NikPad2.0.0

NikPad is a small and user-friendly application that comes in handy when you want to quickly create and edit existing plain text files. Pasted content can be stored in the temporary clipboard provided by the app.

Handle and edit the saved text from the clipboard

The program comes in the form of an executable file that can be run directly from the drive. Since it's portable, you can carry it on an external drive and launch it from any computer.Another advantage is that the app doesn't tie itself to the Windows system and doesn't leave any traces behind after it's been deleted. Files can be opened from and saved to TXT format. The temporary clipboard lets you organize, edit, remove and add new records with ease.

Customize the composition's look

It's possible to copy and paste content directly from other sources and arrange it in the page. You can format the text by changing the font type, size and color, insert bullets lists, and convert the characters to lower, upper, inverted and title case.

Hide unnecessary panels and lock important phrases from being modified

From the options, you have the choice to hide the status bar and toolbar, enable auto-saving, lock specific text, and open the temporary clipboard. Sadly, only HTML code can be inserted.There is no option to add images, the date and time, symbols or special characters. Plus, it would've been nice if the app came with rich file support, like RTF, DOC, HTML or HTM and automatic hyperlink recognition.

Decent word processor

The bottom line is that NikPad is an intuitive text editor designed to offer simple methods to write and customize plain text documents, manage the temporary clipboard and lock particular sentences from being modified accidentally. Thanks to its portability, the program doesn't create registry entries and consumes little system resources.
