Simple plain text editor written in PowerShell. Saves files automatically.

jottey's Issues

File Watcher doesn't work

Jottey doesn't update the TextBox when the file is changed externally.

Column number sometimes negative

It only occurs when selecting from left to right over multiple lines. The negative number seems to be the number of characters selected.

Add new screenshot

The current screenshot doesn't show the statusbar.

Status bar panel does not update when using the select all from the edit menu

When using the select all form the edit menu the status bar is not updated.

Change to WPF

So we can add good theming support.

Add screenshot

Add a screenshot to the README.md. Like this:

Add all basic editing functions to "Edit" menu

• Undo
• Cut
• Copy
• Paste
• Delete

Text is removed when cancelling the open dialog

After opening the open dialog from the file menu and clicking close the text inputted in the text box disappears because the path cannot be found.

The open dialog needs to be handled better so that the text box only changes on a successful opening.

Get-Content : Cannot bind argument to parameter 'Path' because it is an empty string. At C:\Users\adam\Documents\GitHub\Personal\Jottey\Jottey.ps1:70 char:28 $InputData = Get-Content $global:InputFile CategoryInfo : InvalidData: (:) [Get-Content], ParameterBindingValidationException FullyQualifiedErrorId : ParameterArgumentValidationErrorEmptyStringNotAllowed,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.GetContentCommand

Show name of opened file in window title

Add shortcuts

For example, Ctrl+A for select all.
I thinks the easiest way to do this is create an "Edit" menu strip item and assign the shortcuts to the subitems.

In C# it works like this, apparently:
menuItem.ShortcutKeys = System.Windows.Forms.Keys.Control | System.Windows.Forms.Keys.O;

TextBoxType Function does not run when outside form

The TextBoxType function does not run when releasing the mouse click outside of the form window. This means the bottom panels are not updated and the document is not saved.

This is mostly annoying when highlighting text and moving your mouse outside of the form while doing so before releasing the mouse button.

File doesn't save when no file is opened

Since we claim Jottey automatically saves you file, it would be logical it does that too when you haven't yet given your file a name.
