Jesus, MS, is it too much to ask for a bundled text editor that gets the job done and doesn't completely suck?
I'm getting ready to image some laptops. I'm putting together a csv that pairs asset tags with MAC addresses.
The MAC address is printed as a barcode on the box, so I scan that in.
Sometimes I scan the wrong barcode, so I hit Ctrl-Z.
And for some fucking reason, Notepad thinks that means I want to undo EVERY SINGLE THING I HAVE PUT IN THE DOCUMENT and leave me with a completely blank window, instead of, you know, doing something remotely fucking useful.
...I hear TextPad Pro's pretty good. And NotePad+? Isn't there one called NotePad+?
(It really is kind of astounding, the disconnect of what you get out of the box from one OS to another. Windows: not a whole hell of a lot, but don't worry, you probably bought from a vendor who loaded your shit up with crapware. MacOS: really quite a wide array of pretty good software, but for some reason no simple paint program anywhere to be found. The Linuxes/BSD's/what-have-you: pretty much whatever the fuck you want; if it's not on the disc it's in the repos, and if it's not in the repos you can compile it yourself. The idea of a Linux distro without a decent text editor is contradiction in terms; I can't say I've ever used one whose default installation came with fewer than five.)
