Pasteable Tab Stops

I frequently store the set of tab stops I used to create a file, especially in conjunction with "Convert new tabs to spaces". It would be great if I could simply paste into the Tab stops field a string of tab stops such as, "11,31,41,57,84,109". Currently I have to enter 11 <Set>...

Macro request: Html to Ascii

Greetings all,

Does anyone have a macro that will convert all HTML-encoded characters into their ASCII equivalents for selected text? E.g., change "%2e" to "." ; "%3a" to ":" ; "%2f" to "/" , etc.

Thanks,

Roy Beatty
