Microsoft is killing WordPad in Windows after 28 years
(www.bleepingcomputer.com)
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.
Off to the retirement home
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
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
