Sorry if I sounded unreasonable. I've actually posted about this a couple of times, and always in the most patient, positive way. (That's the thing about text: It's often hard to "read" people's intentions.)
I think PSPad is fantastic, especially considering it's freeware. Unfortunately, as a technical writer, I must be able to see documentation as it will actually appear, and the punctuation-wrap quirk prevents that. (Okay, I could insert linebreaks each time, but that wouldn't be very practical.) It's the *only* thing preventing me from switching to PSPad, which is why I find it so disappointing. If it weren't so good, otherwise, I wouldn't care. :?) cite: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- _andybridges > _I would guess this is either (a) a simple matter of changing a regex or (b) an impossible error built into the editor component PSPad uses...-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I've never seen this quirk anywhere else. And PSPad has so many excellent, detailed features, Jan seems like the kind of guy who prefers fine-grained control. This makes me doubt he's using a third-party editor. cite: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- _andybridges > _If it's the former it might be nice to fix this. If the latter... meh... this is mainly a coders app so it won't kill anyone if it doesn't word wrap correctly.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It's too bad that text editors are considered "mainly coders's apps". If more "normal" people realized how fantastically useful they were (fast, simple, reliable---well, you know), they would be PSPad's biggest users. -- <http://forum.pspad.com/read.php?2,40703,44520> PSPad freeware editor http://www.pspad.com
