A Lightweight soft,the best choice to Instead of the windows notepad

This soft is not suitable for those programmers or other coders.

If you need more powerful,then you could select notepad++

Anyway,its also a good good software

It's great that the program has an alphabetizing/sort option. I only wish it could be found without needing to consult the web.

Incredibly small & fast, easily configurable with tons of options. Very easy to make a drop-in replacement for notepad with a ton more functionality, but still really simple. I like it.
