TSE Downloads

Windows TSE Download

General pre-download info

Windows TSE installs both the GUI and Console version of the editor.

Its license gives broad permissions for use and distribution, and makes extreme disclaimers of warranty and liability.

You can simply install the latest TSE version over any previous TSE version since TSE 2.8. In other words, you do not need to install intermediate versions to upgrade TSE.

Often Semware does not supply the installation zip file on their website with the helper files "setup_as_administrator.cmd", "setup_as_user.cmd", and "readme.txt": In such cases I do add them to the installation zip file on my website to provide a better user experience.

TSE's built-in Help system is almost completely that of TSE Pro 4.4 (2005). There have been lots of fixes and new features since then, which are listed in the installed read.me file instead.

Windows TSE 4.49f - 24 Feb 2023

tse-setup-4.49f.zip

Release notes:

EditFile(" ") - loaded a file with garbage in the name. It should produce a picklist. Fixed.
Templates were being expanded even when not found for the current file extension. Fixed. Added template expansion on/off to the menu.
File Manager macro: allow to view buffers. ListFile() did not always allow viewing unloaded files.

Installation and update tips

Before installation

ALWAYS MAKE A BACK-UP OF YOUR EXISTING TSE FOLDER BEFORE INSTALLING A NEW TSE VERSION!

The installation mostly works by simply overwriting TSE's own files, although for those files it will overwrite, it will first make a back-up in a new <bak999> folder in the TSE folder.

In practice a lot of users have changed one of Semware's user interface files (brief.ui, tse.ui, tsejr.ui, win.ui, ws.ui), which will be overwritten by the installation. Here are some ways to cope with this.

A solution I do not advise is to after the installation compare the new Semware file with your old one in the <bak999> folder, copy your own changes to the new file, and recompile the new user interface file as a macro to reinstall it.
The dowsides of this solution are, that you would have to do this for every TSE upgrade, and will probably have to spend this extra time when it is inconvenient.

The solution I advise is to copy your Semware user interface file to a new .ui name, and install that UI instead by recompiling the new .ui file as a macro.
Benefits are, that this way your user interface never gets overwritten, and is automatically recompiled and reinstalled by future TSE installations if your old TSE installation is newer than v4.41.44.
You do not get Semware's rare fixes and improvements to their .ui files, but you can compare their relevant .ui file to yours whenever it is convenient to you.
For example, I could one time copy win.ui to win_carlo.ui, and compile win_carlo.ui. From then on win_carlo.ui will not be overwritten by TSE updates, and newer TSE versions will recompile it during their installation.
The new installation will immediately work with your own UI, and you can check for any Semware changes if and when it suits you.
Important tip: If you made your changes in as few places as possible and as additions instead of changes to Semware's code, then it is relatively easy to compare your own user interface to Semware's new one, and to copy those Semware changes you want to your own .ui file.

The installation

Unzip the zip file into a separate folder.

Read the readme.txt file, and select a run command.

The installation will ask you which folder to install to.

If you install to your existing TSE folder, then the installation tries to keep many of your settings!

If your old TSE is version v4.41.44 or higher, then the installation can see what your old user interface file was and reinstalls it automatically.
Otherwise you will be asked for the last time which Semware user interface to install. The default is the Windows one (win.ui).

The installation will keep all settings from TSE's "Full Configuration" menu except those from the sub-sub-menu "Configure SyntaxHilite Mapping Sets".

The installation will keep the Potpourri menu's descriptions for those macros, for which Semware does not distribute its own description.

Semware has been working on a next release.

Installation tips

Linux TSE does not come with an installation program or installation instructions.

Here are my tips to get you started.

First time installers

In this example the release file "tse-linux-4.48.tgz" is installed in the user's home directory.

Note: The .tgz file contains a top "tse" directory that contains all other files and subdirectories of a probably already working TSE installation.

Copy the tse-linux-4.48.tgz file to the /home/<username> directory.

Extract the file's content:

cd /home/<username>
tar xvfz tse-linux-4.48.tgz

Make sure that:
Either you have "rwx" permissions on "tse" and all its subdirectories, that you have "rw" permissions on all its files, that you have "rwx" permissions on the files "e" and "sc32", and that that people who are not allowed to change your TSE have no permissions.
Or bluntly give yourself all permissions and others no permissions on the "tse" directory and everything within:

chmod -R u+rwx,go-rwx /home/<username>/tse

In an exceptional case Semware did forget to precompile some of their own distributed macros. If TSE ever gives you a "Macro compiled with wrong sc" error, then you need to execute the following commands:

cd /home/<username>/tse
./sc32 'mac/*.s'
./sc32 'mac/*.si'

You can now start TSE:

/home/<username>/tse/e

Next time installers

In this example description the bash shell is used to upgrade the user's existing TSE installation in directory "/home/<username>/tse" using the example release file "tse-linux-4.48.tgz".

MAKE A COPY / BACK-UP OF YOUR EXISTING LINUX TSE DIRECTORY:

cd /home/<username>
cp -R tse tse_<today's date>

Backup your TSE settings:
Start TSE, and go to the menu Options, Full Configuration, Write Settings to ASCII file, and enter a filename like "tse_settings_<today's date>.s".
Default it is saved to the user's home directory.

Extract the .tgz file in a temporary directory:

cd /home/<username>
mkdir tmp
cp tse-linux-4.48.tgz tmp
cd tmp
tar xvf tse-linux-4.48.tgz

Copy the new "tse" directory over your old "tse" directory:

cd /home/<username>
cp -R tmp/tse/* tse

Assume that TSE got an updated compiler version, and recompile all your own macros:

cd /home/<username>
tse/sc32 'tse/mac/*.s'

In an exceptional case Semware forgot to recompile some of their own distributed macros. If TSE ever gives you an "Macro compiled with wrong sc" error, then you should also recompile Semware's "inhouse" macros:

cd /home/<username>
tse/sc32 'tse/mac/*.si'

Start TSE and open the saved settings file:

cd /home/<username>
tse/e tse_settings_<today's date>.s

Compile and execute the file with the Macro, Compile menu,
save your reinstalled settings with the menu: Options, Save Current Settings,
and close TSE.

If you tweaked your old TSE by modifying Semware files, then you probably need to copy those files from the copy of your old TSE installation and recompile them in the new tse installation.

Any other tweaks you made might need additional steps. Let me know if I missed a step that applies to everyone.

Windows/Linux TSE compatibility

You cannot exchange or share .mac files between Windows TSE and Linux TSE.

It usually works when you copy .s and .ui files between Windows TSE and Linux TSE and recompile them on the target system.

While Linux TSE is largely a reimplementation of the Windows version, there are some unresolved and unresolvable incompatibilities. Most remarked upon has been, probably by Windows users, that Linux TSE has no mouse support and that lots of combined keys do not work.

Semware has been working on a next release.
If you are not afraid of possibly having to adapt to a change or having to work around an error, then you can try this release candidate:

Dos TSE Download

tse250e.zip

This is TSE 2.5e for Dos and 16-bit Windows versions (i.e. up to and including the Windows 98 variants), as originally sold by Semware in 1997, and since 2022 made available as freeware.

Installation tips

TSE 2.5e is a Dos program. Such programs run in ms-dos and in Windows versions up to and including Windows 98. Dos programs do not run directly in modern operation systems, because they require a 16-bit processor. The way to run a 16-bit Dos program in a newer Windows version is by running it indirectly through a virtual machine. Here I will describe a simplistic way and a robust way to do that, based on Windows 10 being my host operating system.

The simplistic way uses DosBox, which is a virtual machine and Dos in one program. Its advantages are, that it is very easy to install and use and that it is very easy to exchange files between Windows and Dos. Its disadvantage is, that its Dos shell is not helpful.
The robust way uses VirtualBox and FreeDOS.
The advantages of VirtualBox are, that it safely separates your host computer from its virtual computers, and that you can save and restore "snapshots" of any state of a virtual computer. Its disadvantage is, that it is (with a Dos client a lot) more work to exchange files with it.
The advantages of FreeDOS are, that it is user friendly, well documented, and support tools are available for it.

None of these programs costs money.

Install TSE 2.5e in DosBox 0.74-3 in Windows 10

1. Install TSE 2.5e

First create a Windows folder where you want to store your future DosBox programs, including TSE.
Here we will use "D:\DosBox".
Because the ancient Dos must understand all this too, be aware, that all the folder and file names we use for this must be at most 8 ASCII characters long, with extensions of at most 3 ASCII characters, and none may contain spaces.
Unzip tse250e.zip to D:\DosBox.
This creates a subfolder "D:\DosBox\tse250e".

