  • Given your complete inablility to understand simple instructions like do not write in ALL CAPTALS, I very much doubt that this is anything to do with any inadequacy of the Ultraedit documentation - let alone bugs in the product!

    "IVE BEEN TOLD THAT VS CODEWRITE ARE BETTER EDITOR."

    I certainly like it - but I have no idea how it compares to Ultraedit, as I've never tried that.

    "I SEE IF IT WORKS."

    Yes, it does work.
    But you are still going to have to follow the same process of reading both manuals and following their instructions!

  • "IVE BEEN TOLD THAT VS CODEWRITE<sic> ARE BETTER EDITOR."
    I have never used Ultra Edit, but I can wouch for CodeWright not "CODEWRITE" being just great, I would use no other. When I change location, it is my first statement: "If you do not have a CodeWright for me, (I will not bootleg) order it"

  • But you will still have to do one more favor, Erik. You will have to scan through the manual for the page with the list of bugs in CodeWright - it shouldn't take too long until you get a request for it :)

  • I DONT KNOW CODEWRIGHT.

    IT IS VS CODEWRITE THAT I AM GOING TO TRY. APERENTELEY IT IS FREE AND GOOD AND NOT SO BUGGED!

    I LET YOU KNOW MY RESULT WHEN I TRY.

    IF NO GOOD I LOOK AT CODEWRIGHT. BUT IT LOOKS VERY OLD AND EXPENSIFE I THINLK/.

    TNANX FOR YOUR PHELP.

  • the story of CodeWright

    a group of great people made an excellent editor called 'brief' (anyone remember that one?).

    Borland got upset that so many stated that 'brief' was much better than the pitiful Borland editor and the solution was to buy the company that made 'brief' and discontinue 'brief'.

    Some of the people from 'brief' then started to make CodeWright with all that 'brief' could and more.

    Borland got upset that so many stated that CodeWright was much better than the pitiful Borland editor and the solution was to buy the company that made CodeWright and discontinue CodeWright.

    That created such an uproar that Borland started shipping it again, but AFAIK they have now reverted to their old habits and discontinued it again.

    PS: if you want the, in my opinion, best editor ever, Amazon has 3 left - hurry.

  • Erik,

    I've been trying to ignore this quite bizarre thread, but you fired up my interest!

    I remember Brief - Originally written by a company called UnderWare (or rather, at the time I bought a copy, it was them). I always thought the naming was a lovely pun!

    For years, I've been wanting an editor that was as comfortable to use as Brief. I've tried quite a few: amongst them one called Crisp which has pretty good Brief emulation and recently SlickEdit which is not so good.

    For a reason I can't remember, I decided not to follow up on CodeWright.

    Question - Is it really as close to Brief as is suggested? By that, I mean, does it have very good emulation of the original Brief key combinations or does it approximate some?

    David.

  • In conjunction with a job change I lost my beloved brief (I am an ardent non-bootlegger). Thus I started with CodeWright, oh how long ago was that?, using brief emulation for a while (I do not recall any problems). Then I worked with someone that used CodeWright in 'native mode' and, for fun, we did a couple of things with CodeWright and brief we actually found and used a copy of brief.

    Even old dogs can learn new tricks and I switched to CodeWright in 'native mode' because I got convinced it was better (could do all brief could and more).

    Since then I have only fond memories of brief and have forgotten more than I ever knew about it.

  • HI AGAIN,

    I TRY VS CODEWRITE BUT IT HAS A BIG SERIOUS BUG! IT DOES NOT DO CODE FOL:DING.

    ULTRAEDIT IS LESS BUGGED.

    I TRY TO FIND CODEWRIGHT DEMO BUT NOT YET. HOPE IT IS NOT BUGGY.

  • HI POEPLE,

    WHERE CAN I GET A DEMO COPY OF CODEWRIGHT. I DONT WANT TO PAY UNTIL I KNOW IT IS NOT SO BUGGED.

  • BUT NOTEPAD IS BUGED AS WELL. IT HAS NOT CODE FOLDING AND YOU CANNOT CALL A51 FROM INSIDE.

    IS CODEWRIGHT ON TOOCOW?

  • TNAX FOR YOUR HELP EVERONE

    I FOUND EDITOR CALLED TEXTPAD, I GIVE IT A TRY NOW

  • I FOUND EDITOR CALLED TEXTPAD

    I wish you luck. If you read the manual for textpad the same way you read posts here, I suggest you go buy a broom.
