...and I just noticed that each document's window shows the wrong shortcut for its system menu: ALT+F4. Other MDI applications do it as expected and display "CTRL+F4". (the system menu is the window menu you get when you click on the window's icon, located at the topleft corner - works for every ...

Sounds like you did everything right. There are different approaches to find out things: Make sure you actually use the version you think you use: start TextPad the same way you started it when you discovered that all settings were missing, then in the menu Help > About TextPad see if you really use ...

TextPad 8.1.2 remembers its window position for me. As your question is slightly ambiguous: you want TextPad to start and display its window on a given position, right? "Screen" is a technical term, as in having 2 or even more monitors - but I think you don't want to instruct TextPad to be displayed ...

I want to do this in the course of a running instance of Textpad, not at the time I boot the program Now we're getting closer - that's what I meant in describing how one can reproduce your experience. Yes: CTRL+O in TextPad to open (an existing) file, but then in the "file name" textbox entering a ...

just a little "you can't do that, and here's why" dialog So we're talking about a dialog of Windows , not belonging to TextPad ? Any Windows 10 users able to get a new file created simply by trying to open it, before it exists? Well, do the same with Notepad , which always comes with Windows ...

Cannot reproduce with 8.1.2x64 on Win7x64 - when invoking TextPad.exe nothing I get this dialog: http://abload.de/img/tpqus1d.png Unless this really is a Windows 10 thing it is important how you get your error message, speak: which is the command line that has been used?

I can't follow you: your initial request was to "restore" preferences - and this is it. With any installation you just overwrite existing files with these files - there's no need to understand XML (unless you wanted something else which you yet didn't wrote so far).

There's no next step: you asked for the files, there you have them.

I don't feel the need to give you examples While I'm "doomed" to not understand why it's "convenient" to you all others (including those programming TextPad ) might not see a good reason to implement your requests either. It's not entirely about me - this is a topic, not a private message.

In said folder all the files are there. Until you don't say what exactly doesn't "work" I assume you did it wrong or haven't even tried going down folder by folder.

A less direct approach would be to search for ConfigState.xml or *.TPM (the macros you created).

You never mentioned PHP files - that's a different thing. PHP 5.6 and I don't get errors. Seems like it is no longer a problem. No, this is still a problem: BOMs are considered direct output (as with everything that comes before <?php ), and depending on what you want to achieve this can be ignored ...

Because Textpad still guesses the encoding when there is no indicator. And from case to case it either guesses right, or wrong. Read this and then consider saving your files with a BOM, so Textpad is able to always recognize them as UTF-8.

I can top that: an HTML element (or "tag") can span across multiple lines and attributes don't have to be enclosed in quotations under certain conditions - this is perfectly legal:

Code: Select all

<a

 title=two

If the status bar would be configurable then you could get a permanent panel in there. However, I disagree with all of you: in 10+ years I never needed to always know which encodings the file has, and it didn't matter until I would (re)save it. So can you give me a few examples on why you need this ...
