Best Text Editor / false info about textpad - does have hex...

« on: December 07, 2005, 10:05 AM »

it's called "binary" - menu file, open, choose file, file format: binary --> get a hex view of that file
no editing though...

the reason I prefer textpad is because it features "document classes" in preferences, where you can decide which filetype is opened/viewed how. I often view *.nfo files, which needs DOS character set... in ultraedit I would need to enable "oem character set" manually and then this is a global setting (for all opened tabs) - pretty much unusable

ultraedit is more flexible overall though - so if someone knows how to solve my little problem, I could switch...
