When the cursor was not constrained to the text, deleting in line select mode didn't work.

When all instances of a search pattern anchored to the start of a word or line were replaced with nothing, the replacement continued while the search pattern could still be matched.
Drag and drop of a shortcut opened the .lnk file.
Find in Files needed to check if the last matched line was terminated when logging the output.
When a Find in Files regular expression matched across line boundaries, the line counter sometimes got out of step, depending on the text that was matched.
When the cursor was not constrained to the text, and the last line of selected block of text was empty, the block could not be deleted.
When the cursor was not constrained to the text, text pasted beyond the current end of line was inserted at the start of the next line.
When loading a workspace created with TextPad 6.x, bookmarks in binary views were not restored correctly.
Problems sorting when last line was unterminated:
- Number of duplicate lines deleted was off by 1;
- Current line was not updated after undo;
- Undo left final end of line characters.
