The original Notepad shipped with Windows is probably the handiest program of all times, small, fast, without frills! Notepad2 tries to follow this principle, it’s a small, fast and free text editor with syntax highlighting for HTML and other common languages. Notepad2 works on Windows 9x, Me, NT, 2k and XP. It is written by Florian Balmer
