Line numbering

Post by Steve Hodgson »

Is there a sneaky way to turn on line numbering for specific types of files, ideally syntax classes.

I would ideally like to be able to turn on line numbering for one type of file by default while output files and general text files fo not show them.

Cheers,

Steve

A great sneaky way would be to specify the name of a macro to be executed upon opening any document of a given class. However, TextPad currently does not have this ability. For the entire history of this forum Helios has maintained a complete silence on the subject of enhancements pertaining to macros. So don't expect any, and enjoy the tool as it is.

Of course, I welcome being corrected -- as always!

I would love to see the macros become VBA-enabled. No large object model for the application, simply configuration and a collection of documents.

I agree, macro improvement will never see an upgrade (but it's the weakest link in TextPad).
