Go to Configure --> Preferences. Choose "Tools", at the bottom, then "Add" Program. Surf to javadoc.exe (usually C:\jdk1.3\bin\javadoc.exe or something like that), and that's it.

For customizations, click "Apply", then the plus sign to the left of "Tools", then "javadoc". Typically, you would like to check "Capture output", but I think that's default.

Thx! Javadoc works great now. You wouldn't by chance know how to get the debugger (JDB.exe) to work smoothly with textpad, would you?

No, I wouldn't. The command results window doesn't seem to accept interactivity. But if anyone else knows something different, please speak out! Being able to run programs like JDB through TextPad would be really brilliant!

Last year in my intro to computers course, we used the debugger with textpad. I don't know how it was setup, but it works.
