Ok. I've read the release notes for Textpad 6.0. I'm happy about the portability. But, I'm not impressed.

Honestly, that is a feature I could implement over 1 weekend. Seriously now. How long did it take?? I'm a developer and I write software, and I know that adding that feature would take a max of ...

I had an idea while I was waiting around for the next release of Textpad..

Why not make an OPEN-SOURCE Textpad replacement. Put in all the best features of Textpad, but make it open source. I wonder if there is any interest in a kickstarter fund to get this off the ground. I bet we could have a ...

Thank you for the fix Matthew. It might help me, but I typically have a large number of text files open at the same time, so the decreased screen size hurts even with two monitors stacked vertically.

Goodbye Textpad! It was nice knowing you, but you are a dead project.

I installed Textpad 5.3.1 on a virtual machine running WinXP Pro, and the line number issue does not seem to occur there.

So, it seems to be another Win7 related bug.


The more I use win7, the less I like it.

I noticed today that when I split the textpad file vertically or horizontally using the little gadget above the 'up' scroll arrow or the 'left' scroll arrow on the textpad window, that the line numbers disappear.

If I un-split the window for the text file i'm editing, the line numbers reappear ...

I upgraded recently to Textpad 5.3.1, on a Windows 7 x64 ultimate system (have been using Textpad every day for many years).

Line numbers are disappearing from files that I've been editing.

I haven't found a pattern to when or why this is happening.

My typical workflow is to load about 30 ...
