Regularly rebased to lite-xl master and re-built to include additional features:

• Builds with LuaJIT (if possible) for an overall performance increase (#880)
• Autodetection of file encodings and conversion support (#1161)
• Threading Support (#830):
  • Open Project File not limited to core.max_project_files (5-10x faster)
  • Search in Project Files (5-10x faster)
• Improved Scale handling (#1347)
• Native font meta data reading (2x+ faster) (#1028)

Notes

• When installing on MacOS from the .dmg file (since Lite XL is not signed anymore) you will need to clear the App attributes in order to be able to launch it. To do so open the terminal and run xattr -cr /Applications/Lite\ XL.app, afterwards you should be able to launch Lite XL normally.

Addons vs non-addons packages

The addon packages besides including the Lite XL binary also include additional plugins to make the initial experience more accesible. The extra features the addon packages include are:

• All language plugins.
• All color scheme plugins.
• Widgets + settings gui plugin for easier configuration.
• Open externally plugin, which detects if a file been open is valid utf-8 and offers to open it externally if not.
