I think it would be good to bring over the Textpal features to consolidate
on one editor.

Hi Ron, At present, TextPal is, indeed, better for programming because of
several coding related features not included in EdSharp.  Since TextPal
generally works well for programming (I used it to develop EdSharp), I am
more likely to distinguish EdSharp with other features, e.g., HTML edting
ones.  I am seeking input on what editor features people find beneficial in
writing HTML and what they would find valuable if available in a more
accessible manner.

For general text editing, user feedback so far is favoring EdSharp because
of better performance and reliability.  If TextPal already works well for
someone, there is no particular reason to change -- I will probably use both
for the foreseeable future and will continue to fix problems discovered in
TextPal and make small enhancements.  If moving to Windows Vista, however,
or otherwise interested in something more responsive than TextPal, I think
EdSharp is worth trying.  I do not have Vista myself yet, but some users
have reported significant problems with TextPal there.  EdSharp is designed
to be more compatible with Vista, and in fact, I hope to eventually make it
work on Windows Mobile 6 as well.
