CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Once you explore the power of NoteTab Pro, you may find this text editor beautiful despite its off-putting interface. The Pro version adds tag highlighting and allows you to program your own features. The left-hand column displays a list of commands, called clips, that do anything from inserting bits of text to generating code. Each library, the roster of which appears as buttons at the bottom of the screen, contains its own set of clips. The FTP library, for example, lets you create server profiles, connect, upload and download files, and issue various commands. The publisher's site offers many user-created libraries, or you can make your own. You can create your own clips by pressing Ctrl-Alt-F2 and edit them easily.
The Tidy HTML clip (in the HTML and Utilities libraries) incorporates the free download HTML Tidy, available on Download.com. While the TopStyle library similarly requires a CSS editor of that name, we couldn't get it to work. We would like to see a trial of the spelling and thesaurus features, too. NoteTab Pro isn't a tool for casual users, but power users and programmers should find plenty to love.

Version: NoteTab Pro 5.7
Pros: Nicest feature for me is the ability to catch the clipboard content on CUT or COPY actions. The clip book function is a mighty tool to extend the functionality of the program.
Cons: The handling of Unicode-files is bad (only action is to load as read-only to protect the Unicode notation). Same with DOS text files, you can save a file DOS coded, but it will be reloaded ANSI coded. So special characters are lost or better wrong printed.
So for ANSI only use, NoteTab is to be recommended because of ease of use, good functionality and good extensibility (and because of my special gimmick with the clipboard). But definitely not to use with different character coding.

"Best text editor, can't live without it."
Pros: Stable, can't crash it. Handles huge files. Features that I actually use. Complete control of text files. Even handles EBCDIC from my AS/400s. Regular Expression replacement and searches work great. Love this software. First thing I load on any new machine.

Version: NoteTab Pro 5.7
Pros: This text editor packs the most features found in any text editor I have found. Of the many text editors I have tried, this one always exceeds the capabilities of all of the others.
