If you are not happy with the current default notepad/WordPad available with windows then you can try something better. NotePro is the new software that will give you the simplicity of a notepad and the features of a word processor.
    This software has a clean, attractive interface with all the features and options right on the well-designed button bar. This software also handles standard text files, and creates and saves Rich Text Format, Word, Windows Write, and HTML files used by Microsoft Word and other word-processors. Some other options available include complete control over text appearance, font size and attributes (bold, italic, underscore, or strikethrough), and also use colored text, including background fills. Onscreen you can quickly increase or decrease text size, add super- or subscript text, and change the text alignment (flush left, centered, or flush right). This software also has a built-in Spelling Checker, and lets you import text from existing files. You can also embed or link to objects and images.
    This software is very easy to use and comes with a lot of options.
