*** UPDATED ON 06-12-2004 ***
Some Bugs Fixed and Added Right Context Menu.

Notpad 2004 is a Windows Notepad/WordPad Replacement.

It has the same functions of Notepad plus many more of them.
I think the functions are self-explanatory.

A note: The INI file must be in Windows or WINNT directory. :)

Thanks to El choni and it´s "RichEdit" Library And Paul L. for it´s "RegINI" library.

Download it in here:

Source code included.
Try it and write about it.

Thanks in advance.

Yeah, sure they are. But to know them I have to download first ;-)
Come on, write something about them, make me hot! :)

Ok

Ok,

Here a few hints:

With Notpad 2004, you can copy,move,delete and rename the document, Quick open the documents you want, save your selection to a file, UpperCase, LowerCase and ProperCase a Word, among other things.

Notpad is just lovely, but Notepad is faster. It is rather a Wordpad replacement, than a notepad replacement. Something beetween: it is faster than wordpad (and more advance), but slower than notepad.

the sourcecode is very perspicuous

EditPad Lite is free and far more versitle than any MS NotePad application.
http://www.editpadlite.com/
Look for the "Free EditPad Lite" link on that page for the free version. Used it here for years and love it. Has all the creature feature I want and need in a "plain text editor".

What is NotePad 2004 anyway? Is this something you wrote or should this NotePad 2004 post be in the off topic forum as a MS side topic?

Randy,

I agree with you that are in the market many other editors, notepads and wordpads that are must better that mine.
it´s true but you have missed the point, which is share knowledge with comunity board.

I know that somewhere inside my code, someone will use some part just to put in their programs.
So, the point is sharing things, that´s why we are a "comunity".

That EditPad looks a lot like NoteTab, which has been around for about 6 or 7 years now...

Then again, you can only come up with so many ideas for a plain text editor...

Nice little App :)

Works a treat and will probably stay on my system ;)

I think Randy missed the point, I think he didn't realise this was a purebasic application :oops:

Well done :D

You are corect on the second count. There was little explaination so I guess I mistook the name "NotePad" to be an optional MS release.

As for others being better, maybe others have more features. I didn't download it yet because I'm too lazy to open my firewall but I'm sure yours is superior if for no other reason, because it is shared source code. I try to make useful contributions. Sometimes I just show my ignorance instead :)

Thank's

Yes, thank's for it, nice one !
And great of you to share the code, will be of great source to have a look.

Will you add functionnalities like line numbers, a toolbar, a context menu with the right clic mouse button (copy, cut, paste . . .)

Thank's again !

Good work but you really should leave the name of coders intact within any third party written includes (.pbi) you use, such as NicTheQuick's string handling routines include, I noticed they've been deleted. Just for politeness sake.
Hey, are you using the beatnik gui
Yep it uses that too. :)
