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 ...

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.

Where are colours (colors) saved?

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?

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...

Re: how to concatenate all open files into one new document?

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.

That's a good idea to open a copy of the file. Then tile vertically.

Entering Unicode

Having just finished a clip library for Excel functions (hint, hint :-)) I suggest creating a clip library for entering Unicode codes. They will NOT display as Unicode characters, but you'll be able to enter them with textPad and see them with an HTML editor.

Delete duplicates

In sorting, there is the option of "delete duplicate lines". I assumed that, if I specify key lengths and I do check the box of "delete duplicate lines", textpad will delete the lines with duplicate keys, but it doesn't. If I am doing something wrong, how is the right way to do it?

If not, can we ...
