Apostrophes are double encoded as entities and at least dozens of my posts are affected, but surely others, too: it's Most likely the earlier phpBB version incorrectly saved that. This could be "easily" solved by testing these queries to see the potential outcome, and then actually commit ...

I know what you're talking about: Alt code . There are at least 3 workarounds: Don't type in the TextPad's editor pane, but instead try it in one of his dialog windows, f.e. one of the textboxes in Search . Does it still work there? If yes, just cut it, leave the dialog, and paste it in the editor. ...

Yes, I've seen both code and BBS posts being treated like smelly socks instead of putting a bit of effort into it before: not wondering why there is a "Code" button, and not being consistent on putting a space in front of an operator or not. Apparently my 25+ years are not enough to encoun...

the omission of a newline at the end of a text file is usually an error Only in POSIX and Unix environments. However, TextPad usually lives in... well... none of both. No, I've learnt otherwise.

Yes, that's the point. If the requirement includes CR or LF then your approach would still delete a potential last line of the file that wouldn't have a CR or LF, which would be wrong.

A screenshot of your views on things would help, as for me it looks as expected and it's even in bold:

This board does not allow attachments. Just use one of the countless picture hosters like https://imgbox.com and insert the BBCodes from your uploads into your post. Just like you could have used QUOTE as BBCode already (see the button) for citing your error messages (or text in general, instead of ...

While I understand that there are users who just don't understand certain details: does the installer at least give a choice? Because then I'm forced to install TextPad in a sandbox just to get its binary files, because those surely can be executed in parallel to older versions. And does the install...

However, this only works for searches/files in ASCII, which seems to be enough for you. Windows' FINDSTR executable cannot deal with Unicode and workarounds are not that great either. A better approach would be to just use "Find in files" and then only search on that particular file - that...

I'm sure almost 20 years ago you were already able to use BBCode which could have formatted your code examples much better, especially preserving whitespaces. Why you chose to not do so is beyond my understanding, because it should be trivial enough for anybody dealing with code. Also it's common us...

Tools don't open websites, they start programs (in this case: one of your web browsers). Programs might have implemented a mutex, so only 1 instance of them is running, and starting it multiple times just brings the already running instance to the foreground. Tools don't send strings, they hand over...

I'm sure not once in your lifetime did you ever minimize one of TextPad's child windows. Because that button is (and has been) disabled. From a technological point a developer can only choose between displaying all 3 buttons (and disabling the one he doesn't really want), or only displaying the &quo...

From my experience as both developer and user for 25+ years I can assure you that contact form will annoy away people because they can't provide attachments, such as screenshots. And the communication is hidden between you and the reporter, so nobody else knows what has been reported and what not. H...

For those who don't find it: zooming was implemented with 8.5.0.
