It's not just programmers who value and are willing to pay for a capable text editor. This is the part which makes me wonder: what makes capable text editor? I am not against paying for good software, I am just asking: what makes NT7 so special to buy it instead of getting some free solution or other payware (let it be UltraEdit, HippoEdit or - heck with that - even Dreamweaver).

Well, yeah, that is a point to be considered  . But it doesn't take into account little things like ... I wonder which of these are worth 40$ to pay (instead of donating to N++)? And more serious question is for Light version: from comparison chart it looks like NoteTab supports HTML5 but without syntax highlighting for HTML… How does it work? Automatic suggestions without colours? Or maybe newest tags are indicated somehow but only if they are not in HTML4 already (nice <article> ugly <div>)?

Check your BIOS boot settings. "PXE" means the laptop thinks it is supposed to boot from LAN (thus the mention of "Cable"). I've already checked all three available booting options from Temporary Boot Menu, checked few possibilities for boot order from BIOS, re-inserted SSD couple of times (Lenovo support forum answer). I still need to check this drive from some LiveCD. Strange thing is: Temporary Boot Menu shows drive name but when I try to boot from it screen goes black and returns to menu. I would say something happened with MBR but dunno if SSD has it. But all of this this is for other topic or… company tech support. It is corporate device and I shouldn't temper with it after all  @ paulhypno1.0.30 has none of mentioned two features.

It was working correctly in any directory for me. Unfortunately, it seems that this bug is not meant to be fixed: second day of having new laptop and I've got blue screen resulting with crashed SSD drive. Now my "brand new ThinkPad" does not start at all and I will need to wait for next few weeks for new drive  Luckily for me: I haven't remove anything from old one yet. Sad thing is: I've spent whole day to get an environment I like.

@ InnuendoI am sorry I will not quote all your thoughts parts (too much hassle) for TC plugins developers base. I will also give my thoughts though: I wrote few plugins for TC and all I can say is that it seemed quite easy for the level of my C++ skills. I've tried to write something for IrfanView and DO in the past but they were too hard. I know there are many great coders out there but for C++ n00b like me - it was darn easy to have my own plugs. They are not bug free or complicated but - hey - they work at least  As for great wave of Easter Devs: for me it is understandable way of living. If you have a choice to pay more for something that works or less for something that almost work (but with your little effort it ends up the same)… you chose second option. This is how whole generation (or two?) was raised. While The West could just buy things, The East had Adam Słodowy to listen to instead. Many people made their tools and I think that's the way for any developing county. Capitalists killed their creativity  As an example: In eighties, one of my friends (as a kid) was in Germany on a trip and he brought back "the best in town" hi-fi set (lot of speakers, amplifiers, etc)… for almost free. How he did it? Hi father found it in dumpster, thrown by some folk who said it is definitely broken. Took for investigation and it appeared that PowerOff button was not working due to bad solding. One tiny spot needed to be fix. That's all. I know that on some levels it is unacceptable to dig into garbage but not for all of us, especially for these who cannot afford it (no matter is it for lack of money or lack of goods).

I have rebuilt this version on my new work laptop (Win7x64): http://fenixproductions.d....com/bbc/bbc_20120706.zipPlease check. BTW Dunno what was wrong with it: Debug and Release versions were OK started from within Visual Studio but w/o - not. I have rebuilt all components (especially SpellCheck which was not recreated for each version), checked different settings combinations and now it seems to work fine. Oh! And I even find out one bug with "Minimize to tray" option: after clicking on balloon tooltip BBC couldn't bring to front itself.

Not that I care about facebook, but everyone seems to be talking about this change of emails and I still don't get what it means.. What does it mean they they changed your email to @facebook? I guess I just don't know how the emails are used.. What are the ramifications of that? How does it affect you? Can someone explain how these emails are used and what it matters what email facebook shows(?) uses(?) Dunno about that but when I had tried to send an email from my company address to MYSELF@facebook.com, after few hours I've got server reply saying something like: Your message was not delivered due to user's account privacy settings.

Good programmer may not need any API/SDK and create DLL which will inject its code on runtime into desired application (i.e. TWinKey) but this is not very secure way and it is prone to errors. In some scenarios may also be malicious. Standard way is to have proper API from software developer: easier to maintain, debug and test. If such documentation does not exist: beg for it  Or use macro tools/languages like AutoHotkey or AutoIt.
