meanwhile, wordpad.. probably used by more people over the age of seven than paint is, getting axed.
microsoft has office subs to sell, but they do not have a photoshop or gimp or even a paint.net alternative to sell.
I've been using Notepad++ for a good while now and it's proven to be a great alternative to MS WordPad.
Can you format at all in Notepad++? I tend to use it for notes jot down in a rush or editing tiny scripts. For stuff that needs to look prettier, I tend to use Google Docs.
Yes and then some. It has built in support for a lot of programming languages plus allows you to add more. It also support extended and regex find/replace.
