I was working with another editor because I was on a Mac. There is an option in BBEdit where when the file is recognized as source code, and you close a block, it highlights the other end of the program block. That way you know what you are closing. I switched over to TextPad because I am more comfortable, and like a lot of the features available. I tried to find a similar feature and couldn't... Does a feature like that exist????

Also loading and saving files to FTP was nice as well....

To Find the First Closing Bracket:<br>
1. Place the cursor anywhere in the text. <br>
2. From the Search menu, choose the Match Bracket command. If there is one of the characters >}]), before the end of file, it will be selected.

To Select Text Between Brackets:<br>
1. Place the cursor to the left of the bracket to be matched. <br>
2. Type Ctrl+Shift+M. If there is a matching bracket, all intervening text will be selected. When matching forwards, both brackets are selected as well. When matching backwards, neither bracket is selected.

The shorter answer is, hit Ctrl-M.

Mark, I agree, but that would not have looked so clever without the first explanation being there. A bit of thouroughness goes a long way.
