re: -save settings numeric machine name bug

Thanks!

I had to delete "%userprofile%\Local Settings\Application Data\TextCrawler\TextCrawler.settings" created by v2.0. Thought I'd post in case other people have problem after upgrade.

I still like this tool a lot, but unfortunately v2.1 didn't solve my problem where text files of 65MB+ sometimes cause errors. Some work fine, others make TextCrawler generate an error:

"Error Reading C:\Temp\reasonably_large_file.for"

It is a bit annoying, because I have to search through these large files quite a lot.

My machine: WinXP SP3 - 2GB RAM - Core 2 Duo 3GHz

TC has a problem with encoding detection when it is UTF without BOM. TC detects encoding as ANSI. TC is unable to find national symbols when I tried to search files containing them. For test purposes I've used a very simple text file contain two words "Test" in English and Russian. Total file size is 12 bytes (4 for english and 8(2*4) for Russian).

I've uploaded a screenshot which is description of the problem.

Could you check it, please?

Thank you.

p.s. One of the earlier versions of TC2 was able to find and display such files correctly.
