Please Test CodeMirror Update with v5.3.7 Prerelease

1

Hi folks,

There is an updated version of CodeMirror and all CodeMirror AddOns at: https://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/plugins/tiddlywiki/codemirror/

If you use CodeMirror 5, It would be nice if you update and test the latest version and give feedback.

See the discussion about my testing at: Bump codemirror 5 plugin version to 5.65.19 by Leilei332 · Pull Request #9114 · TiddlyWiki/TiddlyWiki5 · GitHub

Thanks

Starting to test now, How does this relate to prior work with codemirror 6?

It does not relate at all. It is just an update of all libraries to the latest version.

Bump this thread. CodeMirror users. Please test and give feedback.

I should probably add: The linked wiki contains all the CM addOns. So you can copy/pasted them from there if you need.

Or you can use the linked wiki as a starting point for your tests.

@pmario Here are some notes from my own testing; I have not being using any version of codemirror of late so I have a somewhat nieve perspective;

Control Panel > Settings > CodeMirror
This should be pointed to perhaps even from the editor or at least documented better. Half of what codemirror can do depends on visiting here;

  • “Whether or not to automatically close tags” this is the first of a number of clunky instructions. If it relys on a checkbox it need only read “automatically close tags”
  • Whether to show line numbers to the left of the editor. on the demo site this is unchecked yet line number displayed. Can be simplified eg "show line numbers (left of editor)
    • or perhaps the default should be mentioned

I will keep reviewing and possible update this reply
