Tinn-R 9.00.01.01

Apr 2, 2024
Bug(s) fixed:
Eventual failures when sending lines, when many lines - one by one - are sent to the Term interface (with the |+ option checked) has been fixed. In other words, sending contiguous lines sequentially to the Term interface has been improved and is now more consistent. But you should also abuse this feature by continually resting your finger on the shortcut key or hotkey defined for this action to send large quantities of lines, as there are better options for this purpose.
A bug associated with the Tools/R/Mirrors/Mirrors(R) update button has been fixed. The issues that emerged with the new version of R (4.2.0 - UTF-8).
Bug in changing the position of tabs of the Main Interface, Options, Tools and Term has been fixed. From now on, all of them must only be in the top position.
Fixed some Term interface bugs with the knitr package. The bugs arose due to changes in the sending patterns of R messages under the package, mainly if the progress bar option is checked (quiet=FALSE, which is the default). I hope the authors don't make drastic changes to the parsing progress messages to invalidate the regular expressions made to match the Term interface to the messages in the Knitr package.
Bug associated to code completion has been fixed.
Format XML, recognizes: .xml and .xsd.
Bug in filtering in the Tools/Database/Hotkeys interface has been fixed.
News:
The user guide has been updated and improved.
Development was quite intense and uninterrupted throughout 2023. Only beta (or test) versions were released for a limited user base. The changes to the beta versions that occurred throughout the year were documented - collectively - only in this version.
This is the latest compiled version of the project developed and compiled in the Delphi 2007 IDE. The project is in an advanced stage of migration to Embarcadero's new Delphi 11 Community platform.
Interface:
A new tab was created in Tools/R called Working dir. The objective is to allow a graphical visualization of the active R folder. It also allows storing favorites and indicating the work folder to R with several interesting options.
OpenURL. New option (in the File menu and taskbar) allows opening remote files in the editor.
New options in the Options/Application interface make it possible to discover the program's reserved shortcuts. They cannot be changed by the user. There are few, but very important to know.
Some buttons (somewhat redundant) were removed from the Term interface. It has become visually simpler.
The Tools interface has been substantially improved.
A new interface button Tools/Windows expl. and Tools/Work expl. allow physical deletion of displayed files.
A small window was added in the Tools/R explorer interface that informs the description (.Rd) of each selected object.
New (and useful) functions in the button (and corresponding menu) R control: packages.
The indentation of the Term/IO interface has been improved. It was easier to read the submitted code due to the preservation of the script's original indentation.
The R Explorer interface was improved.
The S/K/Hmanager interface received updates and improvements.
Change (hopefully for the better) in the alignment of texts in the Tools interface.
Tools/Completion has been replaced by Tools/Snippets. The Completion.xml table is now named Snippets.xml. Users who have made (and saved) an extensive dataset of completion (before) (snippets from now on) will be able to notice a new button [Merge (file .xml)] that has been added in the new Snippets dialog window. When a new dataset (or any update to the source) is made, the user's dataset (Completion.xml or Snippet.xml, respectively) is saved in the bkp folder which is located in the Tinn-R startup folders (Help/Ini files (path information)). The new button allows the user's old base (completion or snippets) to be merged with the current one distributed with the new versions and eventually modified at the source. Thanks to Ivan B. Allaman for the helpful suggestion.
Replacement and addition of many icons has been made.
Filters can be applied to virtually all database-related features in the Tools interface:
Database: Shortcuts (app), Keystrokes (editor), Hotkeys (R), Snippets, Comments, Card and Mirrors.
Possibility of controlling the transparency of main and secondary windows independently.
The Options interface has been improved.
New resizing options in the Term/LOG interface.
The Web menu item received updates and improvements.
New options in the popup menu associated with projects allow sending files Rnoweb (Rnw, Rmd and RHtml) (via Sweave and knit ) directly to be interpreted, without being open.
Code:
Many efforts have been made in improving, standardizing and optimizing the source code.
Tip and Snippets received updates and improvements.
Dynamic updating of R mirrors has been improved.
Packages:
The TinnRcom package has been improved and has new functions. These functions are associated with searching for information in the documentation (.Rd) of objects.
Updated dependencies of package TinnRcom.
New features:
Built a (new) search interface for Snippets triggers: thanks to Ivan B. Allaman for the suggestion.
A (new) search interface was built with information linked to the documentation (.Rd) of the objects.
Implemented search and replace in the Term/IO and Term/LOG interface.
The Snippets (and respective search interface) are also functional in the Term interface.
Database:
Practically all database tables were updated.
Changes to shortcuts:
Shortcuts (app)
Ctrl + L: In the Term interface clears the IO and LOG windows
Alt + Space: Find again
Hotkeys do R