2. Install DosBox

Go to DosBox -> Downloads, and download the Windows version.
Run the downloaded "DOSBox0.74-3-win32-installer.exe", and answer its few simple questions.
Either select Windows Start menu -> DosBox -> DosBox Options, or run "C:\Program Files (x86)\DOSBox-0.74-3\DOSBox 0.74-3 Options.bat".
These will open an unsaved file "C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Local\DOSBox\dosbox-0.74-3.conf" in Notepad.
Either make DosBox configuration changes here directtly, or do a File, Save from Notepad, and then use TSE to edit the file.
Go to the bottom of the .conf file, and add the following lines to the "[autoexec]" section:
mount C D:\DosBox
PATH=%PATH%;C:\tse250e
C:
The "mount" command will create a simulated "C:" drive in DosBox that will actually be the "D:\DosBox" folder.
Warning: Near the beginning of the file there is a line "fullscreen=false". If you set this to "fullscreen=true", or use <Alt Enter> during DosBox to toggle fullscreen mode, then in my experience DosBox and TSE 2.5e will look awesome, but the windows of all my other open applications were resized to really small sizes!
Save the the .conf file.
You can now start DosBox, either from the Windows Start menu or from its Desktop shortcut.
In DosBox type "e" to start TSE 2.5e.
Type "exit" to leave DosBox.
Note: DosBox starts a "DosBox Status Window" in the background that you can ignore.

Install TSE 2.5e in VirtualBox in FreeDOS in Windows 10

1. Install VirtualBox

VirtualBox has significant requirements to be able to install and run it. Read them.
Download VirtualBox , here select the version for "Windows hosts", which as I write this downloads "VirtualBox-7.0.4-154605-Win.exe".
Install VirtualBox with its default selections.
You can ignore the warning about Python bindings. If you do not know what those are, then you do not need them. Proceed: Yes.
Finish.

2. Download FreeDOS

Go to the FreeDOS home page.
Download the LiveCD version, as I write this "FD13-LiveCD.zip"
Above the download link there is a link named "Verify your downloaded files".
It leads to a a page with various checksums for each downloadable file.
For example, it lists a "sha512sum" for the "FD13-LiveCD.zip" file.
After you download the file, it must have the same checksum, or the download went wrong.
You can determine the "sha512sum" of the downloaded file from the commandline from the file's folder with:
certutil -hashfile FD13-LiveCD.zip SHA512
For other checksums see "certutil -hashfile -?".
The certutil command comes with Windows 10. If you have 7-zip installed, then you can right-click on the file to get its SHA256 checksum.

3. Install FreeDOS in VirtualBox

Unzip the downloaded "FD13-LiveCD".
Here we will create the folder "D:\FD13-LiveCD", and unzip "FD13-LiveCD.zip" to it.
Create a folder where VirtualBox may store its future virtual machines.
Here we will create the folder "D:\VirtualBox".
Start VirtualBox.
Select the "New" button to start creating a new virtual machine.
At the bottom of the popped-up window, select "Expert Mode" instead of "Guided Mode".
Under "Name and Operating System" we here enter:
Name: FReeDOS
Folder: D:\VirtualBox
ISO Image: D:\FD13-LiveCD\FD13LIVE.iso
(You can browse to the .iso file by selecting the down-arrow-head on the right, followed by "Other".)
Type: Other
Version: DOS
Under "Hard Disk" change the "Hard Disk File Type and Variant" to "VHD (Virtual Hard Disk)".
(We need this later to be able to access the virtual hard disk from Windows.)
(Do not worry about the large hard disk size of the virtual machine. Because "Pre-allocate Full Size" is not selected, the virtual hard disk will only use as much of the physical hard disk as it actually needs for its files.)
Finish. The window closes.
On the left "FreeDos (Powered Off)" is selected.
Select "Start".
A FreeDos installation window pops up.
This installation program is already running in the virtual machine.
Use the right Ctrl key to leave this virtual machine window.
Use standard Windows methods to return to it.
Select "Install to harddisk".
Select respectively:
English (or whatever you prefer).
Yes - Continue with the installation.
Yes - Partition drive C:
(This is the C: drive of the virtual machine, not the C: drive of your actual computer.)
Yes - Please reboot now
Select "Install to harddisk" again.
Select respectively:
English.
Yes - Continue with the installation.
Yes - Please erase and format drive C:
(Still the C: drive of the virtual machine.)
Yes - Please reboot now
Select respectively:
US English (Default)
Full installation including applications and games
Yes - Please install FreeDOS 1.3
Yes - Please reboot now
Select "Boot from system harddisk".
On the "C:\>" prompt type "shutdown".
The virtual machine window closes.
Select the "Settings" button, then "Storage" on the left, then right-click in the middle pane on the .iso file, and select "Remove Attachment", "Remove", and the "OK" button.
Done!
The next time FreeDOS is started, it will boot from its virtual harddisk without asking.

