What about if i wanted to insert a $ into the first column of the first line? I have nothing for block mode to select and search/replace.

Sorry I haven't used regex in the past much..

In this case, you can "Increase indent". This will insert a group of spaces before each marked line, then you ...

@ boldan , but it must have been the case for xus as block mode is the pretty much the same in all editors. In your example this would not work. (Btw, the Code tags are good to post this kind of data) Chances are you must therefore use a find/replace with or without a regex.

I wonder how it ...

I have been using Replace with Regular expressions a lot.
Still, I seldom manage to write my Find what and Replace With expressions correctly at the first attempt.

What I want is a Undo button in the Replace dialogue!

Is there any better way to do this?

I'd open a new file and save there the ...

Configure, Word Wrap Off, Block Select Mode on.
Select area to insert.
Edit, Fill Block......

I don't get it. A CSV file is not column aligned. How can you use the columnar block? Here is an example:

-1282,M,06, ,20050218,/
====,====,====,====,====,/
-288,M,01, ,20050218,/
707,M,01, ,20050218 ...

"Change case" does work for a marked block.

I save 16 "recent files". They are all listed under "File". The list is using only one digit for shortcut for all 16: 1, 2, ... 8, 9, 0, after 0 comes 1 again. I suggest using letters instead of numbers. Or use numbers until 0 and then continue with letters.

And Vote I did! Definitely we need to export the settings. And it wouldn't harm to import them too

Oops I can't run regedit. I am not authorised. I was hopping to have the definitions in a file.

I would have liked to vote for your answer... but it only made me more bitter You woldn't want to know about this.

I had the surprise that my user ID on LAN and on my PC was refreshed, and I lost all the saved defaults. The most, I miss my colours for TextPad. Where are they saved, because I want to make a back-up?

I got a nice :-) message:

Line 2 is 165644187 bytes long
Split into 33554429 bytes lines?

I would like to have these long numbers formatted with thousand separarators, so that it will make it easier to read. Something like this:

Line 2 is 165,644,187 bytes long
Split into 33,554,429 byte lines ...

Many years ago I was using for binary editing (includding inserting, searching, changhing and deleting characters) an extension of the Ravitz Editor (Raved). Try to find it.

WOW.

Been away from computer as my daughter had my first grandchild and had other things to do. :D :D

Thanks,

I have 10 grandchildren... so far :-) When I got my first, somebody asked me: "What do you do to have a grandchild?" I answered: "You work 5 minutes, then wait for 20 years ...

All of the files are being written locally and the only possibility that I can think of is that they are html files where one might be open in a local browser, so one suspicion would be that the write is being interrupted on that one file and all that follow don't get updated...


I do multiple ...

When I start text pad via the double click of a file I'm getting the following two popup's

Look under File Manager - View - Options - File Types
Find the extension of the file you are double clicking, let's say it's .txt
Click on Edit
Click on Open
Click on the new Edit

I'm looking for a way to concatenate all open documents into one new document.

thanks

I realize that this won't do it in Textpad, but you can concatenate several files just by using the COPY command in a DOS window. It even accepts wildcards.

Copies one or more files to another location.
