Notepad/wordpad

[- Nightmare -]

I was wondering for a while....are there any alternatives to Notepad and Wordpad? If so what features do they have that make them better or much more efficient for writers to use (when they don't feel like using Word, Corel and the like)?

metapad (http://www.liquidninja.com/metapad/)

A small, fast (and completely free) text editor for Windows 9x/NT/XP with similar features to Microsoft Notepad but with many extra (and rather useful) features. It was designed to completely replace Notepad since it includes all of Notepad's features and much, much more.

ConTEXT (http://www.fixedsys.com/context/)
is a small, fast and powerful text editor, developed mainly to serve as secondary tool for software developers.
