MarkMyWords 2.11.2 released

MarkMyWords 2.11.2 is now available on the Mac App Store!

This update of MarkMyWords offers an extensive list of improvements, optimizations and bug fixes in various areas that further improve working with the application. This update also offers new functions that can be helpful when working with texts.

One of these is the function to select markers with the Tab key. Developers are familiar with this type of behavior from many code editors. This feature can also be useful in MarkMyWords, e.g. if there are several markers in a line, selecting them using the Tab key is much more convenient and quicker.

The new function for highlighting double spaces at the end of a line should also be mentioned. Especially for the markup language Markdown and its extended alternatives MarkdownExtra and MultiMarkdown, the double space at the end of a line has a special meaning, which in these cases is converted into a line break, i.e. br-tag. If you do not need or want this feature, you can switch it off in the MarkMyWords settings.

MarkMyWords' internal markup parser has also undergone many improvements. It is worth studying the list of changes here.

The complete list of changes:

New:

select marker via Tab key, if the insertion point is in a line containing a marker, pressing the Tab key is now sufficient to select it
new settings option for visual highlighting of double spaces at the end of a line (can be set under Settings > Editor > Highlighting)
the import function can now also be used to insert plain text files into existing documents

Improvements:

import from clipboard refined, fewer unnecessary spaces
Illusion Format / Syntax Highlighting Markdown, MarkdownExtra, MultiMarkdown improved recognition of formatted links
added supporting error messages and signal images in the default settings for the file extensions for the respective Markup languages
improvements when setting the background color of the text field

Bug fixes:

fixes a bug in the text editor that led to display errors under certain circumstances
Illusion Format Smark: fixes a bug in the display of named links

Other:
