Yes! This issue is now fixed. Thank you for the quick turn around.

OK, thank you.

Is there a way (i.e., a command line option) to force an older version of TextPad to install over a newer version without having to uninstall first?

With the new versions (9.4.0 & 8.18.0), the "Reload last workspace option" is broken.

I just noticed something odd version 9.3.1 today. I cannot use ctrl-a to select all files in the open file dialog. I always could in older versions. I just checked 8.17.1 and it still works fine. I can select multiple files using other methods, though. Is this a bug or was this behavior changed in ...

Thanks for the quick fixes!

Got it. Thank you!

That worked. Thank you! I've never bothered to set the scope before because "InSelection" seemed to take care of it. I will from now on.

Thank you for the confirmation, Ben!

I have several macros set up to comment-out the selected lines in various languages (i.e., C++, Ada, bash, etc.). They'd worked for years, but with the latest versions of TextPad, they ignore the selection and affect the whole document. Doing it manually through the replace dialog box still works ...

Huzzah! Thank you so much for fixing this.

I don't know if this should go here or in "Enhancement Suggestions." Pardon me, if I've guessed wrong.

TextPad 8 remembers the size and position of the find/replace windows, but 9 does not. Could you please fix that?

Thanks,

I've been playing around with this and I've noticed a couple of things:

1. It only fails where there is more than one match per line (which seems why it doesn't fail with "Match case" checked).
2. I can make it fail if the file contains nothing more than "HANDBRAKE copy"

Thanks. I send the file you requested.

I get this same behavior on more than one machine.

As I test, I tried an older version of TextPad (8.8.1). This does not exhibit the behavior.

Thanks for the support. I'd be happy to run any tests you'd like me to.

I did, and also UTF-16. It didn't help.

Thanks.
