    There are many alternatives to Microsoft Notepad and the best one out there in my opinion is Notepad++, but there are no alternatives to Notepad which actually look and feel like it. NoobNote aims to replace that.

    People joke about what IDE they use often, things like Word, MS Notepad, sometimes even Eclipse, and then often times MS Paint. People joke about MS Paint because it's not even a text editor, people joke about it because it doesn't have one feature in common with IDEs.

  9. dedtxt icon
     Like

    A dead simple plain-text editor. A bit like TextEdit or Notepad but even simpler and with fewer features. No hidden text. No formatting. No settings. One textarea and the current file. Raw bytes in, raw bytes out, UTF-8 by default, no line-ending weirdness. Install easily as a web app.
