This is how I'd write it, putting the commas in front and avoiding needless indention, and using 1-3 tab characters in front of the operator right away when typing: and then someone views it with a different tab width ... Apart from other reasons why it were nice to have an alignment tool that uses...

As the feature is called word wrap, it wraps at word boundaries.

If there are no word boundaries, it does not wrap.

Alt-F3 opens Explorer for the current file's folder for me - using Microsoft compatibility for keyboard.

terrypin, in your other thread of today you mention Textpad version 7.6.4 - I am not sure, but wasn't Unicode support introduced in version 8.0?

for you it might be easier to type multiple times Ctrl-Tab and then Ctrl-F4, for me it is easier to use the mouse and click directly on the tab I want to close ... Other editors (e.g. Notepad++ or IntelliJ)permanently show the close button on the tab ... Not using tabs doesn't help - as not all docu...

Show Tab close buttons permanently

Do I not see the option to permanently display the close button on the document tabs? Currently, the close button is only visible on the current document. If I want to close one of the other documents, I first need to click the tab, and then only can click the close button (and with luck, the tab I ...

It was quite convenient - in a folder with loads of file just type the requested file name - if it exists, it was open, otherwise created. Now I have to cancel the file open, c...
