    ... and suffered by comparison in those aspects, but was infinitely superior in every other way that matters (and there are a lot of other ways that matter).

      To be clear, I'm not arguing that Notepad++ or NotepadNext isn't superior to Notepad. I'm simply pointing out that the original Notepad had useful properties that have been lost. I didn't think that would be controversial.

        Yes, I understood your point and I agree it's not controversial. (My response was not so much pushback as feeling a need to point out Notepad was something of a wasted opportunity, it had those fundamental advantages but wasted them by being so miserably awful IMHO).
