Textpad under Linux

Post by mperkel2 »

This is a bit of an unusual question. I am attempting to run TextPad under Linux using the code Weavers Crossover product. And I'm having some success.

But - when I try to put in the license data - it crashed the application.

Has anyone had any success at running TextPad under Linux?

yes. I found that setup the configuration does not work. What I did was set it up in windows, then copied the regsitry info into the linux "registry."

It's been awhile, and I no longer have Linux on my machine. What I remember doing is this: I would set TextPad up the way I wanted it in Windows, and copied down the Registry entries. I would then boot into Linux and manually enter the entries. Not very efficient, but sinces (in my very humble opinion) Linux has NO decent text editors, I was desperate.
