Thanks. I did so and it made no difference. For some reason, the developers won't address this issue or even respond to it with a logical reason for the flaw in the application.

You're having better luck than I am. I'm running 7.2 on Win 8x64. I checked the registry and the settings were correct. Even though the path should make no difference, I tried a "short," non-space path, and that failed as well. I suspect there's a bug somewhere that ought to be addressed.

Thanks. I haven't exited WildEdit, so I didn't get a prompt. Still, can I do both edits at once, and can I run a TextPad macro on multiple files?

Thanks again for all the help! The \A works to insert <html> at the beginning, and the \' works to insert </html> at the end. However, using the \Z inserts </html> twice at the end. I'm just trying the WildEdit demo, so I'm a newbie. When I edit my document, WildEdit creates a new one with -00 ...

Ah, regex, of course! I can't, however seem to find the token or syntax to insert a string at the beginning of file and at the end of a file.

Better yet, is it possible to run a TextPad macro on all open files? Thanks.

Thanks very much. I'm sorry for being dense, but what do you mean by "RE"?

Thanks very much. However, is there a way to apply the macro to all open files as I can with the standard search & replace? Better yet, can I have TextPad apply the macro to all files of a certain type in a folder, e.g., *.json?

Insert string at beginning and end of file

I'm converting multiple files to HTML. I want to append <html> to the beginning of the files and </html> to the end. Is there a way to do this? Thanks.

Regex not finding hits

I'm trying to test a few regexes, so I started out simply by trying to find some hex strings in an open file, in hex view. I'm new at TextPad, so perhaps I'm proceeding incorrectly. My file has the following hex string: 00 00 00 00 00 EA 65 12 45 00 The regex \x12\x45\x00 finds 0x 124500 The regex ...
