Screenshot of warning about line length

I participate on the Unix & Linux website and a user recently posted the following issue, to which I found no method to disable and/or override within Bluefish.

How do I remove the 'split lines' error in Bluefish?, http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/105253/how-do-i-remove-the-split-lines-error-in-bluefish.

The OP mentioned that every time he invoked Bluefish it would complain about the file containing very long lines with a dialog popping up, asking him if he wanted to split these lines.

In looking through the issue tracker for Bluefish I did notice this ticket:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=701628

I'm assuming that this dialog is related to this ticket, and is an attempt to protect the instance of Bluefish from being loaded with a file that has these long lines, causing performance issues.

Questions
---------
1. Are these issues related?
2. Is there anything that he OP can do to get around this particular dialog/issue?

The OP is on Fedora 19 + GNOME 3.8.4, in case that matters, which I have a feeling doesn't in this particular case.

Thanks for any guidance and for making a wonderful editor!

Hello - I'm the OP (Original Poster) by the way, and I am using Fedora 19 and Gnome 3.8.4, with Bluefish 2.2.4)


I have found a line in the preferences to increase the line split limit thing, but that did not help much. I generally don't like the dialog as I am often trying to edit lots of documents at high speed.

The problem is also mentioned here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/377227/how-to-stop-bluefish-from-displaying-file-contains-very-long-lines-split-these

Thanks for the best editor!

Thanks for posting this slm!
Comment 2 Olivier Sessink 2013-12-15 20:25:51 UTC
the bugreports are related --> bluefish still cannot handle files with very long lines very good.

In more recent versions the line length to warn about is increased almost 100X, so the warning doesn't come up that often anymore. Possibly we can make this configurable.
Comment 3 Olivier Sessink 2013-12-15 20:27:35 UTC
I just noticed there is a new option in 2.2.5beta2 that allows you to disable this warning altogether. So it's fixed already.

In that case, where can I get it - will beta1 - http://www.bennewitz.com/bluefish/devel/source/bluefish-2.2.5beta1.tar.bz2 - be of any use? It ain't fixed as such unless it can be used...

I have no problem with base64 lines 5000+ characters in length by the way - the dialog in 2.2.4 only allows the warning to be disabled up to 500...
Comment 5 wilf 2013-12-15 20:48:44 UTC
Oops - found beta2;
http://www.bennewitz.com/bluefish/devel/source/bluefish-2.2.5beta2.tar.bz2

But when will it be available as a package for Fedora (.rpm) and Ubuntu (.deb)?
Comment 6 Olivier Sessink 2013-12-15 20:51:10 UTC
we're working on that, I hope we will finish it before the end of the month
Comment 7 wilf 2013-12-15 20:53:10 UTC
Thanks - are the bennewitz links official by the way? The main website seems to be about a glasses company...
Comment 8 Olivier Sessink 2013-12-15 21:10:38 UTC
yes, the developer of that website is the fedora packager for Bluefish and is hosting our downloads ;-)

Bluefish svn repo

If you would like to test the current SVN versions of Bluefish, I am now providing RPM's for Fedora 19 and 20. Attached is the repo file that will add my bluefish-svn yum repo. Place the file in etc/yum.repos.d.

RPM's are signed with my gpg key. The latest version available is SVN revision 8181.

I exported the wrong key. Should be fixed now. Thank you for letting me know about the problem.
