Linelark Notepad Studio
What shipped in 1.24.0.
Quick Look in the folder tree
- Click an image, a PDF, an archive or any other file Linelark does not edit, and press Space: it opens in Quick Look, as it does in the Finder. Space or Esc closes it, and clicking another file while it is open shows that one instead.
- Clicking such a file selects it without opening it. Before, the click left nothing selected, so Space had nothing to preview. A selected file can also be moved to the Trash with ⌘⌫, as in the Finder.
Resizing the terminal
- Dragging the top edge of the terminal panel upwards now works in every window. In a window whose sidebar, right-hand panel or welcome page could not shrink any further, the edge stayed where it was while the terminal grew out of sight below the status bar, so its prompt seemed to scroll away.
- With the panel dragged very small, its top edge could end up underneath the terminal, so pressing on it selected text instead of resizing. The edge is now always on top.
Opening a window
- An empty window opens on the welcome page alone, with no blank new 1 tab behind it and no empty split panes beside it.
- The terminal panel no longer reopens by itself when Linelark starts, because opening it starts a shell. It comes back at the height you left it when you open it with ⌃`.
Known limits in 1.24.0
- Space previews only files Linelark does not open as text. A text, Markdown or SVG file opens in a tab when clicked, and ↑ and ↓ do not yet move the selection in the folder tree.
- When a window is too short for both, the bottom of the sidebar or the right-hand panel is cut off rather than the terminal being limited.
- The universal Studio download requires macOS 14 or later. Touch ID and Mac-password vault unlocking use the provisioning profile included in the signed build; password and recovery-key access remain available without it.
