The only thing that prevents me from rating it 5 stars for features is that it doesn't handle RTF (Rich Text Format) files. If it did that then it'd be perfect.
You will see another review here, suggesting that another app (Metapad) does edit RTF files. That review was written by a liar. The person who wrote it tells lies (and makes the baby Jesus cry). Metapad does nothing of the sort. Don't waste your time, stick with EditPad. That's what I'm doing until I finally find a portable, tabbed editor with all the strengths of EditPad that also edits RTF files. Then I'll drop it faster than an ugly baby and pretend I never loved it really, because I'm fickle, but secretly I'll feel guilty and think "Oh, if only EditPad had been able to handle RTF files too, I'd never have turned away from it. Oh, how I wish the dev(s) had thought to make it create/edit RTF files before it was too late. Oh, if only they read the reviews on SnapFiles ."
(And by 'create''edit''handle' RTF files, obviously I mean bold/italic/underline/strikethrough font types, left/centre/right/fully justified pages, with indenting and image embedding - like all the other features of Wordpad I wish it could also replace).
Until then though, EditPad is the only text editor for me. And it should be more than enough for you too. Get it. Use it. Never regret it.
