I have been receiving alot of messages about pasting into this app lately, and i want to clarify some thing. If you paste using right click or the edit menu instead of CTRL+V the text will be visible, also if you do insist on pasting with CTRL+V i added a button down at the bottom that says "Color to White", if you click that it should make your text visible. Also if you try to open a file with this and nothing shows up but the app, im sorry, you'll need to use File->Open, i am still working on it taking command line arguments to open files. Any other bugs, just PM or e-mail me, i love to get suggestions, and constructive crit. (just don't go to harsh on me!)

Notepad (Glass Edition) is a program i made in my spare time to try and make boring old Microsoft Notepad look a little spiffier and modern. It has a completely glassed surface which goes well with the "Aero" theme on Windows Vista and Windows 7. If you would like the source code just PM me, i'll send you the visual studio solution file. It is programmed in C#.
Updates: ======= v1.0:Initial release v1.1:Fixed a minor bug v1.2:Added Text Alignment
Requirements: =============== OS: At least windows Vista, but i added code to make it compatible on earlier OSes, you just wont have the glass effect. (No, this won't work on Mac or Linux, sorry guys)
Use the download link that is to the right side. The one that is hosted by DeviantArt. That still works perfectly, and always will. I couldn't re-upload it even if i had to though. I lost the source code a good 3 years ago (so it's not exactly a "new" notepad ).
However... I am making a new notepad. Not a successor to this per say, as it is a different code base, but it is still a glass window. But packed with MANY more features, including syntax highlighting for if you need to write a quick script You can find it on my profile, it is my featured deviation called "Codename: Ava"
Can you do the same with openoffice?? Anyways, it's great. I can translate it into Spanish or Italian. Just tell me how. Greetings!!! tangovirtud@gmail.com
Actually, this was written from scratch, and uses no part of the original notepad. Doing something like this for OpenOffice would require me to write my own office suite.
Hi there!! I found a little program that does it. You don't even need to have aero effect, as it works on win XP. The program is called Glass2k It's so light that you can't believe it does it all.
I like this notepad and changed it out with original... but I had to change back due to its still in beta phase. For ex... you cant use it for " .ini " files ( file format for rainmeter) and a couple more. But all in all its good for jotting down things in a hurry with a little style
the links have already expired and I wanna experience for myself this new notepad for myself.
thanks!
