I'm not using v5 yet, still 4.7.3. I have previously played with the apply all setting, and so far as I could tell the only things that changed were the colours - and then not for all document classes, only some. It did not change anything under the "syntax" heading. I believe individual class ...

You haven't really given us enough information to work with, which may be why you haven't had any responses yet. You should be able to LOOK at a file in TextPad without saving it. If you are doing this (just opening the file and closing it without saving), then TextPad should not be altering the ...

Check your syntax definition file (.syn). I think you'll find a line reading StringEsc = \ If this is the case, then TextPad is correctly honouring the syntax definition.

I'd also like to be able to do this (different languages in my case, but same concept - one language/syntax embedded inside another). I've been hunting the forum, but haven't found an answer yet. Some of the syntax definitions contain keywords for multiple languages (I think there's a combined html ...

I love the idea of being able to run TextPad (or any other application) off a flash drive or external drive. Unfortunately the use of regedit effectively stops me from being able to use this method at work. We have followed the increasing trend towards "locking down" the networked PCs so that the ...

Apologies if I'm stating the obvious, but a couple of things come to mind that might cause this and sometimes the simple things get overlooked. Have you checked all your other document classes to make sure that the asp.syn class is the only one that has *.asp (or whatever the file extension is) in ...
