In depth
A closer look at TextOn
The evolution of technology reached new peaks with every few years. Default operating system features now make it possible to have text read out loud so you can focus on more important tasks. For instance, TextOn gives you the possibility to open existing documents, edit them, and have everything read to you. One of the main advantages consists in the lack of an installer to take any of your time or effort. More than that, it can easily fit on any thumb drive so you always have a trustworthy editing tool regardless of the computer you’re working on, without worrying that registry entries get affected, because these are not modified in the process. Most of the space is the text pad where you get to enlist all your thoughts and tasks. Sadly, there’s no additional help to know the number of words or characters written so far, line numbering for source code writing, or rulers to help align paragraphs and page layouts with ease. There’s not even an additional method of obtaining these details either.
