Hi!

I use Textpad and I like it very much. Here you have the tools I use (you
can combine this into your registry, be carefull not to overwrite your
settings), if you want I can capture the configuration windows. The tools
are:

0 : HT-PIC
1 : MPASM
2 : Borland Turbo  C (version 2.0, yes! :-)
3 : CC5X
4 : GCC
5 : --------- (Separator)
6 : PIC Bootloader
7 : VBTerm (simple serial terminal)

It is pretty simple to add a new tool, the difficult is to setup the regex
for matching the errors which cause textpad to jump to the source line (by
double-clicking) which has it.

Cheers,
Diego.
