I've dropped TP about six months ago and come back here for amusement, as this is a very entertaining social experiment. There is no way to put it other than Helios is abusive to their loyal followers. The "silence treatment", vague and empty promises, disrespect, and above all arrogance, just shout ...

I have not been here for a while, mainly because the email I had on this profile is no longer active (I started this thread.) Good to see the discussion. I'm in Linux land now and abandoned TextPad as a working tool (still have it on my private laptop for minor stuff.) Reading the thread, I find it ...

No, I don't need a roadmap, and I don't expect one. A clear NG post would suffice. TP is significant enough in my work to be considered in future plans.

Thanks for pointing out the message you quoted.

Folks, This is not childish nor petty. TextPad is a PRODUCT ! I payed for it and I think I deserve to know if it is going to be updated. The fact that some people (including myself) get emotionally attached to this piece of code, should not mask out the fact that it needs updates AND support. If it ...

I post this with some sadness, but maybe this post and poll will motivate Helios to respond.

Heck, Helios, show some signs of life, for starters!

[rwm], I could not agree with you more. I've been using TP for more than 5 years now on pretty much a daily basis. I love it. However, I am getting frustrated with the lack of input from Helios regarding the future of TP. I'd like to know! At this point, I am pretty much sticking with windows just ...

I love textpad! and when I think of going linux-only on my next machine (at home AND at work), textpad is the only thing I will truly miss. It's too bad, because more likely than not, I will leave textpad behind
cheers.

what I'd like to see is that every entry
would be instrted at the top, rather than
in alphabetic order.

I agree with the OP. I like the light on dark scheme like some of the defaults in the unix editors. It would be great if it was a 1 button thing rather than needing to recustomize the whole syntax definition (yes, i am too lazy to do it for ALL the definitions). It would be good to have it part of ...

hey, a fellow slug!
whatever works.

All,
How about being able to change the colors of the side bar?
(document selector, clip library...)
I like grey text on black...
thoughts?

hey, you are right.
was this added in the last version??
anyway, that enhancement was quick
thanks for pointing that out.

OK, I am taking the initiative to create a poll for this thread. the idea is simple: search & replace an argument in ALL open files. very useful for HTML and HDL editing... This function is common in other editors and frankly, I do not think one should use an external tool for it. thoughts? please ...

Well,
CNTRL-F5 is for searching multiple files, not replacing the argument in multiple file (unless I am missing simething)
in multipl files.
