It has a very good regular expression search feature that can be replaced on. It also handles search and replace for end-of-line characters, tabs, etc. to get badly formatted text under control.

Also a good archive decompresser like 7Zip can extract the content of several ebook formats to the basic files (epub -> html).
That Notepad2 sounds interesting.

I added your unzipper suggestion to the list, in quotes, with your posting
name in brackets. I hope you don't mind, the idea being to try and make
a consolidated list in that first post. (Sorta like a sticky)

Luck;
Ken
