Don't know how exactly to do it, but it'd be funky to save a workspace of files along with a TWS file. Although it's not quite what you want, you could have bookmarks in the files you want to change, and maybe a README in it as well. The README document could be the first document to open. It'd be e...

Converting PDFs to text

I found this great tool for converting the text in PDFs to plain text: http://pricelessware.org/2003/PL2003TEXT.htm#P110 It's a command-line program. Call it, for example, like this: C:\applications\PDF-TXT1.EXE "C:\whatever\My PDF Document.pdf" C:\temp\from_pdf.txt I have nothing to do wi...

Yes, it does work both ways in Notepad. WordPad, too.

BUG: "All Users" desktop file

Try this: - Close TextPad. - Put a temp.txt file in your "All Users" desktop (C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop). - Minimize all applications, and double click on temp.txt, which is now on the desktop. - TextPad opens the document just fine. - Close temp.txt, but leave TextPad op...

Even if you save the workspace, and then close your documents, doesn't that update the workspace? I think if you want to reopen a workspace later, you gotta either save AS another workspace name (and then you can close your documents in the current one, if any is currently open), OR you can (non-sav...

I do think it would be a good idea to have each document class be able to run a specific macro on, perhaps, file open, save and close. That way I could, say, write my Java code with tab-indentation, but it could automatically be saved as three space indentation. When I open it again, it'll be re-tra...

If CLASSPATH already has an existing value, put a semi-colon ";" between it and the above to-be-added value.

I wrote a small Java program that does what you want, and pretty flexibly, to boot. TextPad does great things, but some things it's not meant to do. Processing multiple files one by one, from the command line, is one of those things. Download it from http://jeffyjeffy.com/TEMP/DelSpcFromLineEnds.zip...

If you compile with the parameter +E, it gives you the entire output on one line, like this: E:/a_sandbox/xbnjava/xbn/template/TemplateFiller.java:10:1:10:1: Error: ; expected instead of this token Then you can use this RE for jumping: ^\([A-Z]:[^:]+\):\([0-9]+\):\([0-9]+\):\([0-9]+\):\([0-9]+\): Wh...
