New to TextPad. Have discovered the means of colorization of source code, and have managed to make my own. Wow!

But, there's 2 things somewhat builtin to Xemacs under Unix
that I love. Yeah I could run Xemacs for windows, but TextPad
is cool too.

1: When the insertion cursor is placed on one of a blocking
character pair, the code in between would be highlighted.

2: There was a Toolbar entry under which you could select
"functions" and all the names of the functions within
the source code would be listed & then selecting one
would drive the editor to the beginning of the function
or procedure.

Can either, or hopefully both, of these tasks be incorporated
into TextPad??

Please, please, please implement the second request!!!!! I know a lot of developers that would be overjoyed if you did.

see http://www.textpad.com/support/tips.html
and check out "How to configure Ctags as a tool". This should help.

Not exactly what you have asked for, but with a little customization you can get a list of functions:
ctags -x -R $File | grep "function"

this generates a list of functions for the current file. change "function" to "method" for Java. You can also list the classes by changing to "class". "macro" will give you all the #defines in your file.

cheers,
David.
