I’ve already blogged about TextPad being a great alternative to Notepad.exe. Now TextPad is shareware but you can keep using it forever as long as you put up with the odd warning message.

But in my opinion as far as alternatives to notepad go, “Textpad” is neat.

What’s prompted this repeat post is that, I’ve just discovered some awesome features that I was using Excel Macros to try and achieve and it was messy.

Just say you want to sort a list of words and remove all duplicates. Now this is the sort of thing I need to do all the time when I’m building websites or designing adwords campaigns.

Well this little beauty does it one click, just bamn. I was overjoyed because that one little thing saves me hours.

Maybe you will find some new features of Textpad you’d like to comment on. Feel Free to add them here.
