I want jeffy's design for Christmas

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).

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'.

"BeyondCompare" is a most impressive application. I could not wait to pay for it ($30) as I used it during evaluation period :D Suggestion for enhancement: When comparing files in PC and UNIX format, if the "contents" are the "same" Textpad indicates "identical". It should however also indicate that ...
