Refactoring
posted by Thomas Bell in Development 
April 12th, 2007
As Martin noted in the forums they have currently frozen the 0.2.1 branch. Juraj and Martin have moved into their planned refactoring phase of development. This refactoring phase is necessary and enables reaching milestones faster. The current refactoring task at hand is revitalizing the editing component from top to bottom. This will make in easier to build in all the great features everyone has suggested.
After the editing component is updated and fully refactored they will release unstable.0.3.0 which will include some awesome features:
- Free caret mode (this is already done)
- Word-Wrapping (Martin’s currently working on this)
- Multi and Rectangular selections
- Performance Upgrade
Along with features planned for 0.2.3 multi-docs and 0.2.4 search capabilities.
Also, because of the refactoring the editing component will be ready to be ported to other platforms.
The development of Intype will move much quicker after the refactoring phase. This is why they have taken this time and planned it into Intype’s development life cycle.

It says Multi-docs(tabs) and search support will be in 0.3.0.
I use Intype everyday and find it extremely useful already.

i’ve been using intype as my primary editor (well almost as my primary editor) for the past month now too. unfortunately the absense of find/replace is what is keeping me from having it as my permanent editor. with all that said, you guys rock, keep up the good work. this is the best textmate-esque editor for me to use when i’m not on my macbook pro at home. (my employer unfortunately is a microsoft gold partner and we have to use windows).
can’t wait for 0.3.0!

It would be nice to have an auto updater built in to the editor, just saying :)
