I get the same results as you. And if I modify the code to: <?php echo 'グリ'; echo 'Tus labios me dirán'; then the output is the correct one. The output is - in any case - UTF-8. á is UTF-8 for á (you see that yourself when you compare the binary view of your UTF-8 saved file ...

TextPad does not offer a command prompt. Do you mean the Run command? By "command prompt" I mean the only one existing in the system, not Textpad . This resembles to CMD.EXE on nowadays Windows version. In Textpad 's "Run" dialog or "Tools > Add" menu this is the (wron...

And how should anyone have known you wanted to use the command prompt? Even now it's not sure if you need it, or if you're executing a program on its own. Those are all different things.

+1 But I can imagine we don't have that as Textpad works differently in both modes, and switching back and forth would always need to re-open/scan the files. However, you can halfway workaround this by just opening the same file twice: once in Text mode, once in Binary mode. And since CTRL+G support...

Search and replace that with regular expressions. Find what: \t Replace with: </td><td> Find what: ^(.+)\n Replace with: <tr><td>\1</td></tr> Now you just need some definition on where the table starts (suggestion: empty line) and where it ends (last line shouldn't have a carri age return ).

Are you guys serious? Window menus are part of Windows , not the programs. Even if Textpad would "solve" it for you, you'd still have the very same problem with i.e. Notepad , Notepad++ , Calc , Explorer ... (this is ridiculous, just add any software that comes to your mind). You'd have to...

It could show the existing colours unchanged. When one of your syntax text colors is red and your selection text color is maroon you'll see what I mean by color collision. A more drastic example would be a black selection background encountering black syntax highlighting text. I see no colour colli...

Run any tools that output unicode. So far I can't reproduce it: using CMD (what most people still call "DOS") with UTF-16 works fine: http://abload.de/img/20161103tptooloutputc3xsj5.png using PHP with UTF-8 works fine: http://abload.de/img/20161103tptooloutputpqcs6j.png That's why I ask f...

I never expect a selection to show syntax highlighting, as the selection itself is already using its own colors. Textpad could only safely achieve this by not using specific highlighting colours, but instead always showing the negative colors (of both text and background), so highlighting colors wou...

What do I have to do to even reconstruct your situation? How can I get any tool output at all? Maybe the source is the problem, not the output. Maybe the font being used is not capable to show the correct characters.

I can't see any difference in the tab heads - I even enlarged both pictures, and still don't see any difference ... They're not supposed to show a difference. Both are wrong.

My bad: you really can't search on selection. After all those years I always thought it was there as option, yet I never needed it. (But it wouldn't be senseless either.) I can't even start to think about treating text as columns: the search goes thru text in a stream. Seeking column-wise (we still ...

You could use block mode (Configure > Block Select Mode), then select your "column" and search on selection only. (Edit: no, you can't)

After all, text files never have columns - thus don't expect a text editor to know your definition of where a column ends and the next begins.
