FEATURE REQUEST: Regular Expressions

Posted: Mon Jul 16, 2001 4:57 pm

I do ALOT of text replacement via regular expressions with textpad. I would like a convenient way to save my expressions for reuse. Is there an existing facility that would allow me to do this? If not, is there a way for me to extend textpad to add this capability? If not, what is the best way to make a feature request?

Thanks!
Tony Homer

i have several clip libraries, 1 per purpose, for example:
job
email
format
win me file locations
ms office file locations
boolean search examples

within the format clip lib are several entries,

1234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789
0--------1---------2---------3---------4---------5---------6---------7---------

so when i want to know the character length of a line, can double click the clip entry & it's inserted.