Bug(s) fixed:
Two major bugs introduced in the `pre-release version 4.2.6.0` have been fixed.
A bug related to `Help`, `Example` and `Open example` when all files were closed was fixed.
A bug related to `Rterm interface (IO)` and the package `debug` was fixed.
A bug related to the `custom color storage` was fixed.
A bug related to the `Options/Syntax (highlighter)/Default (to new files)` was fixed.
A bug related to the `Options/Syntax (highlighter)` was fixed.
Some issues about the `completion` followed by `F3` to find the next occurrence of `|` were corrected.
Issues about the installation of TinnRcom package (and its dependences) were corrected.
A lot of `PRE-RELEASE` versions of the project have been released, not restrict to testers.
The installation of TinnRcom package (and its dependences) was improved. From now, the sources (`.tar.gz`) and the binaries (`.zip`) of the packages `formatR`, `svMisc`, `svSocket` and `TinnRcom` will be released within the setup of Tinn-R. After the installation, it will be placed at `packages` folder. So all will be installed from the local `.zip`.
The package `TinnRcom` was upgraded to the version `1.0.20`.
The menu `options` has a new option: `R echo (on/off)`. This grants the user the choice to acho (or not) some options of send file, selection, clipboard, block marked, contiguous lines a line to end of page. A related button was add to R task bar. This made simpler and user friendly these options. The default shortcut to toggle this option is `ALT + E`
The procedure to `open a remote file from an URL` was improved and also covers `https` protocol.
If the user choice in `Options/Application/R/Patch (R)` is **No** to `Use latest installed version (always)` option, at startup, Tinn-R will search in all letters of the system drives for the fully informed path of R. It is very useful in the portable flavours due to letters changes in different computers.
The visibility of all `Page Control` and `Tab Sheets` caption were improved.
R will always start with two options:
`options(pkgType=’binary’)`
`options(install.packages.check.source=’no’)`
If the user do not have a personal library to manage the packages, from this version on, Tinn-R will create a folder named `x.y`, related to major and minor R version in the `C:/Users/User/Documents/R/win-library/`. This library will be used as default to package manager. The user can change the default library at `Options/Application/R/Packages (R)` in the `Library trees (.libPaths()`.
The default files `Shortcuts.xml` and `Mirrors.xml` were updated.
The default shortcuts related to focus on `Rterm interface` (Editor, IO and LOG) were changed due conflict with Windows 10.
When using `Rterm` (except with the `Send File`option) all other options related with more than one line will be added do the `R history`.
The source code related to identification of `library trees .libPaths()` was improved.
The `R explorer` interface related to identification of environments from objects was improved.
The resources related to `update mirrors` in runtime were improved.
The resources related to `knitr` and `Sweave` were improved and new options are in `Options/Application/R/Packages/Knitr`.
To all `knit` procedures it will be added the argument `quiet=TRUE`. So, if you want more control, or to big documents, it is suggested (for while) to use the `knit` with `Rgui.exe` instead of `Rterm.exe`.
The menu `Insert` has a new option: `R (assignment)`. This option make flexible to insert `` assignment. As it is associated to shortcuts, the user can customize both.
The navigator of all database was replaced.
The `IO` prompt of the `Rterm` interface is more user friendly. For this set `Options/Application/Editor/Advanced/Scroll pas end of line` option.
It was add a new item in the main menu: `Tools/Processing/Viewer/Open current file (generic)`.
The menu `Web` as heavy reworked and has new options.
The windows `Options/Application` received improvements.
A new resource allowing the user to `open/learning/edit` the example script of any R objet, from the `editor`, `Rterm/IO`, `Rterm/LOG` or window `Tools/R/explorer` was added.
The `tip` and `data completion` were deeply improved. `CTRL + SPACE` is the single trigger for both and the distinction is made in the context of the call. Additionally this feature now find the object, the package and the pattern in complex contexts multiline.
The shortcuts `CTRL + TAB` and `SHIFT + CTRL + TAB`, not user configurable, can now be also used in all interfaces `Editor, Rterm and Help` to sequentially switch the pages.
This version is full compatible with `Microsoft R Open - MRO`.
The folder `utils` was deeply restructured and it was added an instruction `unlockBinding(last.warning, baseenv())` to the new file `info.R` to workaround a small bug among `svSocket` and `MRO`.
The identifier `Note` brought back to the highlighter of R family, and due to this utility also added to `Text` highlighter.
The `R family, All and Text highlighter` received improvements related to `strings` identification. The intention is that they do not identify the shortened forms (he’s, you’d, you’ve, etc.) as string.
New options related to `Rterm: IO and LOG` highlighters.
The usability of `Rterm` interface is now more robust, stable and user friendly.
A new resource `Check for update` was added to the main menu `Help`.

Due to two portable versions (simple and compatible with Apps) were made some adjustments in the application source code and project structure.

Bug(s) fixed:
A bug related to Rterm interface (IO and Log) and the packages car and rms was fixed. The origin of the bug is that when both packages are loaded they change the pattern of messages on the pipe. Thanks to Frank for pointing it out.
A bug related to Update R mirrors and the countries Germany, Spain and Sweden was fixed.
The versions 4.0.3.1, 4.0.3.2 and 4.0.3.3 were restrict to testers: thanks for tests and suggestions.
From this version Tinn-R will be released in three flavours: Tinn-R, Tinn-RPortable and compatible with PortableApps platform.
Some files of the folder utils were updated to meet with Tinn-RPortable project necessities. Therefore, the folders and files of the R variable .trPaths were changed to TEMP environment variable.
The Help menu was a little changed.
The TinnRcom package was updated to the version 1.0.18.

The conversion options using Deplate or Txt2tags depends of the file extension. For Deplate are recognized: .dp, .dpt, .dplt, .deplate and .txt. For Txt2tags are recognized: .t2, .t2t, .txt2tags. and .txt.

а вот Русскую поддержку я не встретил, искал-искал, не смог отыскать, может у вас получится.

Highlighters settings window was deeply reworked.
Print preview window was reworked.
