Changes Since v4.19.08.r2356

• Encoding and code page for resource files are changed to UTF-8, see more info on wiki Localization. bb97bc66a66950901e7e7de3d174af99dbee783c and b7f42d7719b851cf6563a67cb3f4f60ab8a7cc70
• New polling mode for file watching, which is useful for watching continuously updated file, such as log files (issue #120). 0618a11bf783a7b7d5fa8817f0f85ced8e934814
• New option to keep caret at document end after reloading, useful for watching log files (issue #120). By default caret position is unchanged after reloading unless it's on last line, which will stay on last line after reloading. 0618a11bf783a7b7d5fa8817f0f85ced8e934814 and ddb540a3786c2c14012989e0b1fe8871cf8dac4f

• New file extensions for Python (.pyi and .pth) and INI configuration file (.toml). 500b4294d5a4d4d7ce2f0a9a5a4569ec23d59d88 and 3fa8b43ccfb7c0eae995e76569a3594895ed3ed8
• Fix line number width reduced after converting document encoding. dbc7e721dbffdb8025af29b1019771c5630d22bd

• Other bug fix and improvements.

Breaking Changes

• When using StyleContext, multiByteAccess for UTF-8 encoding is disabled by default, as each byte can be safely treated as individual character. lexer need enable useUnicode if it wants to detect Unicode identifier or operator (e.g. using functions from lexlib\CharacterCategory, beware these functions are only valid when internal encoding is UTF-8). 428bef970544a67c1dd041fb66bd6b6abded49ee and 49d79ccb59cda23a76cc5e4c4b5ed769ddabc5ad
