is pinned.

If you mean the extended ASCII characters, it doesn't display them correctly.

Hi,

@Stan Hebben: It is supposed to load even a 3GB file; Does it crash or you are not patient enough to wait for it to load?

@skywalker: Non-printable characters are < 32 and are displayed nicely (I hope!). The Extended ASCII (> 127) display is dictated by the currently selected font. Please let me know if it is not clear enough.

I loaded the 3GB file again, and I've been waiting for about 5 minutes, but the file still wasn't loaded.

Copying the file in explorer to the same file does take about 6 minutes. (but that's read & write, so reading it should take about 3 minutes)

The program doesn't crash, only hangs.

Don't bother solving it. Who loads up 3GB text files  :bg (my file wasn't a text file)

HiEditor uses ~140K when opening large files.

Hmm... see the attached photo. What does this indicate then? I started HiEdit then loaded a 3.75MB bitmap.

I opened up a 10MB plain text file with 540 000 lines. It works very fast  :U but it uses op 11MB instead of the 140K.
