I've got TextPad 4.1.1 (I think) on my laptop, and I set up the preferences so I could compile my c and c++ code from TextPad. I configured the Regular Expression so I could click on the error and it would take me to that particular line in my code. Very nice. Then I officially bought TextPad for my home PC, and decided I ought to have the newest version, so I downloaded 4.5 I tried to set up the preferences so I could compile c++ the EXACT SAME WAY. Now it doesn't capture the error messages that would normally be on the command line. I'm not saying I can't click on an error and get linked to my code, I'm saying that no errors are shown whatsoever. I get the message "tool completed with exit code 1". Why can't I capture the output!?!?
Other information: I've downloaded DJGPP's gnu compiler, so I'm using the command "C:\DJGPP\bin\gxx.exe". This is EXACTLY what I was using on my laptop. Thanks for the help.
4.5 can't capture command line errors?

Re: 4.5 can't capture command line errors?
Have you checked "capture output" on the tool configuration page for your tool?
Re: 4.5 can't capture command line errors?
Yes, the "capture output" box is checked. I went through EVERY option in the configuration box, and they're Identical to what I had on my laptop (I had 4.4.1, by the way, not 4.1.1). Thanks for the thought, though.
Re: 4.5 can't capture command line errors?
A few month age I had the same problem.
The reason was the Norton Anti Virus.
When the virus programm checks all files,
Textpad was not able to capture the message.

Re: 4.5 can't capture command line errors?
Thanks for the responses; I am able to get the output now. Tech-support suggested I check the "suppress output until completed" box, and now it works. Although focus doesn't return to the file I was working on now, even when the tool completes successfully. oh well, it works, and that's what I'm looking for.
