What is EditPad Pro?

EditPad Pro is a Windows text editor for working on plain text, web files, configuration files and source code. Tabbed projects keep related documents together, while file-type settings let you choose syntax highlighting, wrapping, auto-indent and line numbers for the material you edit.

For repetitive changes, regular-expression search and replace can work across a selection, one file or multiple projects. Rectangular selections support column editing, keystroke macros repeat editing sequences, and the file comparison tools highlight differences and support merging. Encoding and line-break options help when exchanging text files with UNIX, Linux or Macintosh systems; those file formats do not imply native application support on those platforms.

The linked English EXE is the publisher’s evaluation download, listed as version 8.6.1. It is not a free licensed edition: the trial prompts you to purchase a personal license for continued use. It omits the spell checker and customizable print headers, and does not include the separate tools for creating syntax-coloring and file-navigation schemes. The screenshot shows an older Windows interface from the source gallery, not a verified view of version 8.6.1.

What it offers

  • Organize multiple text files into projects and switch between them with tabs.
  • Search and replace with regular expressions across selections, files and projects.
  • Use configurable syntax highlighting and per-file-type editing settings.
  • Edit columns with rectangular selections and repeat changes with keystroke macros.
  • Compare and merge files; convert text encodings and Windows, UNIX/Linux or Macintosh line breaks.

Good to know

  • Evaluation edition requires purchasing a personal license for continued use and displays purchase reminders.
  • The trial excludes the spell checker; print headers are fixed purchase reminders rather than customizable headers.
  • The separate syntax-coloring and file-navigation scheme creation applications are not included in the trial.
