Latest Update

Version: 1.0 (build 3) • Date: March 11, 2026

Stability pass focused on session handling, bookmark accuracy, and large-file reliability.

Bugs Fixed

  • Fixed bookmark gutter interactions after scrolling so clicked marks now reliably target the expected line.
  • Fixed blank/placeholder untitled tabs from being kept in the open-tab list once a real file is opened.
  • Fixed session restore paths being skipped silently when missing or moved files are no longer available.
  • Fixed crashes and restore failures when recovering untitled tab content from a saved session.
  • Fixed new documents not receiving immediate typing focus after creation.
  • Fixed bookmark toggles in the Scintilla margin from hitting adjacent lines after hit-testing changes.
  • Fixed large-file behavior where some files opened in limited mode and skipped margin/syntax features.

Features Added

  • Added automatic backups for untitled tabs so content is saved periodically while editing unsaved files.
  • Added session restore so open tabs can be restored at launch, with a dedicated resume toggle in settings.
  • Added a redesigned Settings window with sidebar-based navigation and categorized settings sections.
  • Added controls to fully disable session persistence, including immediate stop of session autosave and clearing saved session data.
  • Refined file-open and editor flows to better reuse blank tabs and reduce duplicate session noise.
