Fix paste-over-selection and add selection-aware improve and auto dark mode

  • Paste (Ctrl+V) now replaces selected text instead of inserting at caret start, matching standard editor behavior
  • Use WPF native SelectedText for paste/drop to preserve undo stack (Ctrl+Z)
  • Ctrl+R with a selection improves only the selected text, leaving the rest unchanged
  • Auto-detect Windows dark/light mode from system settings and apply matching theme

PromptPad v1.0.0

Windows prompt editor for AI CLI tools — serves as $EDITOR for Claude Code, git, and others.

Features

  • $EDITOR integration — promptpad.exe <file>, line offset with +N, stdout mode
  • Image paste — Ctrl+V screenshots saved as PNG with Markdown placeholders
  • AI prompt improvement — Ctrl+R sends text to Claude via Claude Code CLI
  • Window persistence — position and size remembered between sessions

Requirements

Download

  • PromptPad.exe — self-contained, no .NET installation needed (first launch extracts runtime, ~5 sec one-time delay)

  2. Place it in a folder (e.g., C:\Tools\)
  3. Set as your editor: setx EDITOR "C:\Tools\PromptPad.exe"
  4. Open a new terminal — any tool that uses $EDITOR will now open PromptPad
