  IMPORTANT NOTICE

EditPad Lite is an excellent program and probably the middle ground between the classical, not-that-helpful Windows Notepad and a code editor. If you need a utility that can do them both but will still emulate its core, note-taking traits, this is the tool you need.

EditPad Lite is so much more than a simple note editor. The tool is complex, and for the last couple of years, it has been constantly updated and well-maintained by its development team. The program is small in size and large in delivery. You can easily use one of its embedded functions to turn it into a portable app, so that makes the tool super-convenient and mobile as well.

Regarding the actual text writing and note-taking features, you can make almost all the common and some other, less expected, modifications. The text encoding is fully changeable and offers a useful preview function, you can define your own keystroke macros, conduct advanced searches using plain text, symbols, or regular expressions, replace targeted values in texts, and save your files in over 35 different formats.

Regarding its appearance, the application can quickly be switched to dark mode, in order for you to avoid eye strain. The interface, writing style, color text, edges, background, character map, and all other major distinctive visual elements can be individually styled using a rich color palette. The tool's functioning can also be fine-tuned to fit your expectations. Define your triggers and keyboard shortcuts, make the program the always-on-top window, or efficiently format your notes' content.

EditPad Lite exceeds its plain, dull, and boring text editor status. It successfully manages to be a useful tool for programmers as well. You can configure it to be an environment where you take notes, write snippets of code, or combine both. For example, if you wrote only code in one file, upon saving it, choose the right file format suggestion (based on the programming language you used), and quickly execute your code. With this editor, you can get super flexible, and save time.

EditPad Lite is a super-convenient, free program, and it is totally worth installing it. The developers who built the tool thought about everything and added extra nice features that make the application distinctive and sophisticated. EditPad Lite is probably one of the best Notepad alternatives out there.
