Comments and Reviews
Said about Leafpad as an alternative
Mousepad is designed to be a general-purpose, lightweight text editor. Leafpad follows the same principle. All other programs on the list have extra features, mostly for programming, which make them unsuitable replacements
(Leafpad is sadly not Qt-based either, but that's unrelated)
Very similar to Windows Notepad.

Best for editing simple text, probably the lightest app. Not for coding, or anything a bit complex.
