How has any of my posts been off topic. I opened my account yesterday and made three posts on my personal experience with Textpad and used UE as a comparison editor because this forum seems to mention them often. In addition to making my comparisons which are 100% real I also am allowed to discuss ...

I just wrote this post several hours ago, and already a reply to try and discredit what I've said. No I don't work for Helios, I'm just someone who happens to use their product and has helped me become very productive at what I do. I'm grateful and that's it. Whoever made these posts did not have ...

The Helios post deals with word wrapped text files and they just mention it as being slower. I'm sure UE or any other editor would load word wrapped text files slower. This may be worth mentioning because it could be a common question that many people ask but are unable to figure out on their own. I ...

Well I did say I was sharing my personal experience with this editor. I never said it was right. It's not illegal to presume and make logical guesses as to what may be the cause of certain things. My computer isn't some super computer, its just one with a Pentium 4 - XP on it. I have 1.5 gigs ram ...

I personally think these slow Textpad posts come from the same person and is trying to hurt Textpad sales or users. I installed UE on my computer because of reading posts on this message board about how much faster UE was than Textpad but when I used it I noticed it was the exact reverse. The fact ...

I have your basic computer on WinXP and Textpad opened large files (500+mb) instantly. I've tried other editors and was not as lucky. You can even scroll through these large files with Textpad without it stalling. I've used UE on the same files and when I tried to scroll it would pause for quite ...

I've only tried opening files on one computer but I've tried both Textpad and UE and noticed that Textpad opened large files extremely faster than UE. I tried to open a 500+mb .bin file with Textpad and it opened instantly. UE on the other hand took over 12 seconds. They are both set at the same ...
