  • To type in the Scratch Pad window, click in the window where you want to add text and begin typing. You can also use standard copy-and-paste features. The contents of the Scratch Pad window do not affect the operation of the debugger. This window exists solely to help with text editing.

  • If you close the Scratch Pad window, your text is preserved and is available when you reopen the window. You can also save text from the Scratch Pad window by associating it with a file.

Association with the file can be ended either by selecting the End file association short-cut menu option or by closing and reopening Scratch Pad.

  • (Menu only) End file association ends Scratch Pad's association with a specified text file. All text in Scratch Pad prior to selecting this option is saved in the file. All text typed in Scratch Pad after the association is ended is no longer saved in the text file.
