Metapad is a text editor for Microsoft Windows 9x/NT/XP, developed by Alexander Davidson since 1999.
Some of its key features include:
- No file size limit under Windows 9x
- UNIX text file support
- Commit word wrap
- Tab and newline search
- Hyperlinking support
- Auto-indent mode
- Block indent and unindent
- Language plugin support
- Can replace windows Notepad [1]
Metapad was programmed in pure ANSI C with the Win32 API. The aim of Metapad is to provide a near drop-in replacement of Notepad in Windows. There are two versions of Metapad: a full and LE (light edition) version. The full version uses the more featured RichEdit control, while the LE version uses the slightly faster Edit control.
