The new behaviour (by default) is open the folder in "Folder as
Workspace". The old behaviour is open all files in folder (recursively).
Now user can choose it.
Closes#2175
As of now npp installer is not using any compression to reduce the installer size. I don't know if there is any history behind not using any compression algorithm.
But I noticed a reasonable difference after using /SOLID lzma compression technique. It reduces the installer size by 30~35%.
If we uses /FINAL lzma, it is improved by 15~18%.

-quitOnEmpty command line flag makes Notepad++ to quit when the last tab is closed. Useful for people who use Notead++ for things like editing Git commit messages (using -multiInst -notabbar -nosession), and want to signal they are done editing by closing the tab with Ctrl-W instead of Alt-F4.

This option configures the vertical scroll range of Scintilla.
Disable this will configure the scroll range to end at last line
(DEFAULT).
Enable this will configure the scroll range to end one page beyond the
last line.
Closes#2032
Added some more Change Case functions (Title Case, Sentence Case,
Invertcase, Randomcase).
Some of them have a normal and a blend version. The normal version will
change any formatting in the start/middle/end part of the word/sentence to
the chosen case. The blend version applies the changes only to the start
part but don't changes the middle/end part of the word/sentence. You can
use it when you want to keep some formatting in the middle/end part, for
instance CamelCase or proper nouns.
Closes#2031
Improved the Single Line Comment/Uncomment/Toggle behaviour for Lexers
with the following condition:
Single Line Comment Symbol : false
Stream Comment Symbol Start : true
Stream Comment Symbol End : true
This includes among others: XML, HTML, CSS, Caml, Pascal, ...
In the current Npp a 'Single Line Comment' will do a 'Block Comment' and
the 'Toggle Single Line Comment' entry does nothing at all for these kind
of Lexers.
This implementation uses the stream comment symbols (start/end) to
accomplish a single line comment,
exactly the same way as the usual Single Line Comment/Uncomment/Toggle
functionality does for Lexers with a single line symbol.
This will add more consistency to the Single Line Comment feature.
NOTE
The selection range behaviour has been revised to be more accurate and for
fixing some 'line leaving' bugs when uncommenting.

Added a basic conflict detection functionality to the Shortcut Mapper.
This includes:
* Marking conflicts with a different background color.
* Displaying conflict information.
* Warning when attempting to assign an already existing short-key.
Some more related changes to the Shortcut Mapper:
* Fixed some bugs, for instance:
1. Babygrid was shrinking on any attempt to adjust its position to integral
rows.
2. Context menu entries were enabled for empty lists. Using them would crash
Npp.
3. ... some more minor bug fixes.
* Performance enhancements to Babygrid.
* Minor UI improvements.
* Babygrid is configured dpi aware.
Closes#2061
To reproduce such bug, the file foo.txt to monitor should be in the root folder (ie. c:\foo.txt).
The algorithm is check if folder path has '\' at the end, if no, then add a '\' then append file name.
In the original code, instead of checking folder path, the file name is checked. Since file name doesn't contain '\' (ie. c:\temp), a '\' is always added on folder path which has no '\' at the end. it works for none root folder such as C:\, E:\ or F:\.
Scintilla got a [new Pascal lexer] in version 1.78, which was included in
Notepad++ version 5.4.4. However, this lexer also introduced [new style IDs]
and most of Notepad++'s bundled themes that were created before version 5.4.4
haven't been updated in all that time.

CmdLineParams object of the block "case COPYDATA_PARAMS" is always made
by another instance of Notepad++, (located usually in C:\Program Files

If CmdLineParams structure is modified in the local instance, and file
is opened via NppShell.dll, then crash happeds.
