    Does anyone use notepad for anything other than looking at config files? I mean, does anyone write documents with notepad?

      It has such a distinct lack of any features whatsoever, that it makes it a perfect tool for practicing written assignments for language exams.

      I only use it to strip HTML text down to plain text. As long as it can do that, I’ll probably keep using it unless something better comes around.

      I used to use it for taking quick notes when I had a slow computer. I didn’t want to wait for Word to load, so I’d just use Notepad. Now I use Post Its or just don’t write stuff down as much.
