- Known Bugs
-
- This isn't a bug actually: The grep string /\(^.*\n\)\1/\1/ should find pairs
- of identical lines and eliminate one of them. But in Uedit's grep you can
- only use the carat ^ (force match to start of line) as the very first thing
- in grep strings. I did this on purpose to encourage people to type in an eol
- instead of using the carat; searching for an eol is faster than testing for
- start of line. Only at the front of the string do you need to use the carat
- to force a match to start of line, and only then because at start of file
- there is no eol before the beginning of the line. To find pairs of identical
- lines and eliminate one of them, use this grep string:
- /^\(.*\n\)\1/\1/
-
- When you search with the above command and find a match, only 1 line is
- colored because only the cursor line gets refreshed. To make it color both
- matched lines, you must add a refreshDisplay to the virtual-f10 command.
-
- Title Bar with 1 bitplane: When you switch to a 1 bitplane screen the title
- bar is left blank. If you go to/from tiny window, the title bar is updated,
- however, and behaves correctly thereafter. This bug only happens with
- Workbench 2.0.
-
- If you press the menu button to display a menu, sometimes the menu may be
- chopped off by Uedit. This is a cosmetic bug and you can get the full menu
- displayed again by reselecting the menu with the mouse.
-
- ((In Workbench 1.3 there was a handy menuDrawn flag in the private area of
- the Intuitionbase structure which was elminated in Workbench 2.0; this flag
- used to tell Uedit's display routines when not to update the display because
- a menu was visible. Uedit for the time being needs to be compatible with the
- new and old Workbench, so the display routines have no way of knowing whether
- you are looking at a menu or not; thus sometimes during an idle period a
- display update occurs when you are examining a menu, and part of the menu is
- chopped off by the display update. This is cosmetic and harmless.))
