TinyPad

Version: 1.93

by: Gello [More]

TinyPad is a notepad addon.

__ New in 1.93 __

toc update for 5.3 patch

__ New in 1.92 __

If TinyPad has focus (cursor blinking in it) then adding text to end will keep scrolling to end.
Clicking an item link will scroll to that item if it's in an open tradeskill window

To summon: /tinypad or /pad or set a key binding.
To resize: drag the resize grip in the lower right corner of the window.

The mod should be self explanatory how to use. Mouseover buttons to see what they do.

__ Notes on link support __

Links supported: Items, Spells, Tradeskills, Recipes, Quests and Achievements
To add links to pages: Bring up a TinyPad page and put the blinking cursor where you want to insert a link, then shift+click an item, spell, recipe, quest or achievement as you ordinarily would to chat. To link an entire tradeskill, click the chat bubble in the upper right of the tradeskill window, as you would for chat or macros.
To view links: Click them.
To send links: Shift+click to chat as you would normally.
Links can't be copy-pasted naturally and remain clickable. But the addon Linkerize will allow cut/pasting links with control codes.
Links may display only a handful of characters, but they have many hidden control characters (especially tradeskills). The EditBox is not intended to handle massive amounts of text, so keep that in mind if trying to cram the entire contents of AtlasLoot into one page.

__ Notes __

Searches are case insensitive.
You can bind a key to search.
Pages aren't "saved" until you leave the page, so expect Search to not find new stuff on your current page.
While locked, the window won't go away with ESC, but you can still toggle it with /pad or a key binding.
You can also run pages with /run TinyPad.Run(page)
You can add a page with TinyPad.Insert("text here adds a new page")
You can delete multiple pages with TinyPad.DeletePagesContaining("regex") NOTE: be careful with this one
Double-clicking a word will highlight the word
Clicking on an item link while a tradeskill window is open will jump to that item if your tradeskill can create it

Two remaining prolbems: (1) The item linking no longer works: Message: Interface\AddOns\TinyPad\TinyPad.lua:452: attempt to index global 'ChatFrameEditBox' (a nil value) Time: 10/14/10 18:53:41 Count: 1 Stack: [C]: ? Interface\AddOns\TinyPad\TinyPad.lua:452: in function `DoubleClick' [string ":OnMouseUp"]:1: in function <[string ":OnMouseUp"]:1> (2) As Vidster indicates, you can no longer move the TinyPad frame (even after unlocking it).

I was just thinking I really needed a notepad that supports item links, and was groaning about having to code one myself.. Then I run into this baby I've just gone one request, add a monospace font like courier for us nerds who like to make tables :3 Edit: Never mind, I figured out how to add fonts! For anyone who wants to know, you open the TinyPad.lua file and edit the table of fonts. By default, it is like this: Code: fonts = { {"Fonts\\FRIZQT__.TTF",10}, {"Fonts\\FRIZQT__.TTF",12}, -- default {"Fonts\\FRIZQT__.TTF",16}, {"Fonts\\ARIALN.TTF",12}, {"Fonts\\ARIALN.TTF",16}, {"Fonts\\ARIALN.TTF",20}, {"Fonts\\MORPHEUS.ttf",16,"OUTLINE"}, {"Fonts\\MORPHEUS.ttf",24,"OUTLINE"}, -- add fonts here }, To add your own fonts, edit it like this: Code: fonts = { {"Fonts\\FRIZQT__.TTF",10}, {"Fonts\\FRIZQT__.TTF",12}, -- default {"Fonts\\FRIZQT__.TTF",16}, {"Fonts\\ARIALN.TTF",12}, {"Fonts\\ARIALN.TTF",16}, {"Fonts\\ARIALN.TTF",20}, {"Fonts\\MORPHEUS.ttf",16,"OUTLINE"}, {"Fonts\\MORPHEUS.ttf",24,"OUTLINE"}, {"Interface\\AddOns\\TinyPad\\cour.ttf",10}, -- add fonts here }, Drop the font file (in my case cour.ttf, courier new) into the TinyPad addon folder and you're all set.

Many thanks for such a great addon.

Thanks!

One side project I was working on at one time was a "plugin" for TinyPad that would basically allow bookmarks, headings and the ability to tag a page to run on login. I agree it would be handy. We'll see what time permits.

I hope other chat authors ill help about this problem

Exporting is generally not difficult. All of the notes are stored in Tinypad.lua in what appears to be some sort of grep style, with each page having it's own line.

I've had to go in several times when I accidentally deleted something (an Undo feature would be VERY NICE), extract the information from the .lua file, and reenter it into the pad. (Note: You have to do this before you log out or it will overwrite the file with the changes.)

If this cant be fixed, are other addons around like this?...

Sorry I didn't catch this earlier.

A new version will hopefully fix this but I'm unsure how it will interact with chat addons.

The root problem is that when another editbox gets focus now, it deactivates the chat editboxes (not only hides, but clears contents, flags and stuff). The route I went was that if you appear to be shift+clicking a link it will suppress the deactivate (or alt/etc+clicking if you change which modifier links).

This has the (hopefully minor) quirk that if you're linking stuff and hold your link modifier (shift usually) when you hit enter, the chat will go through but the editbox will remain. In regular use I don't foresee it being noticable.

If anyone has a more elegant solution I'm open to ideas, especially if there are problems linking through chat addons now.

If this continues to have problems and you're still looking for alternatives, NotesUNeed looks like a very solid one centered around storing links in a notepad environment.
