One thing I would really like that I haven't seen in any text editor is to be able to browse the different .txt, .rtf whatever files in the same folder. All it could be is just a "Next File" and "Previous File" buttons or menu items.
Then maybe in the options you'd select what files it cycles through.....or maybe you could have a "next -> text file", "next -> rtf file", etc....
No clue...Does this sound useful to enough people?
Thanks
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Metapath is a cool little proggie; just a little clumsy.
If you want to browse just .txt files, Irfanview will do it.
I've been searching for a while for a proggie that treats text based files (rtf,doc,pdf etc) like Irfanview/ACDSee treats image files.
The closest I found was the gallery portion of the Soft602 suite; nice preview of all the major formats, the only drawback is that it's big and clumsy (and XP-ugly).

I had the same idea!
I've come across a little file browser, which has the "Next File" and "Previous File" commands, and can be configured to open files in Notepad++:

It's good idea, I'm missing this possibility too.
