Thanks. The reason (in Oracle) I want to use quoted strings is to facilitate copy-paste between my stored procedures and a straight SQL command prompt is due to the fact that I'm using PL/SQL to dynamically construct SQL statements. It becomes mind-numbing to try to track down the meaning of ''''', ...

Oracle provides a "quoted string" syntax. For example, a string could be 'Some String' or q'{Some String}' This is described in detail at http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e26088/sql_elements003.htm#SQLRF00218 ; the "{}" can be any of a number of pairs. (In fact, it can be any single ch...

Poor Ian. He sits down 12-odd years ago (that'd be pre-1994) and decides "I want to write a decent editor that can allow me to do hex editing as well as edit normal text files." Mainstream desktop (x86) OS at the time: Windows 3.1, OS/2 Warp, Novell Netware, even a good bit of DOS still around. Smar...

The Configuration menu seems to differ from the .ini file; "Automatically convert to DOS format" was not enabled after modifying the .ini. Nor did copy/paste work. I wonder if 11.00 deprecated the .ini file? At any rate: C...

Actually, this doesn't quite work as expected. I have the setting "Unix/Mac file detection/conversion" set to "Automatically convert to DOS format", and also "Save file as input format (UNIX/MAC/DOS)" set to "on". This works great for my copy/paste problems. However, methinks a bug lurks. When I loa...

Yep, that did the trick...it wasn't clear that the "automatically convert to DOS format" applies to Loading the file but not Saving the file. The other option that I have set (since I create a lot of Unix files on my PC) is to default filetype to Unix. I love this tool... Thanks for the help!

I normally work on files in Unix file type. When I copy text (into the clipboard), it doesn't have CR/LF. This works fine if I'm pasting into an UltraEdit file. I have problems, though, when I try to paste into some other Windows applications (like Notepad and CRT). The problem is that my newline ch...