4. Install TSE 2.5e in FreeDOS in VirtualBox

VirtualBox shows us all kinds of connections we can theoretically make to our virtual machines, like through a network, a serial port, a USB drive, or shared folders, but a basic DOS installation does not understand any of these!
There is however this awesome trick to copy files between a host Windows 10 machine and a virtual machine, IF the virtual machine is implemented as a .vhd (virtual hard disk) file. (Like we did earlier!)
The following steps make a .vhd file acessible in Windows' File Explorer as a drive:
SHUTDOWN THE VIRTUAL MACHINE IF IT IS RUNNING!
Accessing a virtual machine's harddisk from the host computer is incompatible with the virtual machine running at the same time!
Right-click Start or press <Windows X>.
Select "Disk Management" (<k>).
In the "Disk Management" window, select "Action", "Attach VHD". Select "Browse", and browse to and select the "D:\VirtualBox\FreeDOS\FreeDOS.vhd" file.
"OK".
For example using Windows File Explorer you can now copy files between Windows and the virtual harddisk of the virtual machine.
WARNING again: DOS is not case-sensitive, but it only understands file names of at most 8 ASCII characters, extensions of at most 3 ASCII characters, and no spaces in either of them.
Unzip "tse250e.zip" file somewhere in the host computer, and for example using Windows File Explorer copy the resulting "tse250e" directory to the virtual computer's drive.
When you are done, then in Windows File Explorer right-click the virtual drive, and select "Eject".
Done!
It is now safe to start the virtual machine.
When started and the "c:\>" prompt shows, the command "tse250e\e" will start TSE 2.5e.
FreeDOS has cool configuration options and possible extensions. It can be fun to delve into them. I got the FTP server working with a tiny bug that had an annoying but simple work-around.

Linux TSE 4.50 release candidate 11 - 2 Sep 2023

tse-linux-4.50-rc11.tgz

This Linux release candidate has been brought up-to-date with the changes of all the Windows release candidates.

Release notes:

New command line options:
- -color
  or
  -color 8
  Force using 8 background colors mode (16 foreground colors).
  This mode works with all Linux terminals and command lines.
- -color 16
  Force using 16 background colors mode (16 foreground colors).
- -color rgb
  Force using 24-bit (16,777,216) background (and foreground) colors mode.
Current logic the editor uses to determines which mode to use:
- If TERM environment variable = "xterm256", then use 24-bit color mode.
- else if TERM environment variable includes the word "xterm", then use 16 color mode,
- else use 8 color mode.
The new command line options override this.
GetColorTableValue() and SetColorTableValue() now work, as long as the editor is in 24-bit color mode. This means that the setpalette macro now works in Linux-land if 24-bit color mode is in use.
If the editor issues a warning before the output system has been initialized, it can cause it to crash. Fixed. [ Note from Carlo: I think that was an old, already fixed bug. I reported a remaining imperfection with Warn(): I will test whether that is now fixed. ]

tse-setup-4.50-rc10.zip

Release notes:

