Fixes crash on launch.
1.4.1

Kodex version 1.4 brings many big improvements and bugfixes. As always, thank you for using Kodex and feel free to reach out with comments and questions. Happy coding!
New features and improvements:
* Support for multiple windows: Drag a document tab out of the app in iPad OS to create a new window.
* Seamlessly drag tabs between open windows to transfer documents between them.

* Drag or scroll over the minimap to quickly scroll through the document, tap or click on the minimap to scroll to that location in the document.
* The landing screen (the screen displayed when no documents are open) now displays your recently opened documents (this info is not available retroactively, but after you open one or more files they will be listed in the landing screen).
* Improved extra tools buttons in toolbar, that now use a system context menu when right-clicked or long-pressed.
* Opening documents from the recents list will also restore the text selections and the scroll position.

More1.3.2
March 5, 2020
This patch update is packed with bug fixes and new features, some that have been requested for a while. As always, thank you for using Kodex and for your positive feedback. Happy coding!
New features:
- When multiple selected ranges are present, you can now drag on the drag handle of the main selection range to adjust the length of all selected text ranges.
- When multiple selected ranges are present, you can now tap on one of the selected ranges to make it the main selected range, and thus move the drag handles to that selected range.
- Added "Save Document As…" feature to allow saving the changed document to a new location without touching the existing file. This feature is most useful if used with autosave turned off.
- Added "Replace All" option to the search-replace feature.
- Added option to turn off displaying line numbers on the left side of the editor.
- Added "plain text" language in the syntax highlight picker to force disabling syntax highlighting.
- When using Control+Shift+Up/Down to add a new selection, or the "Add Caret Above/Below" navigation bar buttons, if the current cursor is a non-zero length selection, the new selection will attempt to match the length of that range
Fixes:
- Fixed bug that caused visual glitches on editor after changing line height
- Fixed bug that caused the selection ranges to be displayed at incorrect locations after changing font, font size, or line height
- Fixed bug that caused the wrong font size to be applied to the source code after changing editor themes
- Fix drawing highlighted text when searching
- Fix alignment of navbar items in the editor view
- Improved performance when handling very large files.
- Fix selection behavior when to using Command+Shift+Left/Right to expand selections to include the rest of the line, which would produce unexpected results depending on the previous movement of the selection cursor
More1.3.1
February 16, 2020
Fixed crash that would sometimes happen when deleting several lines using multi-caret mode.
Fix editor automatically replacing quotes and dashes with "prettier" versions that break code.
Improves highlighter engine to be more reliable, which should solve many crashes that happened during editing.
More1.3
November 21, 2019
This update brings some fixes:
* Minimap now works reliably on iOS 13
* Fix theming issues on iOS 13
* Fix search bar changing to a broken size and placement when switching apps
After many requests by several users, a Tip Jar has been added to Kodex. Tipping is not mandatory for continued usage of Kodex and will not unlock any new features.
More1.2.5
March 8, 2019
This release fixes issues loading documents from third-party providers.
Opening and closing documents should be faster now as well.
More1.2.4
February 27, 2019
This version brings small fixes to the indentation engine and other bug fixes in the code editor.
More1.2.3
November 20, 2018
This update brings support for the new iPad display sizes and improved highlighting/editing performance by rewriting more string handling-related code from Swift to Objective-C and by refactoring existing algorithms. It also fixes some bugs, including the following:
* Fix issue where temporary files could be reloaded with a line count of zero or a negative value.
* Improve support for insertion of provisional text (such as when an accent key is pressed on an external keyboard followed by a letter key to insert a single accented letter).
* Improve highlighting support for multi-line elements (such as JavaScript templates) and for block comments.
* Improve stability of highlighting engine by fixing some off-by-one buffer access crashes.
Please notice: I'm aware of a crash when opening files. However the crash logs do not provide enough data to help me fix that, and I'm not even sure if it's a bug on Kodex or on UIKit. If you are experiencing or have experienced crashes when opening files, please contact me with details via contact@bruno.ph. Thanks!
More1.2.2
September 3, 2018
This update fixes a glicth that would happen on compact layouts when showing the language picker or other full-screen modal views. That glitch would break the text editor and prevent a bunch of behaviors from working properly, including layout updates, scrolling, and many more.

Description of Kodex
Kodex is an advanced code editor which brings powerful and desktop-class editor features to your iPad or iPhone:
* Multi-caret editing, to quickly transform code selections.
* Regex search and replace, with template matching and replace-all-matches.
* Minimap which allows quick scroll navigation though the document.
* Multiple window support
* Syntax highlighting for over 150 languages.
* Trackpad support with custom gestures to add cursors (ctrl+shift+click).
* Auto complete feature (currently only for HTML).
* Add as many guide columns as you wish (default 80 and 120 characters).
* Configurable tab size (default 4 spaces), or insert spaces when pressing tab.
* Draw hints for invisible characters such as new lines, tabs, and spaces.
* Customizable key bindings, so you can configure Kodex to use the same key combos you are already used to.
* Kodex smartly preserves your open documents so that your work stays as you left it between launches.
* Light and Dark modes.
Kodex is integrated with the Files app, so you can easily open files from any other app, and from your iCloud documents folder.
You can launch Kodex QuickEdit from any file sharing view in any app to edit its contents without launching the main Kodex App (be aware this functionality depends on the host app implementing the sharing activity properly).
Included are 10 editor themes, and several monospaced fonts for code editing (you can install your own preferred fonts using system profiles). Font size and line spacing are adjustable, so you can configure Kodex to best fit your preferred screen size, arrangement, and orientation.
Kodex is not a compiler, and you can not build or run the code you edit from it. Think of Kodex as a NotePad++ or Sublime Text substitute for iPhone and iPad.
Kodex is currently optimized for external keyboards, such as Apple's Smart Keyboard for the iPad Pro, or any bluetooth/USB keyboard. More virtual keyboard features will be added in a future version.
