why can't search be used?

I wonder if there isn't a way to sort the list and then do a search replace? In the help file it says: For example \(tu\) \1 matches the string "tu tu". I can't make it work by sorting a list and then searching for the same pattern on consecutive lines. However, I stripped out trailing spa...

Sidebar function "menu"

Can you explain this more clearly? Sorry for the...

macro with clipping?

As much as I love TextPad, I prefer reading Gutenberg books formatted. I have been chugging along, tagging a few texts from Gutenberg for formatting, using the Clip Library to make sure I don't forget any of those pesky closing tags.

replace in multiple files

Please, please, consider this feature in future versions! I can search within all files in a folder. I can open all the files in the search results and then do a search/replace on all open files.
