Can I turn off all auto-formatting?

[kunkel321]

Editor2 will, by default, recognize URLs.   I'd like to turn off that feature.  I find that a good way to get rid of all the formatting of a text string is to copy-n-paste it in to NotePad.exe, then copy it back from there.  I'd like to be able to do this with Ed2 instead.... Is this possible?   I didn't see it in the Options.    Thanks  -steve

it could be possible by using dwTEXTMODE registry tweak for editor2 and set it to plain and be saved by both these problems, see

Thanks for the reply Nikos!

This is new territory for me, but I've located a reg key for Ed2 at
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\editor2_UC.exe

From reading that Microsoft article it sounds like I should include the tweak as a command parameter.  I see the following
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\editor2_UC.exe\shell\open\command
points to "C:\Program Files\zabkat\xplorer2\editor2_UC.exe" "%1"

So maybe I should change the %1 to something like
lResult = SendMessage((UINT) dw_SETTEXTMODE);

That doesn't look standard command line code though....
Perhaps this dw string should be used in a newly created key?  But in what level of the directory (shell, open, etc) should I put it in?  And what type of new key should be used?

Or am I heading down the wrong path altogether?

TM_PLAINTEXT 1
TM_RICHTEXT 2
TM_SINGLELEVELUNDO 4
TM_MULTILEVELUNDO 8
TM_SINGLECODEPAGE 16
TM_MULTICODEPAGE 32

the default is RICHTEXT | MULTIUNDO | MULTICP = 42 (2Ah)
try setting dwTEXTMODE (first quit editor2) to 41, and if that doesn't work, try 16+1+8 = 25

to test this please try it with this new test version:
