Microsoft is killing WordPad in Windows after 28 years
(www.bleepingcomputer.com)
Another advertisement for Linux...
Not a huge problem for me: (1) Never really used wordpad. (2) Used WordPerfect from 1999-2003 (3) Used Open Office and Libre Office since 2003 (4) I use Linux now
I use textpad for helping with coding and note keeping. No goddamn text formatting, just plain ascii with windows or unix line endings. Quick and easy macros, etc.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
