"Scratch Pad"

When I click on "find pages with email addresses.fll" in the "html" folder, it brings back the tab "Scratch Pad".

Scratch Pad stays with the latest version of TextPipe Pro!

How can I activate this Tab?

It is useful for storing miscellaneous pieces of text.

The Scratch Pad was killed off because it made the interface too complicated for beginner users.

To get it back, take a filter such as "html\find pages with email addresses.fll", then save this as your normal.fll.

Why not set it as an option in the "Preference" Window? That will be more convenient.

Sure, we'll consider it for the next release.

Or just kill it totally to reduce the size of TextPipe Pro.

(It is still embedded implicitly in the current version.)

Because there are already shortcuts to NotePad and Clipboard Viewer in the Tools menu.

It's really not going to change the size that much. We've kept it there to allow filters from old versions to still be recovered.

So I prefer my previous idea.
