    Hi,

    I am looking to set up textpad to highlight lines in a text doc with lines that begin with for example
    Er 20
    or
    Wr 20

    I have looked in preferences and to configure a syntax file but I just cant get my head around it.

    Can anyone help?

    Even suggest another notepad style editor to do the above

    Thanks

    Gar

    Try Notepad++, it's free and does this, when you highlight a text pattern it highlights all of the same pattern throughout document. Also comes with ability to load plugins etc. and there are loads already developed capturing a host of features if required.
