Wanted block select mode. Alt does not seem to work. Tried configure>block select mode in menu but it's greyed out.

ctrl-q changes the cursor to a little pen it seems but b ...I just don't know, maybe I'm not ...

Hi,

Rebol is quite an interest language. There is a syntax highlight for it.

I wanted to set up tools to execute rebol scripts, just like Python or Perl were there's plenty of examples on the web to do it.

Is there a document on how?

Thanks

Textpad complies the java ok. But when I try to run with textpad I get error. I look at dir w/java file and see a bat file made by textpad:

@ECHO OFF
C:
CD "\Documents and Settings\user1\Desktop\java"
"C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_24\bin\java.exe"
PAUSE

There is NO file name for the class file ...

Next time you scrape a big site, usually it all goes into one long string with one eoln at the end. Try what I'm doing. If no one can reproduce it then it will probably never get noticed. The string or line has to be a few hundred k.

Thanks

Another option is to search the web for a program to process the file that CAN handle huge files.

I don't know what kind of thing you're doing but usually you can find the right tool if you look around.

Hi,

Using latest version on XP. I have a 237 KB text file that is one line. It is a very big messy page of web page source. If I wrap it to the window with TextPad and do select all only about 1/5 of the file content is selected/highlighted by the selection. If I hit the unwrap button and the file ...

That's good but my situation is I have very long text string. Say you're extracting data from a web page - the result can be a very long string. Many editors "break" with such a big string, but no problem with Textpad and it will wrap it to the window fast. But the bookmarking you mentioned only ...

Hi,

Is there a feature to highlight "abc" for example and have Textpad highlight all occurrences of "abc" throughout a document? Would be most useful in my case but don't see the option.

Thanks

Hi,

How to I run Perl from Textpad? I tried tools and using C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe as the command w/the defaults but it'snot working. Googled it but what I saw and tried did not work. I would also like a syntax check through Textpad. Do anyone know exactly how?

Thanks

Note: I'm doing GUI things ...

Thanks it worked.

I'm sorry to ask, I searched the forum but can't find what i think is a gemeric think to do. I want to have column mode with textpad. I know it has something to do with block select mode but I can't figure it out.

Also block select mode say ctrl+Q,ctrl+B I'm not sure what they do since there are ...

Could this be a bug?

This does not exceed 63 chars - the limit for the keyword. Any ideas appreciated.

Hi,

I am using php5.syn - the most recent in the downloads. There's a function called: imagecreatefromstring. I see it in the keywords in the syn file. But it does not highlight - should be a dark blue but it's the default black. Note: If I shorten it to: imagecreate then it highlights - this is ...

Changing color helps slightly but not enough. The symbols are too small. This is a problem for me. Tabs and spaces are content, and I must clearly see content. No editor is perfect. IMO this is Textpad's only weakness.
