After leaving it dormant for at least a year, I've finally decided to finish what I started and just complete RKPad already literally in a "midnight release." I had already "enhanced" a buggy version of it for programming in Assembly Language, but on another computer I had created one with functioning Find and Replace. Well, enough rambling; I'll just do a sales pitch for

RKPad Text Editor

*Fully customizable to suit any programmer's needs!
*Comes with a few dozen auto-content commands already confugured
*Open or run files in any external editor
*Making plugins is a snap (with optional AutoIt compiler)
*Backwards-compatible to Windows 95

New in 2009:
*Fully functional Find/Replace!
*Easier than ever create auto-content menus.
*Extra options for plugins -- easier than before to access parts of a file's name
*Vista-ready (window resizing bug fixed)

Future plans
*Make textbox into RichTextBox (experiencing bugs in ANSI versions of Windows)
*Make configurable for several languages from a master INI file
*Documentation all in one place

What version autoit are you running? To make it work I had to find TextEdit.au3 and add to the folder and make an include and modernize the code by changing all the _GUICtrlEdit functions... seems to work now in 3.3.0.0.. Here are the two files in question. rkpad.au3 and TextEdit.au3

Ouch! My apologies on the source code (I should have tested them on a version of AutoIt before posting). Apparently I haven't updated the compiler either since late 2007. I didn't think commands would be depreciated that quickly.

When was TextEdit made? It would have been a timesaver back when I created this...

Whoops, I took another look at the code: Apparently you don't need to include textedit.au3 with the program, since all the functions already take care of themselves. RKPad also keeps the name of the current file displayed in the titlebar, which might be difficult to add with that UDF.
