Ok, this is something that has troubled me on and off for a while now. I am looking for a real good text editor preferably one a integrated diff (file compare) utility. And it would be great if the diff had a merge functionality. I have been using UltraEdit for 6 or so years now. Occasionally the editor will crash. I could not make a nice reproduceable situation of when it crashes. The latest version of UE is no different. I took another look at Komodo Edit, but versin 5 does not seem to be any more accessible with JAWS. Editor: I use the editor for writing sql, php, python, csv files, viewing logs, etc. I like code folding and function lists to quickly move around in longer files. So I need sort of an Accessible Power Text Editor. I would not mind paying for it, but it shouldn't crash on me like UE doing on both of my boxes. I'll be doing file comparisons and merging of changes over the next few weeks. Other than that, I probably compare files once a month. I am going to try out WinMerge, but Tuesday SourceForge would not allow any downloads of that package (500 error), so I'll try Wednesday. If that package is accessible, ten I the file compare be satisfied Sina had a couple ideas, but he also suggested to hit the list up with the question. -Rodney __________ View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind
