Textpad - Simple online notepad, no fancy stuff. Just write.

@israelobiagba Yeah.. No distractions. Just write.

@kaushalvyas010 thanks for the correction :D

@israelobiagba looks like a stripped-down copy of https://shrib.com to me...

@zac_46 I like the idea of not having to install an extension

@paulodef @zac_46 Does it save text, on closing browser and reopening it again ?

@dhruvp2014 Yes it does!

@paulodef I agree with you despite we are talking about a 1-min task to do once.

@syndicatefx what are the main differences with Papier?

@syndicatefx Not sure I'll dismiss my good ol' NotePad++, but let's give it a try ;)

@paulodef I'm with you, but it depends on what you're doing, or need.

@syndicatefx What are the 3 characters at the beginning of the saved file for?  EF BB FF

@geonomad Can you tell me what software you're using to open your .txt file on your computer? Those characters are explained here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/By... I couldn't replicate that on any editors i use, but since TextPad saves file as "text/plain;charset=utf-8", that is the reason you might be seeing those characters at the beginning of your file, based on the wiki link above.

@syndicatefx I am saving the file from Chrome/51.0.2704.103 on W10 and opening with Editpad Pro 5.4.5. You are right it is saving it as a UTF-8 stream instead of plain text. If I convert from UTF-8 to ANSI, they go away. No big deal. My editor was just expecting pure text in the file.

@patrickryanlane Hey, thanks! Text is stored only on your browser, using the Web Storage API, no where else. In simple terms the browser has its own "data-base" to store key/value pairs. Read about the concept here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en...

@syndicatefx awesome, thanks for sharing! Another question: any plans to add markdown support?

@patrickryanlane Nope, not at the moment. If i do it will only be for the download file extension(choose .txt or .md), but i'm not planning on adding syntax highlighting or previews.

@maxine_kerley_bowen Not sure what you mean by minimal margins. The margins on either side of the text are hard coded in the CSS, and get progressively smaller on smaller window sizes. But there is no way right now for a user to customize those settings.

Thanks

@jamesbossjb Thanks!

@rufilata Thanks!

@reachrishabh I think it's more different than better, it depends on what you need to do.

@hanu_bar Thank you! Please enjoy.
