it's free, incredibly small (file size) and can handle most any text file.
Works, Word, WordPad, NotePad, WordPerfect, etc.
extremely handy at colleges or schools. Applications | PortableApps.com - Portable software for USB drives Quote: |

Something is wrong here because notepad.exe hasn't changed -ever.
You should be able to open any .txt with it.
