About

Caxton is a native macOS text editor built for files that break everything else: multi-gigabyte logs, CSVs past Excel's 1,048,576-row limit, SQL dumps, and single-line minified files. It memory-maps files instead of loading them into RAM, so a 10 GB, 80-million-line log opens immediately, a full-file search returns 1.6 million matches in 1.3 seconds, and memory stays under 200 MB. Large CSVs open as a typed, sortable, editable grid: sort 2 million rows numerically in 8.2 seconds, filter, dedupe, and edit cells, then save back to the same plain CSV file. Find and replace runs at scale, including Replace All across 1.6 million sites in 1.7 seconds as a single undo step, plus batch replacement pairs and find-in-files with previews and backups. AppKit and Swift throughout, no Electron, notarized, works fully offline. Every performance claim is published with methodology at caxton.app/docs/benchmarks. 7-day free trial, no card required.

About

WordPad is a basic text-editing app you can use to create and edit files, include text with different fonts and colors, insert pictures, and add links to other files. You can use WordPad to open and save text files (.txt), rich text files (.rtf), Word documents (.docx), and OpenDocument text files (.odt). Files in other formats will open as plain text files and might not appear as expected. Some features, like headers, footers, and annotations, aren’t supported in WordPad. If you open a file with these features and then save the file in WordPad, you’ll lose the content in these features. If you want to change such a file, but don’t want to lose the original content, tap or click Save as and save the file with a different name. That way you can make changes to a copy of the file while keeping the content in the original file intact. For more info about what each button does, press and hold the button for a description (or if you’re using a mouse, point to the button).

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It comes free with windows and is perfect for just writing something down or taking notes. It also seems to really be meant for writing (without printing) since it doesn't format into A4 papers.
  • Nothing. There are no pros.
  • Came with my new computer, so I didn't have to pay for it. I only needed to occasionally type a letter or a document, and it serves my purpose for that.

Cons

  • It doesn't have all the features of word and most annoying it doesn't show the shortcuts for the features. Still don't know how to increase/decrease the indent without needing to stop typing and click the button.
  • There isn't anything to like about WordPad. Nothing is good so everything is bad. I cannot figure out how to use it so isn't that a con enough. We were conned into getting this feature when there was an updated to Windows 11. Thank you very little!
  • I have been unable to find out how to type an address on an envelope! Doesn't do me a lot of good to type a business letter when I can't type an official looking envelope for it! Needs a source to search for information with "How To" instructions!
