I'm running TextPad 8.1.2 (32-bit Edition) on an older 32-bit Win7 PC Click TextPad's Help menu, Update License, then click the Help Button The Help File displays the section "Register TextPad Dialog Box" Note that you cannot input your TextPad 3.x license using this dialog box. Please see...

Try adding cmd /k to the beginning of your command. This tells the "DOS" console to carry out the specified command but remain open. In fact, you can click Start, Run and type in cmd /k cmd /? to get more information :) Sometimes you even need cmd /k start "" added to the beginni...

You can try KeyHH which provides this ability for most recent help files. Ironically, the documentation about how to install and run the program is poor, so here are some tips: 1) The stetup program creates "C:\WINDOWS\KeyHH.exe" and "C:\Program Files\KeyWorks\KeyHH.its" (Setup n...

And let me add: Does anyone have a solution?

Click on "Yes" .... It's a link to http://textpad.com/forum/viewtopic.php? ... nderscores

I've seen this asked but never solved .... Here are possible workarounds: 1) View > Document tabs. Each tab should contain a file name. 2) If you usually work with files from one folder, you can use VSubst to assign a virtual drive letter to that long path. For eamples, "C:\Documents and Setti...

And now I'm stuck on how to manually say every X lines add a page break. Perhaps this would be addressed with AutoIt (search the forums and you should have plenty of hits) :) AutoIt v3 can be obtained from http://www.hiddensoft.com You need to create a tool in TextPad (Configure > Preferences > Too...

You need to use a scripting language such as AutoIt v3 to do that. Here's one way: Command: AutoIt3.exe foo.au3 Parameters: $Sel Initial Folder: $FileDir ;Contents of foo.au3 ; Only run your tool if $SEL or the text the user provides is not null $text = $CmdLine[1] $text = "" Then $text = ...

See this thread for alternative methods.

Follow the "Updated Versions" link in one of my posts. One of these days I'll get around to finalizing and submitting these tools to the TextPad add-ons....

You may want to look at SciTE http://www.scintilla.org/SciTE.html
It's free for Windows and Linux and offers features such as intellisense-like autocomplete and the collapsing/folding of code blocks.

However, it uses a long text config file instead of Preference Dialog windows.

If the files in question contain only one line, could you filter them by file size? Otherwise, If you are comfortable with command-line tools here are some ideas: FINDSTR comes with at least Windows XP and has two switches that might help: /V Prints only lines that do not contain a match. /M Prints ...

Take a look at this thread

Hope that helps

Alt+Up and Alt+Down scroll the page while the cursor stays on the same line number.

Configure > Preferences > Keyboard > Cursor has some things that might help, but I'm thinking a third-party macro is required to do exactly what you want....

Just so you know, you can use the -m command-line parameter to start another instance, regardless of the setting for "Allow multiple instances". I use "allow multiple files on the command line" with single window mode. I have TextPad entires on both my "Context Menu" an...

TextPad stores its settings in the Windows registry, so it's hard to do what you want.

I'd recommend ...., since they store their settings in INI files.

Hey, I just learned on another forum that Ctrl+C works for most text boxes. It captures text that looks like the following: --------------------------- TextPad --------------------------- Save changes to Document1? --------------------------- Yes No Cancel --------------------------- Seems to work w...
