I can't reproduce this. What bad output are you seeing from that input? Presumably you've selected Match c ase . Otherwise your command will replace --audio-copy-mask "aac,ac3,eac3,truehd,dts,dtshd,mp3,flac" --audio "1,1,2" --aencoder "fdk_aac,copy:ac3,copy:ac3" with --...

It's under

Search | Replace... (<F8>):

Find what: ([0-9A-F]{2})([0-9A-F]{2})([0-9A-F]{2})([0-9A-F]{2})([0-9A-F]{2})([0-9A-F]{2})
Replace with: $1:$2:$3:$4:$5:$6

You can save that as a macro.

There is a command to copy all file names to the clipboard. It's called EditCopyAllFileNames.
You can assign it to a keyboard shortcut at
Configure | Preferences | Keyboard | Categories: Edit | Commands: EditCopyAllFileNames

It's in ConfigState.xml
in %APPDATA%\Helios\TextPad\8
or %APPDATA%\Helios\TextPad\9
(under <Recent-File-List>).

You might consider saving the other files in those directories. By default, they contain your clip libraries, custom shortcuts, macros, syntax, and user dictionaries,

Of course, you can now keep the recent files list with the workspace if you select
Configure | Preferences | File | Save the recently used file list in workspaces
Sorry!

Agreed.
See https://forums.textpad.com/viewtopic.php?t=13660

The functionality of workspaces could be improved if certain things were (at least optionally) associated with the workspace instead of with TextPad as an application, such as: the recent files list, ( not this; we can already do it ) the search and replacement string lists, the size and position of...

The lists would be more useful if the whole width of the entries were visible together, which would require, as AmigoJack suggests, a resizable window. Also useful would be the means: to attach the search options (whole words, match case, regex, etc.) to each search string, and to attach each replac...

Do you mean that you want to modify some files without changing their modification times? Why would you want to do that? If there is a good reason for it you might: record the files' modification times (perhaps using DIR on the Windows command line); modify the files; change the modification times b...

Close all instances of TextPad. Find your ConfigState.xml file, probably one of these: %APPDATA%\Helios\TextPad\8\ConfigState.xml %APPDATA%\Helios\TextPad\9\ConfigState.xml Save it somewhere safe . Open it in an editor that isn't TextPad. Find this section: <Recent-File-List> <value name="File1...

You need to anchor the match at the end of the line by using the special regex symbol, "$":

Find what: \.$
Replace with: [space or nothing]

Edit: Snap!

You can also assign whatever keyboard shortcuts you like (including 2-keypress ones) to the characters in the list at
Configure | Preferences | Keyboard | Categories: Characters
For characters that aren't in that list you can create macros and assign shortcuts to them.

I don't know which "functions fail" or how, or "what [you are] doing". But you might try this: Close all instances of TextPad. Find your ConfigState.xml file, probably one of these: %APPDATA%\Helios\TextPad\8\ConfigState.xml %APPDATA%\Helios\TextPad\9\ConfigState.xml Save it some...
