Notepad - Hidden Options

Notepad has been synonymous with Microsoft Windows Operating System since its inception.

This built-in textual content editor is used to write programming code (HTML, PHP, ASP etc.) for website development. There are other makes use of too. This article will highlight those features. Right here is the list.

1.Windows Notepad can be used to store messages with date and time. Open Notepad application. Type ".LOG" within the first line without quotes. Save the file. Next time once you open the file you will discover notepad has added time and date to it. Nice way to create log/message files. This feature may also be activated by urgent the F5 key before saving the file.

2. Notepad is helpful when you need to copy content material from web pages and paste in Microsoft Excel or Word application. Usually, in case you paste directly in Excel or Word, the end result can be quite disastrous. The answer is Notepad.

Copy the content from a webpage and paste it in Notepad. Now, copy the content from Notepad and paste in Microsoft Excel or Word using the Unicode method.

3. This is neither a tip nor a assist command. This is called the 4 three three five sequence ( Notepad interprets this as unicode and not ANSI ). Write the next text in Notepad without quotes "Sara hid the details". Save the file. Open and look at the contents. Surprised!

4. Matrix effect: Open your notepad and type the following.

@echo off

shade 02

:start

echo %random% %random% %random% %random% %random% %random% %random% %random% % random% %random%

goto start

Save this as a.bat file. Open this file after saving. You ought to be able to see the matrix effect.

On a more considerate note. Type Q33N in notepad. It was the flight number of one of many planes that hit World Trade Center. Change the font to WINGDINGS. Check out the result. It seems our good old Notepad knew about the terror attack.
