metapad
Also just found out about metapad. It is also like notepad and is just the one file. Really notepad and metapad can be run from a floppy or anywhere on your PC. But your want notepad to be in the C:WINDOWS folder on Windows 98 so other program can find it that use it for temp file etc.

There are two versons so read the FAQ about them.

Great find and I like it.

Yea it is also free.

Found out from reading there and I tried it in metapad and note pad and it works.
.LOG files

Q: Is the feature of creating a log file that appends the date and time, a capability in the original Windows Notepad, still available?

A: Yes. Here's How you do it:

1. On the first line of the text file, type the following at the left margin: ".LOG" (in capitals, and without the quotes)
2. Save the document.

Note: Every time you open this document, metapad will append the current time and date, as specified by your computer's clock in the short date format (see previous question), to the end of it.
