As editor doesn't keep a live stream of the file open, could you please adjust procedure TAdvMemoStrings.LoadFromFile(const FileName: string); after Memo.InternalLines.OnChange := nil; as follows:
Stream := TFileStream.Create(FileName, fmOpenRead or fmShareDenyNone );
try
LoadFromStream(Stream);
finally
Stream.Free;
end;
// inherited LoadFromFile(FileName);
This allows it to open log files that are still in use by an application which is very useful. It should not impact the memo because it doesn't keep the stream open anyway.
