techpro: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi. I have been looking for an alternative to Quanta Plus on Linux that runs under Windows. I recently installed PSPad and it seems excellent, but I am missing one feature that I had using Quanta Plus which is the ability to add HTML tags from a toolbar.
For example, if I wanted to embolden or italicize text I could select the text with the mouse and click a B or I toolbar button and the matching <strong>...</strong> tags would be placed to surround the selected text. If I wanted to place a numbered list I could click a button and a skeleton <ul><li>...</li></ul> would be inserted. To add a hyperlink I would click an anchor icon and a dialog would pop up to prompt for the URL and other attributes and then insert this into the text. Similar for inserting an image. I can't seem to find this functionality in PSPad. Is there an extension that I should install? Another option that I would like but perhaps have missed is tag completion. If I type <P then PSPad puts the closing bracket for me. But I would really prefer to type <P> and have </P> inserted. Is this possible? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi, the toolbar for tags or other codeclips is nota available, however, you can use Ctrl+spacebar to get a list of codeclips in the given highlighter - the selection is narrowed by typing. There is word completition Ctrl+J too, but it is useful for other usecases. hth, vbr -- <http://forum.pspad.com/read.php?2,54296,54297> PSPad freeware editor http://www.pspad.com
