Not as simple as this for me, I'm on WinXP. In RRBeatty's instructions, if you don't see an 'Advanced' button, select 'Restore' first, then 'Advanced' appears. Then (if had to click Restore first), instead of "Edit", you need to do "New", and enter "open" in the first b...

What do you mean by 'nothing worked'? As I said, I don't use the SDK, so it may be a case of the blind leading the blind, but...

I don't develop in java, but a search of textpad's help for 'SDK' gave back just 2 hits, one of which was entitled "How to Use with the Java Development Kit".

Now I know Help in a lot of software is pitiful, but in the main, you can trust TextPad.

Here it is. Create a tool that execs your perl file with two params:- [path]\INCL.pl $File $SelWord Note that "$SelWord" either selects the word around the cursor if there isn't already a selection made, else it uses the selection as is. The INCL.pl file contains:- #!perl my $f = $ARGV[0];...

"Find All" in Search Results window.

This has been touched on before, but no poll. I come from a mainframe/Roscoe (command line-based editor) background where the command "INCL" (include) is ubiquitous - which as you might guess, displays a list of all lines containing the string you specify. If the Find dialogue had an optio...

Select other file during drag/drop via Document Selector

I have too many files open to use document tabs, instead I use the Document Selector. When copying by dragging text from one window to another, using doc tabs, hovering over the window-tab in question in the doc tabs causes that window to become focused. I would like the same thing to happen if I ho...

Dear all, I raised a bug report, not specifically to get the old way re-instated (that would be an enhancement request, and there already is one of those), but because the Tool Output window maintains focus after double-clicking, which is clearly wrong. The nice people at Helios have provided me wit...

I've never been able to redo after a file save, I just presumed it was not intended to happen - the option is only for 'undo' explicitly according to the label against the checkbox. I can UNdo after a save, and have always been able to, which is generally more useful to me, though there have been oc...

Oh and of course now I can't change the size of my Tool Output bar (neé Command Results window) without either reducing the amount of space available to my other documents, or having it hide what's behind it. I'd much rather you focused on fixing existing problems (see prev post by me) than introdu...
