    Neville, I heard once about an author of some software (years back on unix) that had a constant 'job' scanning for discussions about his software, so he could 'join-in' the discussion and promote his tool... .. that's you isn't it? ;-) You almost always seem to be the first reply when this type of question is (fairly frequently) asked! ... or is it an automated response? Is that a documented feature of ED for Windows?

    Regards, Ray

      If it's just for simple editing then SciTE[^], otherwise VS2005.


      If you're stuck in a rut: 1) Consult the documentation* 2) Google it 3) Ask a sensible question 4) Try an ancient ritualistic knowledge summoning (:badger::badger::badger:) dance :jig: 5) Phone :bob: * - If the documentation is MSDN > 6.0 then forget it!

      I used to be a big SciTE fan, now I use notepad++ as my simple editor -- which uses the same "core" editor, but many more bells and whistles.

        Which is your favorite editor using for the development purpose? Which is ( all are) the striking feature in your favorite editor? Are font of using any plug-ins for Development Purpose? I'd like to code in Visual Studio IDE and feels the editor is comfortable for me. Some of my friends said that Eclipse is a better than Visual Studio Editor. But still I could not make use of it Please don't reply to market some products. -- modified at 6:46 Tuesday 17th October, 2006

        I primarily use the Visual Studio IDE, however, outside of that, I use TextPad[^] It's very easy to configure Syntax highlighting for various languages (e.g., SQL, JavaScript, Etc...). It's fast and easy to set-up for various compilers (C++, Java, C#, Etc...). My two cents.

          Finally someone voted TextPad, I was afraid I'd have to do it myself :^)

            Does it know about VS2005 projects? What about being able to compile code and launch the debugger? Marc

            No, it's "just" an editor. You can of cause launch the compiler and linker and it will capture the warnings/errors. But most editors do that. It's main attraction (at least to me) is the analyzer part, I'm working on fairly large projects with 1000's of files and SourceInsight will show any symbols (i.e. a struct with all it's members) with no delay.

              Used to be Unicode-blind the last time I looked into it. Did anything change in this regard?

                CodeWright mostly because I invested a lot of time programming it (and Brief before that) to behave properly before DevStudio was programmable. I never saw it worth the effort to make it bend to my will although I have played with it a little.
