# Lite XL for AmigaOS 4.1 FE

Lite XL is coming to AmigaOS 4.1. This is a preview release for my supporters 
and not ready for public release, so please do not share it yet.

A lot of things are not quite working. Please have a look at the todo list 
below, for known bugs and things I want to add.

If you would like to give me some feedback, contact me at walkero@gmail.com

## Installation
You can extract the Lite XL archive wherever you want and run the *lite* 
editor.

## Configuration folder
This editor creates a `.config` folder where the configuration is saved, as 
well as plugins, themes etc.. By default this AmigaOS 4.1 FE version uses the
executable folder, but if you want to ovveride it, create an ENV variable 
named `HOME` and set there your path. 

You can check if there is one already set by executing the following command
in a shell
```
GetEnv HOME
```
If there is one set, then you will see the path at the output.

Otherwise, you can set your home path be executing the following command. 
Change the path to the one of your preference.
```
SetEnv SAVE HOME "Sys:home/"
```

# Changelog

## [1.16.12.5] - 2022-01-03
### Changed
- Changed the Gfx memory leak solution to a fix that was applied by the
  editor development team on Lua scripts at a later version. Less custom
  code for AmigaOS 4 port.
- Now, when return from fullscreen, there is no extra header visible
  at the top of the window content

### Fixed
- Fixed the assertion error and crash when the window is resized (#2)
- Fixed the resolution on fullscreen toggle to be like the workbench (#4)
- Fixed loading the current folder from terminal using the dot, like 
  `lite .` or without it (#3)

## [1.16.12.4] - 2021-12-31
### Fixed
- Fixed the Gfx memory leak. Now LiteXL frees the reserved memory from the
  gfx card.

## [1.16.12.3] - 2021-12-29
### Changed
- Compiled with an experimental version of the latest Anti-Grain Geometry
  library. This is might have issues and crash LiteXL

## [1.16.12.2] - 2021-12-26
### Added
- Added Amiga version. This version of LiteXL is based on v1.16.12 source code 
  which will not change. I will use the fourth digit to distinguish different 
  AmigaOS 4 releases, until a new port of the latest available source (v2.x) 
  is made.

### Fixed
- The keyboard shortcuts are now working

### Changed
- Now the `HOME` ENV variable is optional. If this is not set, the LiteXL 
  folder will be used to create user's `.config` folder
