Suggested Short Description
---------------------------
NoteTab Light is an award-winning text editor packed with
time-saving features. It was the first web-enabled text editor
and the first of its kind to use a tabbed document interface.
NoteTab Light can handle very large documents (up to a
theoretical limit of 2 Gb). The program includes the original
"Editor Clipbook" - a flexible tool for handling text clips;
these can be anything from a single character to a large
"boilerplate" chunk of text. The Clipbook is particularly
popular for inserting HTML tags. NoteTab also offers a useful
Outline document format that lets you organize information in
a structured way. The editor lets you easily search and
replace text in all open documents or disk files, and criteria
can include multiple lines. Other features include support for
templates, strip HTML tags, convert documents to web pages,
sort/join/split/indent lines, calculate mathematical
expressions, and much more.


Suggested Long Description
--------------------------
NoteTab Light is a versatile text editor and a popular Notepad
replacement. It lets you open as many documents as system
resources will allow, each with its own tab in the tab bar.
Documents can be up to 2 Gb in size each.

One of the most significant features is the Editor Clipbook --
a flexible tool for handling text clips. These can be anything
from a single character to a large "boilerplate" chunk of
text. Clips are stored in libraries and retrieved by selecting
the corresponding header from the list or by typing the first
matching characters and pressing a function key. By
customizing clips with simple codes you can do anything from
wrapping the clip text around a selection (useful with HTML
tags), to launching other programs or sending documents
through MAPI e-mail, to loading documents and other file
management tasks, to calculating mathematical expressions with
definable variables, etc. An integrated script language turns
NoteTab into a programmable editor. Thanks to this Clipbook
tool, NoteTab can handle just about any text processing task.

NoteTab Light offers many other useful tools. You can for
example open Internet links in your browser, create outline
documents, convert text files to web pages or strip tags from
HTML documents, send documents as e-mail, capture text copied
to the Clipboard, view detailed text statistics, calculate
mathematical expressions, search/replace text in all open
documents or disk files. All standard text editor features
like read and write files in DOS/UNIX/Mac format, convert
between ASCII and ANSI, sort/join/split/indent lines,
automatic indentation, spell checker, thesaurus, etc. are also
integrated.

NoteTab Light is very customizable. You have a selection of
more than 80 commands for the toolbar and the main shortcut
menu. The editor's behavior can be fine tuned to suit your
needs thanks to a large selection of options. NoteTab Light
can even substitute Notepad by simply selecting a menu
command.
