TED Notepad is a freeware editor for true plain-text. It looks like the original Windows Notepad, but provides many features and tools for quick, easy and advanced editing. The light-weight application fits on a floppy or USB and loads instantly with no installation required. Offers many text-processing functions and tools, many hotkeys and clipboards. You will find several inovative features too. It is designed especially for writing plain-text documents, creating scripts or html-like files.
Because TED Notepad supports only very basic formatting, you cannot accidentally save special formatting in documents, that need to remain pure-text. This is especially useful, when creating html/php Web pages, because no special characters/formatting may appear in a html/php Web page source.
TED Notepad was designed to completely replace the popular Windows Notepad in every-every way. Besides that, it has been covered by a variety of text tools, functions, features, clipboards and hotkeys, optimized to the highest performance; while keeping the intuitive conservative user interface. It was developed and improved with all the know-how that I gained during all those studies and it is completely free. If you want to show your support, please, donate to this project or just tell your friends. The more people like it, the more motivation there is to improve.
The application was developed at the Labs of Faculty of Mathematics and Physics of the Charles University in Prague; written in pure ANSI C language (no MFC, no C++, no Borland), using the system API functions, compiled with Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0. Instead of other Notepad replacements, TED was developed to be the most stable and as fast as possible program. Without wizards, objects and toolbars; but with help and support of the other students there; I think it is now what it ought to be.
I have made this project, because the Windows Notepad was not enough for me. And I am sure you still have a lot of ideas, how to enhance the Notepad but to cherish a fame of a monkey application. So please write me about it! I hope: It's all about communication, the rest is technology ...
