A syntax file for markdown would be useful.

Thanks.

Using textpad 7.5.1 - using it in Linux with Wine. I don't expect everything to work... 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

When going through a complicated HTML or XML document it's helpful to be able to have highlighting matching tags. For example like what Notepad++ has or Bluefish. The user can toggle the feature on/off as needed. Related: We still don't have automatic bracket matching. We got to press control-m. And ...

Not Block Selection mode but "real" Column Mode. where you can draw a vertical line between characters on multiple lines and press the space bar and you'll have a space on every line. You can't do this with TextPad without being destructive to at least one character per line. For example like the ...

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

If you're in an HTML of XML file it's nice to have matching tags highlighted. A few other editors can do this and often I need this.

Also go to corresponding matching tag, highlight block of content within matching tags.

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 with ...

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 two ...
