Let me be the first to offer you my congrats! Surely you are on the right track with both tools. Windows based only and you've got the attention of some *nix users! AFAIK that breed likes to "combine some simple tools into one great one". Yeah, that sums it up neatly for me. Keep it up!
Is it just me or is TP473 starting up faster, esp. with those little every day web/txt files?
And on to my nagging. I know that most of the users here on the forums are "programming geeks" or something of that sort. So I'd like to have seen more improvements on something else than those blessed spell checkers!

Re: TP473 first impressions
I can't 'judge' WildEdit - I use Ruby for that kind of jobs...
...until we find something new we could wish for

Yes. I second that.s_reynisson wrote:Let me be the first to offer you my congrats!
Well, it seems to be faster here too.s_reynisson wrote:Is it just me or is TP473 starting up faster, esp. with those little every day web/txt files?
You're so right. I'd love to see some improvements at least in the top five of the enhancement suggestions Jeffy so kindly generates:s_reynisson wrote:And on to my nagging.

Hi there,
I was really aspect more improvements for this new release, moreover after so much long time of in activities.
I use for search/replace a nice tool instead of WildEdit. The name is:Search and Replace (http://www.funduc.com/)
I have no idea WHY is so slow to implement a lot of requested features !

Hi,
when it comes to repeatedly manipulating text files (and in many places per file) I recommend a language which is capable of doing that.
Perl, Python and Ruby (in alphabetical order...) are examples of languages that can di that (and a lot more!).
Personally I prefer Ruby for serveral reasons (which I won't discuss here - it's a matter of personal taste, existing knowledge and code...).
So I'd like to see the editor specific improvements to be implemented, rather than features I can get from other products.
An example or two:
I'd rather like to see improvements of the syntax highlighting (italics and bold face, highlighting of strings comments, regular expressions...) than a perfect spell checker.
I'd prefer to see 'code folding' soon, but would even wait for editable macros (and I posted that suggestion )
Cheers
