Other Enhanced Commands in Epsilon 13
- When you use the set-variable command on F8 to set the
value of a buffer-specific or window-specific variable, Epsilon now
offers to set the value in all buffers or windows.
- In set-variable and other places where Epsilon prompts
for a number, you can now use integer arithmetic expressions.
- Command file syntax now
recognizes its own
set-variable and change-name commands. You
can now run a command and send it a numeric prefix argument. For all
names of commands and variables, quotes are now optional. The new
do-execute-eel subroutine can be used from a command file to
execute arbitrary code without a separate EEL file.
- When Epsilon displays help on a command or variable, in
environments where such help isn't already linked to the rest of the
Epsilon manual, it now offers to display the same topic in a web
browser, providing convenient access to linked related topics.
- The diff, visual-diff, and merge-diff
commands no longer prompt for the name of a buffer by default. They
now use a buffer named
#diff# , unless you use a numeric prefix
argument to make them prompt.
- The eval command now recognizes
; followed by a
printf-style format specification. For instance, evaluate
123+456;x to show the result of that calculation in hexadecimal,
or 0x03B5;k to insert the name of Unicode character U+03B5 (using
Ctrl-u before the eval to make it insert the result).
- When you paste text from the clipboard, Epsilon sometimes
performs conversions to similar but more basic characters. For
instance, if you paste Unicode U+02DC SMALL TILDE, Epsilon replaces it
with the ASCII tilde character ~. Set the new
clipboard-convert-unicode variable to zero to prevent this.
- Pasting text from the clipboard in Mac OS X now converts from
Mac format if necessary. See the new clipboard-convert-mac-lines
variable. (13.01)
- Epsilon now provides HTML-based help by default under X11 and
later versions of Windows. The variables
want-gui-help and
want-gui-help-console have been replaced by new variables
epsilon-help-format-win-console,
epsilon-help-format-win-gui, and
epsilon-help-format-unix-gui, letting you customize which help
format you prefer. (13.02-13.10)
- Various bit values for the -ka flag were added. There are new
options for changing how Epsilon handles typing the key combinations
Ctrl-@, Ctrl-^, and Ctrl-
_ if you omit the Shift key, and whether
Epsilon recognizes Ctrl when applied to certain ASCII characters like
9 or *. (13.04)
