While not wanting to sound like a commercial for UltraEdit, here is a
link to the main features of the product.
I spent many years programming (mainframes, minis, and micros) and this is the best editor I have ever used. It is an excellent replacement for Notepad.
How it differs from Word is mainly in its philosophy of operations. Everything is displayed, there are no hidden codes. (This is wonderful when you are setting up hyperlinks.) It also has a fully functional hex editor that I wrongly thought I would never need with the
Harvard Classics series.
There is a 30 or 45 days free trial of the product.
