Papel Description
When it comes to quickly typing something on our computers, probably the first choice would be to open Notepad. But as fast and lightweight as Notepad might be, it is actually fairly limited in terms of text formatting and, not to mention, note-taking capabilities.
Text editor with note-taking capabilities and a simplistic interface
An interesting replacement for Notepad might be Papel, a simplistic and easy to use piece of software that aims to provide you with a suitable balance between a not too complicated text editor and a note-taking app.
Subsequent to its installation and upon first launching the app, you are met by an overly-simplistic main window with no menus and no toolbars on display. This said, the first thing you should be aware of is the fact that most of Papel’s functions are available via the right-click contextual menu.
Packs a surprising amount of text editing features
Despite its modest looks, the utility comes with a fairly interesting set of text editing features. As is the case with most other apps of this sort, Papel comes with features like line wrapping, multiple undo and redo actions, support for both text and RTF documents and a very useful search and replace function.
Papel probably most obvious advantage is the fact that it comes with a tabbed interface, which means you can always keep multiple text documents opened within a single window. This might make the app seem like a simplistic alternative to clipboard managers.
Also useful are Papel’s other features, namely drag and drop editing, indent and outdent blocking, font and paragraph formatting or line spacing. It also comes with support for paragraph alignment and bullet and number lists.
Interesting alternative for Notepad
To conclude, Papel is a streamlined and easy to use application that packs more features than you would be originally tempted to believe.
Either way you decide to look at it, as a simple text editor or a note-taking app, Papel might just be perfectly suited for you if you believe in the saying ‘less is more’.
