now receives a pointer to the currently parsed text line.
</li>

</li>
</ul>

<h3>FAR Manager Colorer beta1a</h3>
<hr/>
<h2>take5.alpha3, 1 March 2003</h2>
<h3>Class changes</h3>
<ul>
<li><a href='../api/classBaseEditor.html'>BaseEditor</a> class becomes more independent. It is
based on <a href='../api/classParserFactory.html'>ParserFactory</a> class
and allows now to internally create and choose required <a href='../api/classRegionMapper.html'>RegionMapper</a>
classes. Also, there is no need now to load HRC FileType manually.
If not yet loaded, any <a href='../api/classFileType.html'>FileType</a>
class is loaded automatically, when passed to BaseEditor instance.
</li>
<li>Java language interface is now available. It uses Colorer through
JNI calls. It defines mappings of BaseEditor and ParserFactory classes.
Also simple <a href='http://www.eclipse.org'>Eclipse Platform</a> plugin were written to demonstrate Colorer's
abilities. It uses Eclipse's <abbr title='Standard Widget Toolkit'>SWT</abbr> API and can be used
also as independent application.
</li>
<li>Keywords sorting algorithm is replaced with simple quicksort method.
This makes good performance increase when keywords in HRC files were not sorted.</li>
<li>Some changes in the internal handlers structure.
<a href='../api/classLineSource.html'>LineSource</a> class must pass now
string pointer to parser, not DString object, as it was before.
Also, now it defines formal requirements of the lifetime of the returned string.
<a href='../api/classRegionHandler.html'>RegionHandler</a> interface provides now
references to currently parsed line of text. This makes easier installation
and structure of external installed handlers.
</li>
<li><a href='../api/classLineSource.html'>LineSource</a> class has now
two new methods - startJob and endJob. They are used to notify object
about start and end of line requests blocks.
</li>
</ul>
<h3>HRC changes</h3>
<ul>
<li><a href='../hrc-ref/index.html'>HRC Language Reference</a> is started.</li>
<li>Relax NG 1.0 schema is included.</li>
<li>XSLT 2.0 Draft schema is included (needs fixes).</li>
<li><code>weight</code> attribute of <code>firstline</code> and
<code>filename</code> RE matchers in prototype declaration
has floating point type now. This makes
type detection in some cases more flexible.</li>
<li>Automatic outlines generation option from xml schemas.
All standard languages were regenerated to include common
outline regions indention.
</li>
<li>XHTML syntax uses <code>Strict</code> module by default and <code>Transitional</code> as alternative.</li>
<li>DocBook now uses latest correct XSD descriptions version 1.0b1.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Colorer.exe</h3>
<ul>
<li>HTML output mode uses font style information and
can format sources now with bold, italic, underline properties.
</li>
</ul>
<h3>FAR Plugin</h3>
<ul>
<li><code>clr:</code> prefix allows to use double quotes in file name.</li>
<li>Much faster performance (x2) was achieved int FAR's editor
because of previously used multiple requests of each FAR's line.
This makes great leak of cpu usage.
Also, effective method of line text requesting is used
in all possible actions.
</li>
<li>Internal Library text lines requests has changed to make
processing faster. Now, FAR plugin works faster because
less lines data requests.
</li>
<li>Structured presentation of created outliner.
All elements are displayed in tree, also, for each element,
prefix-char is shown.
You can collapse or extend tree with <code>Ctrl-Left/Right</code>.
</li>
</ul>
<hr/>
<h2>take5.alpha2, 16 February 2003</h2>
<h3>Class changes</h3>
<ul>
<li>Some classes renamed and moved into new locations.</li>
<li>Region associations behaviour changed.
Now, RegionDefine is abstract class, and it's subtypes inherits
and extends color or other region information.
LineRegion class knows nothing about real color information.
Now it contains reference to RegionDefine subclass (instead of
inheritance, as it was).
</li>
</ul>
<h3>HRC changes</h3>
<ul>
<li>New style of file type detection is embedded.
Each type is detected with passed file name and first line of file's content.
But new behaviour takes into account filename matching and firstline matching
in equal rights. Each matching token has it's own weight, and required type
is selected as type with biggest summary weight.
Optionally, weight of filename or firstline matching token could be changed.
</li>
</ul>
<h3>Colorer.exe</h3>
<ul>
<li>New output mode - tokenizer (-ht option). With this mode
colorer outputs target file with each token marked with
specific style (equals to the name of it's HRC region).
</li>
</ul>
<h3>FAR Plugin</h3>
<ul>
<li>New prototype parameters handling - default-fore, default-back.
With this numeric properties you can change default text and background
color in any file type.
</li>
<li>If exception is ocurred while text processing, colorer stops
it's job and disables any further text coloring.</li>
<li>Paired constructions are searched now on all the text.</li>
<li>FAR command line prefix 'clr' allows to run internal colorer's
viewer and to view files with syntax highlighting.</li>
<li>Works with outlined text structure (functions and errors list at now).
</li>
</ul>
<hr/>
