Love you :)
Comment on Notepad gets AI features like Summarize, Write, and Rewrite, using local and cloud models.

What’s funny is that this likely irritated one of Microsofts own devs enough that they said ‘fuck all of this’ and invented the new cli app called Edit.
It’s under 200kb and runs as a standalone binary if you want. Also supports mouse input.

This is cool, but it’s not a replacement for notepad.

I mean it has all the features notepad had.
*You can type into it

It’s a terminal style editor.

Who cares? It does the same thing, maybe except not having different font support and printing.

But you can still put text in it right. So it does the same thing.
Why do we give a flying fluffy who is it about anything else.

With the tagline:
Just like original Notepad lol

Well, yes, but actually no. It's more like MS-DOS's
EDIT.COM
since it runs in a command line / "DOS" window.In fact, since
EDIT.COM
went through a couple of distinct variants back in the day, you could say that this is the third variant of it.The other two being 1) the BASIC-deactivated side of
QBASIC.EXE
which was an editor and programming language in one, and then 2) a stand-alone, from the ground up, version (with no BASIC to disable) which came along with Win9x / MS-DOS 7.I keep a copy of the latter in my DOSBox config. It's only 70kB.

I didn’t mean the style chosen for the editor. I only meant the tagline.
And edit.com was the shit and will always be my top 5 favorite text editors. Yes, more than vim.

Markdown varies a little from instance to instance, but you ought to be able to get away with a backslash before a problematic character (like that dot) or else backticks around something to get monospace text.
edit\.com → edit.com
`EDIT.COM` →
EDIT.COM
Try not to twist your brain on how I managed to get the left hand sides of those arrows.
