Yes, I realize that. But when the active document is no longer 'active' it should not count as an active document (so textpad should switch to its own directory or something).

right-click in file selection window should NOT select

Often I want to close a document that may have changed in the mean time. It costs an extra step because on right-click on that file I am asked whether to reload the document (that I am trying to close), I say yes or no, then I have to again select 'close'. (I don't want to have documents that have c...

Yes, this would be most useful. I currently have to change the syntax definition file (to something arbitrary) and apply it, then change it back to the correct one and apply again. Very inconvenient and very easy to remedy.

I would add the 'no extension' case :!: There are now C++ header files without extension (courtesy of STL) that I cannot view with syntax coloring. Similarly, often UNIX text files have no extensions (e.g. README, makefile). Suggestion: For any given open document, being able to say "treat as&q...

It would be great to be able to "transparently" replace the diff engine with an outside program. (I.e. all would behave the same, but the results would either be displayed in the other application - my preference - or downloaded back from it into the results window) This would require bein...
