Update 2011-03-06
After quite a few weeks, lots of work, and almost a complete rewrite, TxPad now uses Qt widget set.
I have been mainly focused on getting TxPad to be as touch friendly as possible while trying make use of whatever the N900 has to offer.
One of the new features is making use of the proximity sensor. For example kinetic scrolling mode is now enabled only while proximity sensor is closed. It also makes few toolbars visible only when closed in order to gain space for the code editor.


I added another new feature which will be usefull when dealing with large files are the bookmarks.


There are few more things like use of the zoom keys for changing tabs or zooming, RegEx support for the search (& replace) functions, and other things you will see for yourself.


Some of the current features are :
  • Code syntax highlighing
  • Code folding
  • Smart tabs
  • Smart selecting
  • Ability to open multiple files
  • Ability to send text to paste bin (whole file or just the selected text)
  • Standard Search/Search & Replace functions with RegEx
  • Bookmarks
  • Macros
  • Scripts (run shell scripts from TxPad)
  • Extra button bar with frequently used characters (Now customizable)
  • Export to HTML (whole file or just the selected text)
  • Custom color settings
  • Jump to line
  • Open Recent feature
  • Open & Save from/to FTP

About highlighting, currently supported syntaxes are :
Delphi, FPC, C, Java, Perl, HTML, XML, Python, lfm, sh, CSS, PHP, TeX, SQL, VB, Ini, Bat and JavaScript so far...

TxPad is written in FPC and using Lazarus IDE (Using Qt widgetset).
In order to compile the sources, you need to follow this tutorial or use the install scripts from the source tar...

You can find TxPad in Extras-Devel.

Any suggestions for new features are welcome...

TRX.

Wow! Seems like a better alternative to leafpad. And on-device compiling?? Waiting for that feature!
And oh... What about search/replace feature? RegEx support? and syntax highlighting? On what specific language is that?

Hmm seems like most of the needed languages are there already. Perhaps you can lowly prioritize the syntax highlighting support

BTW one last question... How's the text encodings? Does it support multiple text encodings? Can it handle complex ones? Will download it later after going home.
