TextPad 5.4: Go To Byte Feature Broken

Post by jeffhare »

The "Go To" feature seems to work incorrectly when using the 'Byte' option.
It forgets to count newline characters when skipping to a specific byte.

Steps to Reproduce:
==============
1) Load a text file, hit properties and see how many bytes are in the document (bottom pane).

2) Hit ^G, choose "byte" and enter the number of bytes in the document.
This will not take you to the end of the file if the file contains multiple lines.

3) Add the number of lines in the file to the number of bytes in the file and try step 2 again, and now you get the end of the file.

Any chance of getting a fix for this? :lol:
