I've always grokked "Notepad" as bare-bones software that just
has the rock-bottom essentials to qualify as a text editor.
IIRC the original (Win 3 or earlier) "notepad" was little more than one of the
sample programs in their SDK - a simple edit control with a menu and save/load.
In the earlier versions this limited the size of the file it could edit to 32K.
Tend to use Notepad++ when I have to do anything on Windows these days, though
that's getting a bit too smart for my liking.
vi and emacs ftw. (Yes, I use both :)
