Error when using "Sort lines" #28

Closed PhilCS closed 1 month ago

PhilCS commented 1 month ago

Whenever I try to use TextFX Tools -> Sort lines, I get the error "This tool is not compatible with binary text. Please select text without [NUL] characters" regardless of which file I try it with. Even a new file with only a single character will throw the error.

I am using the x64 version.

Some other extension or a macro seems to insert a binary character in Notepad? This is not normal! Save your text as it is and send me the file here via drag & drop or via pixeldrain.com.

There were no binary characters in the file. I updated NPP from 8.3.3 to 8.6.5 and the problem is gone, sorting works.
