Can long files be edited comfortably inside FinchStory?
This release moves the built-in editor from simply opening files toward being practical for real editing, especially with long files and repeated changes.
The short answer
Yes. The editor now supports long-file scrolling, line numbers, cursor position, encoding status, quick save, and Tab indentation, while keeping your reading position steadier.
Long files are practical to work with
The editor can scroll through long files and shows line numbers, row/column position, and encoding status, making code, configuration, and longer text easier to navigate.
Common editing actions take fewer steps
Quick save and Tab indentation bring editing closer to familiar text and code editor behavior.
Edits no longer move you away from your place
Scroll position is preserved more reliably after edits and saves. Image-generation waiting animations now also adapt to Light and Dark appearance.
