Scarecrow Man Posted July 5, 2004 Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 notepad is just an exe in your system folder. C:\windows\system\notepad.exetry copying it from the CD? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent Smith Posted July 5, 2004 Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 Or alternately you could use something like editpad instead.I have been using editpad for several years, and find it to be a great replacement for notepad. It is available from herehttp://www.editpadpro.com/editpadlite.htmlMr. M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nellie2 Posted July 5, 2004 Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 what an excellent little utility. thanks Mr M. I use notepad a lot and this is excellent. I love the tabs, no more getting mixed up between multiple notepad files that are open in my task bar! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent Smith Posted July 5, 2004 Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 It's a shame really, in the old days, it used to be "postcardware". All the author asked, was that if you liked the program then to send him an unusual postcard for his collection. He was Dutch, and by all accounts had postcards from just about every country in the world.One small point of note for anybody who uses the program. By default it will minimise to the system tray when you close the program. This is fine until you try to delete a txt file which you have recently opened, and then you get an access denied message. You can either right click the editpad icon in the systray and then delete the file, or , as I prefer, go into the Editpad options, and stop it from minimising to the systray.Mr. M.
