I found this editor by chance while watching a webinar. It looks good. I used to
use PFE back in the day (I still have it installed) and I also use VIM but this
had features I wanted. The main one I want is the ability to reformat HTML.
I have set PSPad to be the HTML viewer in IE. As a web developer, I often like
to see the resulting HTML that is produced by the system that I use. It isn't
very tidy at all, in fact it's a massive block of unformatted HTML.
What I want to do is do view source in IE and see the HTML source. I want to
have it either auto-format it so the tags are nicely tabbed properly and laid
out in a readable manner. Something like changing this:
<html><head><title>Page</title></head><body>Text</body></html>
to this:
<html>
<head>
<title>Page</title>
</head>
<body>Text</body>
</html>
I read on the web page it can do this. It doesn't or I'm doing something wrong.
If I choose HTML -> Reformat HTML code the option is greyed out. I've read other
posts that mention something in the Highlighter options which isn't there in the
version I have. I have 4.5.7 (2450) installed. If I highlight the HTML code and
choose HTML -> TiDy -> Choose any option and none of them reformat the way I
want.
Can someone please shed some light on what I'm doing wrong?
