pspad: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The slowdown depends of number of pairs for highlighter. If PSpad draws editor area, it must for each word go through the list of pair words, if it find one, it must search for pair words in visible area. All is in real time. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm afraid that _visible area_ is not in fact taken into account. Naturally, if PSPad looks for the _missing_ tags as well (to highlight them red), it must search in the whole document. In my experience if I have some HTML file with humongous DIV element, moving cursor across the div letters in the opening tag consumes quite a lot CPU and makes this process sluggish. These are moments I'd like to disable this feature completely. On-demand "Edit > Select TAG" (actually used as "Jump to the closing tag") fits my needs alone, although some "jump to matching tag" even from the closing one would be highly appreciated. (Isn't there anything like that already?) (BTW, why is this thread titled "… matching brackets" when it is about "matching tags" all the time?) -- <http://forum.pspad.com/read.php?2,50927,55385> PSPad freeware editor http://www.pspad.com
