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.

As per intention both approaches differ in that the former will not delete a last line in the file and the latter does.

A screenshot of your views on things would help, as for me it looks as expected and it's even in bold:

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 install...

You can even install both on the same account of any Windows installation, not just the same "computer".

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...

I'm sure almost 20 years ago you were already able to use BBCode which could have formatted your code examples much better, especially preserving whitespaces. Why you chose to not do so is beyond my understanding, because it should be trivial enough for anybody dealing with code. Also it's common us...

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 over...

I wonder what you attempted, because there are at least 2 ways: Most obvious one: check the search and its options , like "Search for Author" and "Display results as: [Posts]" and "Return first [All available] characters of posts". Works for any author, including you yo...

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 &quo...

And the communication is hidden between you and the reporter, so nobody else knows what has been reported and what not. H...

Care to upload both HTML files and your syntax file, speak: all 3 files in one archive? And state which version you use? It would be a great way to at least have a chance to reproduce this issue.
