RNotepad

Many Windows editions have been launched over the years, with updated looks, updated features and new functionalities. But there is one thing they all have in common: the ever-popular Notepad text editor.

Needless to say, a text editor is mandatory on any operating system, at least to take and save notes, if not to open regular text documents. ReactOS is no exception and developers created applications that are optimized for this operating system. Since ReactOS apps also run on Windows, you can try them out first on your Windows PC.

RNotepad is practically a copy of the popular Notepad that is optimized to run on ReactOS. Released under an open-source license, the application delivers a text editor with simple options and a basic feature set.

You can use it to open, create and edit simple text files, enjoying basic formatting tools, such as word wrapping and text formatting.

The application features built-in search capabilities and a “find and replace” tool that surely comes in handy. It is also possible to insert the current time and date into the text via the “Edit” menu.

There is nothing more to say about RNotepad, as what you see is what you get: a simple text editor with the most basic feature set similar to the original Windows Notepad app.
