You mean you don't see a box like this[^]?

Perhaps a Ctrl+F5 to refresh?

No, he means that the link (titled "The Code Project Survey") in the daily newsletter leads to the results, not the poll.

None of the (admitedly only free) text editors I have tried allow me to set the background (window) colour - can anyone tell me of any they use that do allow this? (Not necessarily free)
Thanks - Fred

Huh? I use Notepad2 and Notepad++, and both of them allow to change the background color.

Thanks all - admitedly it's been a while, but only becasue I gave up years ago when I tried looking... all those I tried then allowed syntax colouring, but not the main window background.
cheers

Vim for windows lets you create custom color themes for background, text and other parts of the UI. Cream puts a nice pretty Windows wrapper on vim and makes it easier to use for the uninitiated.

I just would like to add to this that I recommend PSPad (freeware) for all text editing.
http://www.pspad.com[^]
It has just about everything I need and more. Just look at the info on the link.

Nice link, this does look very nice! I'll try it out next time I'm in Windows. I see a built in colourful hex editor...

Yes.
I can not come to think of anything I miss there. Smile | :)

It also has built-in HTML browser preview for those developing web sites with a text editor.

I have been using PSPad for about 2 years now and I love it.
Lately I have been using it to reformat XML documents in to HUMAN READABLE format.
Also, you can record and edit macros.

I do... it's called "vi" when on a *Nix box, or either Wordpad or MS Word when on Windows machines.

You use Wordpad and MS Word as text editors? God forbid you come near any code with MS Word. It bastardises everything.
