One-Line Notepad Paragraphs...

it used to bug me reading a 1 line paragraph, and to scroll and scroll to the right; till i made a simple little discovery. felt like sharing it here, with those who may not know about it...

actually, this occurs when the WordWrap setting has not been checked. to set it, select 'Format' in Notepad's main menu and click on 'Word Wrap'. The paragraphs will be formatted to fit the width of the window ! made life a li'l easier for me

too old!!!!

Ya too old .. but still lots of people dont know about this !!

Shiiit, I did not know that. Thanks man.

WTF??? is this a tutorial??

old but still handy.. and its always good for those who dont know it

its a small, old but handy tip for those who may not know about it.
experts should ofcourse ignore !

this forum is for all u know : noobs, learners, experts, and uber-techies like u too

I don't know that.Thanks !

I didnt knows this Thank You I had the same boring problem. Keep posting Ignore others comments ples.

even I was not knowing that

select 'Format' in Notepad's main menu and click on 'Word Wrap'. The paragraphs will be formatted to fit the width of the window !

Thanx for sharing this great piece of info.

One more thing which I'll want to add is that when u enable Word Wrap feature, the Status Bar will be disabled and the option will also be grayed out in View menu.

But there is a work around for it

Just open regedit and goto:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Notepad

And in right-side pane, change the value of DWORD value StatusBar to 1

Lol and I thought even the worst of all geekiness knew Wordwrap !

thats bcoz registry hacking & resource hacking r my favorite time-pass and I love them

but guys! behind this knowledge r ur precious comments & appreciations, which always encourage me to go forward and do something extra-n-special in these fields

Vishal Gupta ki Jai...

LOL...seriously.. u guys ought to have known this..
__________
feels to me like someone is telling me the shortcut for copy/paste

ok then

here is one more very basic tip for notepad, which will have "those of you 'who know' " hollering 'old old old' and pulling their hair in frustration...

Open a blank Notepad file

Write .LOG as the first line of the file, press enter.
Save the file and close it.
When u open it next (and every time), Notepad appends the current date and time to the end of the file and places the cursor on the line after.

old trick again..

Grrr
are u purposefully doing this!
