Steve, Thanks for the feedback and suggestions. I will give them a try and see what happens.
Have a wonderful weekend!

I have found that running the 32-bit version on a 64-bit machine works better for me. I have found that responsiveness to scrolling windows is better if you set the font quality to zero in the configuration setup on the Advanced menu pulldown. The Font Quality is a combo that ranges from zero to six, but I don't remember in which branch of the tree it is. You might also be sure that you don't use the inverse cursor. There is an option to use the vertical line in INSERT and OverType mode. Also try turning off syntax highlighting unless you need that. I'm still experimenting to figure out if there are other things that make UltraEdit work better, but Version 22.20 seems to be a big improvement. It now closes correctly. Just to be clear, whatever changes were made that improve things were not present in version 22.10, so this change is part of what appears to be a minor version update. Several people have told me they like Notepad Plus Plus. This is usually written with two plus symbols at the end of "Notepad" but they may not be pronounced unless one's punctuation is set correctly. I have tried NotePad Plus Plus and it is pretty good, but I had a lot of trouble with responsiveness to cursor movement with Window-Eyes. Also, when you DOWN ARROW from the bottom of the screen the screen scrolling seems very slow. The built-in FTP is harder to use for me than UltraEdit's as well.

I used Ultraedit for years, but the last few versions have been getting worse with Windoweyes and there latest 64 bit version I am not liking at all. TextPad has promise, but I am looking for other suggestions. It does not need to be free, I am more than happy to pay for a good editor. Of course, it must work very well with Windoweyes. Thanks and have a wonderful day.
