What's new in version 2.5

   after a document is opened. You can even create a plug-in which will
   replace GWD Text Editor commands such as Open, Save, Find, etc.
 - Replace in multiple files.
 - Code Completion. C/C++ programmers: while you typing a C/C++
   function, GWD Text Editor will try to guess what you typing and
   display a tool-tip window with a completed function name/identifier.
   At this time, you can press TAB to complete function. When you type
   a "(", after function name, GWD Text Editor will display function
   parameters. In the next release Code Completion will be also
   available for Java an some other languages.

                        This command is useful for mapping script to a

                        To assign a shortcut key to a script, create new
                        macro:
                           Param1 "script_name script arguments"
                           ExecScript
                        and map this macro to a shortcut key. If script file
                        name contains spaces (e.g. c:\Program Files\Script)
                        quote it in double quatation marks. Example:
                           Param1 "\"c:\\Program files\\my script.c\""
                           ExecScript
                        See Assigning a shortcut key to a GWD C Script help
                        topic for more details.
