An Alternative Platform for TextPad
Posted: Sat Dec 20, 2014 4:42 am
Troubling news about the future of the Windows operating system is starting to come my way. . . .
Update:
Am now running TextPad 4.7.3 on a Wine virtual desktop on Linux. Have never been happier.
Have absolutely no problem with my having to purchase another TextPad license whenever it becomes necessary to do so, as long as I can continue to choose which version of TextPad to run, and as long as there is a version that works well on a Wine virtual desktop on Linux. Though it is not perfect, 4.7.3 works very well on a Wine virtual desktop. Since TextPad is as flexible as it is, any minor issues with Wine can be VERY EASILY navigated around.
Micros**t, you're fired, in plain, glorious English.
