People who do a lot of writing often prefer WordPerfect.
I prefer notepad.

I have notepad on my start menu. I use it for a handy place to
accumulate things from the clipboard. Note pad is an easy way to
convert stuff you copy from web pages to a flat text file.

Most of my phone numbers/addresses are still in notepad.
I use(d) 2 byte prefixes in the first 2 columns to sort with a
mainframe sort utility.
Since I don't have a mainframe anymore, I've migrated most
to a VB address book app.
But I always add them to notepad anyway, to print for a list
magneted on the refrigerator.
