hi all,

how many undos / redos are possible in phped? it seems they are limited quite low... can i set it to a higher level somewhere?

thank you.

PhpED 3.3 has 32000 REDO buffers and therefore you can roll back up to 32000 changes.
This limit will be configurable in the next version.

ok thank you for info.

Should the developers have used a linked list that is a dynamicly size array so there would be no limit to the buffers?

im sure the dynamic list (linked-list or resize-when-needed array) has been considered. however, i doubt you will have phped open for such a long time that you will use all 32k undos

actually it depends... For example if you have 32k words and replace them all you get 32k undos at once
Anyway, I agree it's rare case and normally you won't get even close the limit. On the other hand there is nothing wrong to have this thing configurable.

ofcourse
the more configurable, the better
some ides merge "replace all" or any successive replacement together into one undo step

I think people won't like it because undo would roll all changes back at once too , it's because undo is atomic and simplistic
