Have a proposal to optionally put visible block marks in ruler to identify a character block from position A to position B and properties in PSPAD extension scripting API (rulerBlockStart/rulerBlockEnd or like that) for further processing in extension script. See picture under link how it would look.
[url]https://drive.google.com/file/d/11HUzH4CsrbnEoOeBStCnMSx98d9-6WUR/view[/url ] It seems not possible at today. Look like I should contact PSPad developer somehow and put a note about this. Or there is another way? Main idea behind this feature is easier text block selection for further processing. Particularly I wish to have a possibility to easy and fast byte block selection from Hex dump copied from any source (like from web page, byte part is always the same) without scrolling N pages down for further conversion into a binary file. Real issue that made this idea was particular software which generate unit text output as hex dump in 4-byte Unicode characters and I wish to convert them to regular text with less hassle as possible. Thanks again about great text file editor for Windows. Pity that it doesn't have native Linux version. -- <https://forum.pspad.com/read.php?2,71396,71396> PSPad freeware editor https://www.pspad.com
