Summary
This program is like a supped-up version of NotePad with added functions and extended options not available in NotePad, including the ability to open up and to view more than one file at a time. It's just as it is described. However, I was hoping that I could apply global corrections to all files in view; i.e., I could correct a misspelled word simultaneously in 15 different documents simply by selecting all open files and using the Replace command. Maybe in the next version?
