Highlight of matched parens not working properly

Thanks Alex. Seems to be a number of lines thing, i.e. if the beginning and end parens are too far apart and off the visible screen, the problem occurs. It seems to occur with all type of parens.

Powershell executable switch parameter not working

Thanks Alex. I understand and will live with this. It is not too inconvenient to use the args collection. In fact this is what I always use in Vbscript.

Highlight all instances of text selected in editor

Thanks Alex. I look forward to the feature. Currently I switch between Primalscript and notepad++ to use the feature. I find it to be a thorough way of cross-checking the correct use of variables as well as the correct use of variables in the right syntax and programmatic context.

Ctrl + Mouse click selection in editor

Thanks Alex. However find and replace will only replace instances of the same text that is nominated in the find ("Find What"). I am wishing to alter multiple instances of different test string selections e.g. convert FRED, BILL TOM and HARRY to lower case in one fowl swoop. If I use find ...

Ctrl + Mouse click selection in editor

I use the Notepad++ editor "Ctrl + mouse click selection" to selectively select numerous instances of text in the editor and then for example, convert all the instances of the text to upper or lower case. This is done by holding the Ctrl key down, selecting the first instance of text, then...

Highlight all instances of text selected in editor

I use the Notepad++ editor to identify all instances of the use of a variable so that I can track whether the variable is for example, passed correctly between functions, etc. To do this I simply double click my mouse on the first instance of the variable and all instances of the variable are highli...

PS2011 No Private Variable Debug

Thanks Alex for your very valued input. I now undertand why. I suppose I'll just have to use the Microsoft Powershell ISE or the PowerGUI Script Editor when I need to debug private variables.
