Notepad++ Heads up! For a long time I have used the free "EditPad Lite" as my text editor of choice. I'm very hapy with it. It has excellent Search and Replace features including block (multi-line) search and replace, and a hoist of other nice features. One thing it does not have though is level folding. Level folding (rolling up the text between braces) is a very nice feature to have when working on large Poser library files. Last night I found a free text editor that has good level folding and bookmarking "Notepad++", so I thought I would give a heads up. Although "Notepad++" has some great features, it has proved rather unstable (sometimes freezes) on my old 1GHz system under Win98 SE. I'll still be using EditPad Lite for much of my work, but there are times when I find level folding is almost essential, so I'm very happy to have this new tool for those ocasions, even if it is a tad unstable. P.S. To use the level folding on poser files, you should select "C" as the language.
