Please?

Please consider adding support to upload/sync configuration settings, snippets and syntax files using a cloud service like Google Drive, OneDrive, DropBox, AWS, etc. The Portable feature is nice, but it would be nice to have an automatic backup like that. Notepad++ has this feature, but it could be ...

Rather than sifting through hundreds of enhancement requests, it would be nice to see a prioritized "Top 10" or "Top 20" (etc.) to vote on. It doesn't look like much hash been done with respect to new features in a while, mostly bug fixes, so maybe this could help Helios focus on...

I uninstalled TextPad 6 from my Windows 7 desktop before getting a new computer with Windows 8. I installed TextPad 6 and try to paste the license code into the "Register TextPad" form, but it keeps saying "These license details are not correct. Please check your input, or contact sal...

I'm confused by an issue with using the "Tools" feature in TextPad 6 with respect the following example VBScript code. I am working on a Windows 7 (SP1) 64-bit computer. Set objShell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell") wscript.echo objShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%programfile...

Can anyone recommend a good syntax definition file for working with HTA (HTML script) files?

The license data is stored in the Registry under HKCU for whomever registers it, so you'd have to push the registry import using a "per-user unattended" deployment.

When I enter a UNC path for the target folder in the Find in Files form, it hangs for a long time, but refuses to resolve the UNC path. This seems to happen more with Admin shares (C$) but still occurs with other shares frequently. Running it on Windows 7 Enterprise, 64-bit with SP1.

If you run the following code on a Windows 7 64-bit computer using the latest version of TextPad, it displays incorrect results for expanded environment variables through VBscript (cscript.exe). If you run the same code outside of TextPad it displays correctly. Set objShell = CreateObject("Wscr...

I'd rather see a web-hosted version than another OS port.

With TextPad 5.4.2 running on a Windows 7 64-bit host, if I run the following code using a tool set for "cscript.exe", it returns the results shown below... Set objShell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell") wscript.echo objShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%programfiles%") wsc...

This may not be a bug, but it seems odd to me: Using 5.4, if a file resides on a remote location which becomes unavailable, if I even click on the document tab, TextPad becomes unresponsive for a full minute before I can close the tab. I've repeated this on XP SP3, Windows 7 32-bit, and Windows 7 64...

Why not make it so you can assign a preferred action to the middle button, rather than just one? Same as the keyboard assignments are done now.

I've tried the macros for commenting lines of code, but they seem to work best for only certain languages. I would like to see a menu/keyboard feature to "Comment/Uncomment" selected lines where it uses the comment setting from the syntax file for the detected document class. I should be a...

I would rather it not try to detect the class based on the first line of code. I encounter quite a few files that are not the expected language based upon the first few lines inside the file. I would rather it assume the class based on the filename extension, BUT, I would like to see the option to a...
