... and then actually commit them onto the database (assuming you run MariaDB or MySQL): UPDATE phpbb_posts SET post_text= replace( post_text, ''', ''' ) WHERE post_text LIKE '%'%';
UPDATE phpbb_posts SET post_subject= replace( post_subject, ''', ''' ) WHERE post_subject ...

I know what you're talking about: Alt code . There are at least 3 workarounds:
Don't type in the TextPad's editor pane, but instead try it in one of his dialog windows, f.e. one of the textboxes in Search . Does it still work there? If yes, just cut it, leave the dialog, and paste it in the editor ...

the omission of a newline at the end of a text file is usually an error Only in POSIX and Unix environments. However, TextPad usually lives in... well... none of both.

No, I've learnt otherwise. Always implying a newline at the end is an important detail/requirement and is different from dealing ...

Yes, that's the point. If the requirement includes CR or LF then your approach would still delete a potential last line of the file that wouldn't have a CR or LF, which would be wrong.

This board does not allow attachments. Just use one of the countless picture hosters like https://imgbox.com and insert the BBCodes from your uploads into your post. Just like you could have used QUOTE as BBCode already (see the button) for citing your error messages (or text in general, instead of ...

While I understand that there are users who just don't understand certain details: does the installer at least give a choice? Because then I'm forced to install TextPad in a sandbox just to get its binary files, because those surely can be executed in parallel to older versions.

And does the ...

However, this only works for searches/files in ASCII, which seems to be enough for you. Windows' FINDSTR executable cannot deal with Unicode and workarounds are not that great either.

A better approach would be to just use "Find in files" and then only search on that particular file - that way you ...

Tools don't open websites, they start programs (in this case: one of your web browsers). Programs might have implemented a mutex, so only 1 instance of them is running, and starting it multiple times just brings the already running instance to the foreground.

Tools don't send strings, they hand ...

I'm sure not once in your lifetime did you ever minimize one of TextPad's child windows. Because that button is (and has been) disabled.

From a technological point a developer can only choose between displaying all 3 buttons (and disabling the one he doesn't really want), or only displaying the ...

From my experience as both developer and user for 25+ years I can assure you that contact form will annoy away people because they can't provide attachments, such as screenshots. And the communication is hidden between you and the reporter, so nobody else knows what has been reported and what not ...

For those who don't find it: zooming was implemented with 8.5.0.

If you want to investigate you can find ConfigState.xml in your folder %appdata%\Helios\TextPad\8 (just paste that directly into the File Explorer's path line - it should become something like C:\Users\MyName\AppData\Roaming\Helios\TextPad\8 ) and sense that under <Document-Classes> each occurance ...

I've tried going into Preferences / Keyboard, and assigning "HOME" alternatively to LineLeft and LineStart (for others: in the Category "Cursor")

For me the command "LineStart" is assigned with the Home key and it works as intended: the text cursor is moved to the first non-space of the line, and ...

Manipulating my file to have 2 lines with ~4000 characters (and also matches in there to be replaced) took only a little bit longer, but still finished as expected. So maybe it's not about a big filesize, maybe it's only about long lines...?
