| PocketNotepad (Pocket PC) |
To every Notepad fun, pocket version of Notepad is now available!
The concept of PocketNotepad is "To provide the same feature as
Desktop Notepad does" or "Nothing added to the original Notepad". :-)
That is, no toolbars, rebar bands, etc...
On the other hand, it does not provide several functions as it is
becoming to its name. The eliminated functions are, for example,
printing, drag&drop and so on.
Thus, in the case you do not use Notepad on your desktop mainly, it
is not considered as appropriate to use PocketNotepad heavily on your
Windows Mobile device. It is thought as appropriate to use PocketNotepad for
viewing text files, for taking short memo, for a buffer in cutting and
pasting.
While, in the case you are a heavy user of desktop Notepad,
PocketNotepad would be the most preferable editor on your Windows Mobile device.
It's small, light, cute and simple. PocketNotepad does not require
MFC dll. It's really small!

5.2 2009.11.14 False device type recognition has been resolved
- False device type recognition, that is, PocketNotepad falsely recognized Windows Mobile devices as old Handheld PC devices under certain conditions, which was introduced in Ver 5.0, has been resolved. Caused by this false recognition, PocketNotepad had several problems, for example, it could execute multiple instances and it could not retain unsaved texts when it was closed by a task manager.
5.1 2009.11.2 File size restriction has been brought back
- I brought back the file size restriction because of a bug found in Microsoft Edit Control.
- I fixed a problem observed in "Save As" function. Sometimes, an entered name was used without "txt" extension.
- Installers for English and Japanese languages are combined into one.
5.0 2009.9.25 File size restriction has been removed
- File size restriction has been removed. You can open any size of text files now. The file size is limited only by the amount of memory your device has.
- VGA and larger resolutions have been fully supported.
- Icons with sizes 44x44 and 22x22 have been added which are mainly used by Windows Mobile Standard devices.
- PocketNotepad now executes only a single instance. It executed multiple instances on QVGA landscape Windows Mobile Standard devices.
- Menus have been rearranged in order not to scroll when used with QVGA landscape Windows Mobile Standard devices.
- Dialog boxes have been rearranged for QVGA landscape Windows Mobile Standard devices.
