[regex-coach] Possible bug: Can't insert file to main window

I wan't to test a regex against a file, but when I put the focus on the "test string" box, the "Insert File" option is greyed out. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Photos: High-quality 4x6 digital prints for 25� http://photos.yahoo.com/ph/print_splash

Sorry, but I forgot to add that I'm using the Linux version on Redhat 9. --- M Foster <reckloose99@yahoo.com> wrote:

Yes, you're right, the feature to load and save files seems to work on Windows only. This is probably a bug in the compiler - the code is supposed to work identically on Linux and Windows but on Linux it doesn't realize that one of the main panes has focus. I'll have to contact Xanalys support. Sorry, Edi.

I've just uploaded a new release (0.6.7) which makes "Insert File" and "Save As" available through Emacs key bindings for the Linux version (see docs). It turns out that due to the way Motif works it's not possible to support a file menu similar to the Windows version. The new release also fixes a bug in the regex engine - see changelog.txt. Have fun, Edi.
