eGo®Z Posted November 8, 2004 Share Posted November 8, 2004 However, there was a modified version original Notepad (which has more key-bindings) in the 1.x, I think we don't need this, too.Why NO? It was a very good one, i think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krick Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 So the version 2.0 will not contain any Notepad replacement.However, there was a modified version original Notepad (which has more key-bindings) in the 1.x, I think we don't need this, too.I also think you should keep the Notepad from 1.x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krick Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 Anyone know of any editors which will allow you to copy and paste COLUMNS rather than most editors that only allow you to copy and paste ROWS?This would be very useful to me.Try UltraEdit. It has a "Column Mode"...http://www.ultraedit.com/I've been using it every day for about 5 yearsIncidentaly, the other program [not an editor] that I use every day and find indispensable is Beyond Compare...http://www.scootersoftware.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

celtish Posted November 11, 2004 Share Posted November 11, 2004 Metapad is simple yet highly configurable plus it hyperlinks stuff on the page and it's a straightforward slot-in replacement for notepad. I've used it for a long time and I'm very happy with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenoitRen Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 What I want is basically XP's Notepad for Windows 95. Same as the older version, except that there is no file size limit, search and replace, plus the ability to jump to lines with numbers.Isn't there any Notepad replacement that has the following features but does NOT resort to the RichText control?

It has line numbering, GoTo, S&R, favorites, tabbed multiple documents interface, opens big files (even binaries), syntax highlighting, and a quite unique and very usefull vertical selection mode. It's only in German though and it lacks wordwrap unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
