Nice!
I do not know if this is a bug that has been in previous versions.
The line number and the file has different heights. That is if you have a file with more than eg 50 lines, the line number and the selected line is not aligned.

I have win xp sp1 and win32pad 1.5.0.
I have these settings (I started from an clean install)
[Config]
Font=Verdana
dwEffects=0
CharSet=0
FontSize=160
BackColor=16777215
FontColor=0
[View]

Greetings...

Win32Pad v1.5.0 is a neat little editor. I've been using Win32Pad for a while now and I really like it.

In this lastest release, the Outdent in the edit menu and the right-click menu doesn't appear to work, though the keyboard command Shift-Tab does work. I'm using Win 98SE.

Also, I think an additional button in the toolbar to toggle the OnTop status of Win32Pad would make switching back and forth quicker and it would indicate which mode you are in.

Thanks for making Win32Pad available...

It might be your version of the riched20.dll can you check you windows\system32 directory and pull up the Properties of the file in the version tab.

I had somewhate similar mysterious issues with another feature.

The file riched20.dll has the Version 3.0.

With this config:

[Config]
Font=Fixedsys
dwEffects=0
CharSet=0
FontSize=220
BackColor=16744448
FontColor=16777215

It is hard to locate the cursor. I know you should be able to change the cursor color, you just have to find how. WORD has an option for a blue background and white text and the cursor is white. I don't like the blue they use though..

I'm challenging you because once you'll find how, you'll learn more around this and never forget later.

I've noticed that, when "word wrap" mode is on, the total number of lines shows up as "0" -- For example, when I first open a text document with word wrap on, the bottom right of the window shows "Col:1 Ln: 1/0". I realize that calculating the total number of lines in word wrap mode is tricky, so for now perhaps simply omit displaying the total number of lines when in word wrap mode?

Also, I have a suggestion. When the "Full Path in Title" option is checked, the full path is also shown in the taskbar button, making it hard to quickly identify individual files if there are several documents open from the same directory. Would it be possible to show the full path only the title bar, and have the taskbar button show just the file name without the path?

Thanks for such a wonderful text editor!

Can I ask how "paste" is programmed in Win32Pad?

Win32Pad is the only editor I know that can successfully paste a clipboard written by Word 2000 under Win95, without corrupting certain characters (e.g. without left and right quotes becoming ASCII quotes).

I have tried programming "paste" myself (in Delphi), by calling "GetClipBoardData (CF_TEXT)", but these characters are still corrupted.

I'd be very interested to know how you do it!

Oops - when I described how Win32Pad correctly pastes a clipboard written by Word 2000 under Win 95, I was using v1.3.2. Now I just upgraded to v1.5.0, and I find it is different - it changes left and right quotes into ASCII quotes, like the other editors do. So I've gone back to v1.3.2.

Makes the question even more interesting, though!

Just to confirm that the change in behaviour re "paste" under Win95 occurred between v1.4.1 and v1.4.2, when the changelog states "Fixed a Paste problem on Win98."

Hi

I made Win32pad 1.5.0 only 22Kb. You can use UPX utility on the official release. http://upx.sourceforge.net

Post by: laserlight on January 21, 2004, 09:25:38 am

UPX and other executable packers tend to be more useful for larger executables though.

If one really wanted to then it should be applied first to win32pad.exe, then to the installer, though I think the installer should have its own compression methods.

Post by: on January 21, 2004, 06:01:07 pm

I'm sure this isn't a bug you normally expect to deal with. I have 5728321 lines in a file. I tried to copy all those lines to the clipboard and paste them again to the bottom of the document. I do a select all, and tried copying with CTRL+C and the icon at the top. When I try to paste with either CTRL+V or hit the paste icon, it pretends like it's going to paste all the lines to the screen, but doesn't.

Otherwise, win32pad is great as always.

I am now using win32pad exclusively for program development. Until now, I was doing all my editing using Norton Editor in a DOS box.

There is one feature of the Norton editor I am really missing, it is the ability to match bracket, and braces (the set of (), <>, {}, []), for example, set the cursor on one of these, then click match, and the cursor move to the matching item.

In programming, it is very usefull to find where the matching element has gone after significant editing.

Many thanks for this nice program.

Hello,

Just a small annoyance I get from WinPad v1.5. When opening text files, it seems for a very brief moment (and very fast) Winpad scrolls down to the end of the document and then goes back on top again. Very minor issue but it somehow annoys me.

Other than that, it's a great tool I've been using it for years!

Thanks!

Hello again! Another minor thing I've noticed, when I copy text from Win32Pad and paste it into WordPad, the text isn't copied as "plain text" -- the particular font and tab settings Win32Pad uses internally seem to be copied over as well.

It would be more consistent with Win32Pad's functionality, I think, for this data to be copied out of Win32Pad as plain text, rather than having all that rich text "baggage" along for the ride.

Hi Genadi,

Would it be possible to enhance the Search & Replace dialog window, so that it would become possible to enter shortcuts for searching/replacing non-printble characters like the < tab >?
(or < even better > use regular expressions :;):

)

A simple search and replace string could look like this:

search: \t {for intance for tab}
replace: \n {for instance for newline character}

For expert search & replace it would be nice to be able to use regex.

