    Wow, it's alive, and even grew twice as big. Still a great text editor/viewer. I use it for the latter, though the non ANSI warnings are annoying. IMHO still be best light text editor viewer out there. 4.5/5!

    Still the best notepad replacement. I keep trying others but I end up with metapad in the end. I'm now on Windows 7 and I wish at least the icon could be refreshed to look more modern but other than that I can't think of anything wrong with it.

    I wish he hadn't stopped developing it. Still got some annoying bugs. Otherwise great app.

    The best notepad replacement, so far.
    + especially useful RIGHT CLICK, MAKE, UPPERCASE option.

    Works flawlessly. Just wish it came with an installer to make replacement of Notepad a little faster.
