TP Superior to UE

UE is our standard editor the company provides. I'm the lone idiot using TP.

Another programmer was trying to use the Find In Files function in UE, and I presumed behavior was very similar to TP. Wow, what an unwieldy beast. It was a simple search of ASCII text files. The string contained a caret(^) and UE appears to be treating it as an RE search, even though the RE box isn't checked.

I did the search with TP and found what he was looking for without any problems.

Unless I were to move to an IDE, I ain't budging from TP.

We also use UE v15 as the company standard general purpose text editor, but I was able to buy and still use a copy of TP v4.73.

UE has a lot of useful features, particularly in recent versions, but the default menu organization is still an absolute mess.