What do you think?

I used to use Win32Pad ver 1.0.13 and have now upgraded to 1.5.0 . There is something that really needs attention and that is the default .txt extension when saving or saving-as files. Would it be possible to allow for the user to choose the default extension to be *.* (all files) if that is what is desires and make this the default instead of the .txt extension.

The reason for this is that I very seldom create and edit .txt files. Most of the files I work with are .cgi and .htm files. The older version defaulted to *.* extension and I was able to save files (and save-as) files without having to change the drop down list extension value.

Hi,

When I right-click over an url, the functions in the menu don't work as I would expect them to: "Lauch" opens an explorer window in the win32pad-directory (doubleclicking on the url works fine and opens the url in the browser); "select" and "copy" do nothing at all.
IIRC it worked as expected in an earlier version (don't know which one).

hi,

Thanks for win32pad 1.5.0. But I have trouble with brandnew diskettes when using your program on it, editing texts. Texts edited with win32pad 1.5.0 became unreachable (I cannot open them anymore) and I get a message that " diskette is not formatted do you want to format"? Diskettes are brandnew and from MMORE and Nashua two highly repected brands in the industry. Perhaps it is a fault within win32pad 1.5.0 Please take a look!
I tried to correct the problem using norton utilities 2002 and norton disk doctor. Disk doctor said the FAT was corrupted. I never had this problem before only on diskettes win32pad 1.5.0 was installed upon! Disk doctor corrected the problem somewhat and I was able to open and save to other diskettes my text messages.
Have a look into the matter please. Please answer!

Gena01

Here is more info for this situation. There are several cases where this is an issue.

1) When I am opening a file, the default filter is *.txt and I have to switch it to *.* to look at the files in a folder for the simple reason that most of my files are not .txt files.

2) When I am saving a file using "Save As", if I do not switch the filter from .txt to *.*, it will add the .txt extension to my existing filename. For example, if I have a file named script.cgi and I want to save a copy of it in another folder, if I don't switch the filter to *.* then it will save the file as script.cgi.txt . Having made this mistake a few times, each time I have to go to Windows Explorer and rename the file back by removing the .txt extension. Needless to say, this is a bit of a problem.

3) The final case is if I am saving a new file for the first time, again I have to remember to switch the filter to *.* or else whatever I type in filename text box will have the additional .txt extension added to it when the file is saved.

Thanks for looking into this for me.

Mmm.. I tried researching this a bit. Still a bit unsure as to why what you are experiencing is happening. I am going to try it on some of the floppies i got here.

In order for me to get a better idea of the problem you experiencing:
- What Operating System are you using?
- Does it write complete file onto disk?
- How big are the files that you are writing?
- Is the disk still readable on the same system just after write?

Anything else that might be helpful with reproducing and analyzing this issue.

I'd like to add my thanks for Win32Pad, which is fantastic: small, fast, and effective!

I use the "go to line #" command frequently to navigate documents with voice-recognition. In the 1.5.0 release, entering a number greater than the line count of the document results in an error message dialogue. If possible, it would be more useful to go to the last line of the file without a dialog box if the line number entered in the dialog is greater than the number of lines in the document.

1. I might add that in in one of the next updates.

2 and 3. I actually spent some time looking into this. It appears that CommonDialog control (the windows open/save as) has a way to detect extensions. The way it works is that it checks to see if an extension is in the registry (has programs associated with an extension) and if it does then it will NOT add "txt" extension. One way to "fix" it is to create an association for "cgi" extension. It should fix your problem.

First off, thanks for making such a wonderful product. I'm pretty big on minimalism (I despise bloat) and I use win32pad for every project I ever have to do, in any language (aside from, say, VB or VC++ projects).

In any event, I was wondering how hard it would be to add a plugin capability so that other features could be added as necessary. I know I, personally, would love to have syntax checking for Cold Fusion, PHP, ASP, HTML and C. Now, I understand that many people won't need this (or want this), which is why I suggested adding plugin functionality - this way, with a well defined specification, other authors could write plugins to do these tasks.

I don't know the state of the design and code for the win32pad project, so this may not even be possible without a complete rewrite (and I wouldn't expect anyone to do a complete rewrite for this functionality), but if it is possible, would this be something you would take an interest in implementing in future versions?

I downloaded your program as I was looking for some peculiar functions in an editor (which I still cannot find). It is a great program, but not what I'm after.

I am having problems removing the program. I associated Win32pad with text files. Whewn it is deleted, if I view source in IE, it says can't find Win32pad blah blah.

Any ideas? Thanks

There are several things you can do to fix this:

1. Win32Pad 1.5.3 will address this small issue.
2. Install win32pad 1.5.2 select "Edit with Win32pad" and then uninstall it should cleanup.
3. Edit the registry manually. Find and delete the following key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\View Source Editor

(delete the whole View Source Editor folder)

P.S. What are some of the features that are missing for you?

I am at a Bible college here in Australia.

I search a lot of writings that are in large text files. I am looking for something that will search biggish text files but I would like to be able to use a "near" operation. It allows me to find particular passages, with common words, that do not appear in a regular phrase. For example, WordA within say ten words of WordB. I hope that makes sense.
