I tried more without any success.

I opened the files with vim, and I saw the characters as ^_ and ^] (if this gives any help).

I tried the older Textpad (4.7) version, but it was the same as with the 5.4.

I was told that it doesn't work at all in Win7. Is it true?

Each of those character pairs represents a single control character:

Code: Select all

^] = Ctrl+] = 0x1D = GS = group separator
^^ = Ctrl+^ = 0x1E = RS = record separator
^_ = Ctrl+_ = 0x1F = US = unit separator
I don't run Windows 7, so I can't help there.

Thank you for trying. I believe it will be a comatibility problem with the Win7.

I'll wait, maybe somebody has found out the solution. :)
