| #1-Cetus C pad, rightfully
touted as a
replacement for Notepad, Cetus C Word Pad
replaces both Notepad and Word Pad and
unless you need a industrial strength
word processor for more than just letters
this is it. All the standard word
processing features to include an
excellent spell checker embedded objects
so you can have pictures and mail merge.
It's also MAPI complient so you can email
your document right from C Pad plus
add-ons for over 12 languages. If all you
do is straight forward letters there is
absolutely no need to spend a dime much
less enrich the coffers of Microsoft. http://cetussoft..com

Dick Chase's Java Editor it's that an a good
replacement for the notepad but just the
notepad. No spell checker but other
features that make it unique and perfect
for webmasters who have a lot of Java. It
is also great if you want just a quick
notepad. It loads in an instant. One cute
feature is that if you want to know how
your text would look on the web just hit
the button calling up your browser and
there is it yet no HTML. Handles multiple
documents, large documents and more.Dick

| #3 WinVi it opens faster than a
speeding bullet, loads large files in a
single load and is much more powerful
than the 98 pound weakling Notepad.
Programmers will love, UNIX gurus forced
to use windows will like it since it is a
Windows version of Vi and it free. One
other unique feature is line numbers. If
you write large documents it sure helps
to know where you are at proofing them.
Every line is numbered. However the
numbers when turned off disappear even
from previously saved document.. Alas no
spell checker otherwise the perfect
replacement. WinVi
(English) also in German and
Spanish + more. |
| #4 Star Office
Suite a
complete and I mean complete office suite
with everything you would want or need.
This is the main office suite I've found
packaged with LINUX the hot OS that
without meaning to is starting to give
folks in Redman fits. The layout is
slightly different than you have been
conditioned to but once you get the hang
of it forget MS. The problem? 53 meg
download but available on CD for a small
fee. 20 bucks or so versus 500 and
change, no contest. http://stardivision.com |

effort. http://www.critec.co.nz |