Fix bug in setting SpecialEffects. Essentially, the range checking did not take the new _TOP_RT_POPUPS_ into consideration.
New command: integer EditPopWin(title, x1, y1, width, height, boxtype box) Will change x1, y1, based on SpecialEffects settings. Then calls PopWinOpen. Probably needs a better name - suggestions welcome.
Minor update to grep macro - use a EditPopWin() to open the initial window. This command respects configured window positioning, unlike PopWinOpen.
Added some new color setups to setpalette: Campbell Starman LinuxShell MiniBasic Carlo1 softcga2
Fixed bug in sc32: #define FOO = 123 Causes sc32 to crash.
If no default size is specified, we let Windows pick. But sometimes Windows picks weird sizes. So if no default specified, and Windows picks a strange size (e.g., really small, or really large), use 44 rows by 100 columns.
Minor update to file manager macro (f.s) - If a file is loaded from an archive, append original name to the temp name.
By default, turned off the new highlighting in block option.
Update GotoMark(mark) so that it always returns true, unless mark is not defined.

Linux TSE 4.48 - 29 Nov 2022

tse-linux-4.48.tgz

Release notes:

All ui files have been updated.
In all ui's, the editor now merges the recent files list with the disk version, if the file on disk has changed relative to the one in memory. It isn't perfect, but it is (I think) better than losing recent filenames when you run multiple instances of the editor.
grep: Fixed a bug in grep-list processing that could crash the editor.
listopen: updated sort, now uses <alt w> to write (save), <alt s> to sort.
sort: fixed a bug where the ignore case option was ignored with kill dupes. Thanks to Knud Van Eeden for the report.
compile: doesn't work on a read-only drive.
Several (or a dozen) keywords added to SAL syntax highlighting.
GetShortPath(): Should not remove quotes from files with spaces in the name
f (filemanager): Did not support viewing zip files on UNC paths
Added "Program" to signon screen.
UpdateBufferDaTmAttr([string filename]) changed to support an optional filename. If passed, the current buffer's info is updated from that filename. Useful when you have a system buffer backing a diskfile, but the name of the buffer is not the same as the diskfile.
_STATE_BUSY_: new built-in constant, returned by QueryEditState().
Fixed a bug in the Linux version, where ExecMacro() on a non-existing macro returns TRUE.
The Linux version did not correctly handle filenames with multiple embedded dots, as in: "foo...bar".

Windows TSE 4.48 - 24 Nov 2022

tse-setup-4.48.zip

Release notes:

All ui files have been updated.
In all ui's, the editor now merges the recent files list with the disk version, if the file on disk has changed relative to the one in memory. It isn't perfect, but it is (I think) better than losing recent filenames when you run multiple instances of the editor.
grep: Fixed a bug in grep-list processing that could crash the editor.
listopen: updated sort, now uses <alt w> to write (save), <alt s> to sort.
sort: fixed a bug where the ignore case option was ignored with kill dupes. Thanks to Knud Van Eeden for the report.
compile: doesn't work on a read-only drive.
Several (or a dozen) keywords added to SAL syntax highlighting.
GetShortPath(): Should not remove quotes from files with spaces in the name
f (filemanager): Did not support viewing zip files on UNC paths
Added "Program" to signon screen.
UpdateBufferDaTmAttr([string filename]) changed to support an optional filename. If passed, the current buffer's info is updated from that filename. Useful when you have a system buffer backing a diskfile, but the name of the buffer is not the same as the diskfile.
_STATE_BUSY_: new built-in constant, returned by QueryEditState().

Windows TSE 4.46 - 17 Sep 2022

tse-setup-4.46.zip

Release notes:

cmpfiles macro updated: now uses built-in CompareLines() function, so files to check are no longer limited by 255 character lines.
where macro: in certain cases, the "~\..." name is passed externally, when it should be using the full-path. Fixed.
filemanager (f) macro: ExpandTilde() needed to be used when called with command line parameters.
random([lo [, hi]]) now accepts > 16 bit integers. Bug fixed if lo and hi are non-zero and equal.
compile macro updated to work when the -i switch is in operation.
Editor updated to better handle tseload.dat and tsesynhi.dat when the -i switch is in operation.

Windows TSE 4.44 - 18 Jun 2022

tse-setup-4.44.zip

Release notes:

Fix problem involving SetFont(...), that appears to only occur on asian-language systems. The problem kept the Fixedsys font from being selected via SetFont("Fixedsys", 9, 0).
Semware fixed the ugly way TSE displayed the Unifont font, with too small characters with too much horizontal and vertical distance between them.
