Stupid Notepad

Stupid Notepad - The Simplest Notepad Ever!

It's simply impossible to come up with something simpler.

The program allows you to edit text files. You enter the path to the file and can view and edit it, as well as create new files. Why is this notepad stupid? Because it's extremely simple and primitive, making it understandable for everyone! The interface consists of just seven elements:
- Text field for entering the file path;
- "Browse..." button;
- "Open" button;
- "New" button;
- "Save" button;
- Text field for viewing and editing the file's text;
- "Exit" button.
This is my first even slightly useful Python program, so I'd be grateful if you'd test it and see if this stupid notepad proves useful!

Stupid Notepad is an open source project. You can read the code in "Stupid Notepad.py" in this folder or visit GitHub: github.com/artemik01/stupid-notepad
