Verily I say unto thee, that Roy Schestowitz spake thusly:
> notepad hasn't caught up even with vim.
Comparing notepad to vim is like comparing a candle to a nuclear
reactor. Notepad is little more than a Sticky Notes application,
without the stickiness. Wordpad is a hairs-breadth better than
notepad, but frankly there simply isn't anything in Microsoft's
portfolio that's anything close to a real text editor.
There's the WYSIWYG stuff like the all-singing Word, of course,
that's bloated up to the hilt with crap designed to make Web pages
with miles of embedded; MSO-specific garbage, if someone should be
stupid enough to want to fire up that behemoth just to edit a source file.
