User:0mtwb9gd5wx/List of Windows Notepad third-party replacements with additional functionality

Notepad lacks many basic features available in other text editors, such as block selection and MDI, and file locking compliance, so it can open files that other processes have already opened.

Text editor additional features include syntax coloring, code folding, regular expressions, macros, per-document code page selection, themes, sorting, case changes, file-change detection, matching braces, visible line-endings, visible line-wrap indication.

"Starting with v13, EmEditor Free and EmEditor Professional use the same binary program. Running a single command switches Professional to Free, and vice versa. However, the Free version is available at home or at school only for personal use. It may not be used in corporate, government, or other offices. Once you downgrade the product to EmEditor Free, you will never be asked to upgrade or get any marketing messages"
