EditPad Pro is an extended version of EditPad Lite. Everything you can do with Lite, you can do with Pro. Though EditPad Pro has a lot more functionality, it will not get into your way. EditPad Pro is just as easy to use as EditPad Lite.

* Integrated spell checker. You can easily check the spelling of a single file or even all files currently open. The spell checker works together with the syntax coloring. If, for example, you are spell checking a Java source code file, it will only check words in strings and comments as these are likely to contain natural language. Anything else is very unlikely to be natural language and therefore skipped. The dictionaries are separate downloads so they do not waste disk space if you do not intend to use them.
* Syntax coloring for many popular file types. HTML, XML, CSS, Delphi, Java, C#, C++, VB, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, Eiffel, SQL and many more are supported out of the box. User-contributed syntax coloring schemes support a variety of file formats. You create and edit syntax coloring schemes with the JGsoft Syntax Coloring Scheme Editor.
* File navigation for many popular file types. HTML, XML, CSS, Delphi, Java, C#, VB, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby and many more are supported out of the box. User-contributed file navigation schemes support a variety of file formats. You create and edit file navigation schemes with the JGsoft File Navigation Scheme Editor.
* Clip Collections: Store common blocks of text and templates for quick repeated reuse. Temporarily hold multiple chunks of text while editing complex documents. Jot down notes and ideas. Keep important information at your fingertips.
* Hexadecimal editor and byte value editor. EditPad Pro is perfectly suited for editing binary files. You can quickly switch between text and hexadecimal mode.
* Controlling external tools. You can add any external application to EditPad Pro's Tools menu. You can make the tools listed in the menu depend on the type of file currently active (it makes no sense to run a Java compiler on a C++ file). You can have EditPad Pro send the active file as a command line parameter or through standard input. EditPad Pro can catch the standard output and error into their own tabs so you can see what your tool is doing and save the output for later use or edit it. You can also continue to work with EditPad Pro normally while the tool is running in the background, perhaps peeking at the output every now and then.
* More extensive search commands such as highlighting search matches, incremental search and folding lines without search matches.
* Regular expressions: If you are familiar with regular expressions, you will appreciate you can now use their full power from within EditPad Pro. You can apply them to the current selection, the current file or all open files, just like doing a search/replace with ordinary text. You can (of course) use back-references in the replacement text. The regex syntax is compatible with Perl, Java and .NET. If you are not familiar with regular expressions, read the regular expression tutorial.
* You can configure EditPad Pro's toolbar and statusbar to your own taste and habits.
* Change the keyboard shortcuts of all menu items if you are used to different key combinations.
* Edit huge files without breaking a sweat. EditPad Pro will instantly open files up to 2 GB in size, even if your PC has less than 2 GB of RAM. Also, the maximum length of a single line is not limited, which is a problem with many editors claiming to support "unlimited" file sizes.
* File Panel to make it easy to work with hundreds or even thousands of files at the same time.
* Explorer Panel to easily open files and for basic file management directly in EditPad Pro.
* Built-in FTP client for conveniently editing your web site via FTP, and for uploading and downloading files from any FTP server. EditPad Pro can connect to as many FTP servers as you want simultaneously, which makes it very easy to manage multiple web sites.
