Thing been around forever. You can even find old versions for DOS, OS/2 and Win3x at that site. Not the easiest thing to use...

You may have noticed this in my Raspberry Pi screenshot, it makes me miss Irfanview a little less on Linux. There's a Windows version too, if the MP (multi-platform) version runs a bit flaky on Windows, check under "Products" on the site and get the 'Classic' version. Oh yeah, I think it was version 1.50 that works on Windows 3.x.

The more I learn to use this on the Linux box, the more I am grateful that Pierre Gougelet makes it available. This thing fills in some gaps and does some things better than various proggies and command-line utilities do.

Took me a few to realize I needed to find the 'things' that I was being told to find rather than just selecting myself and matching....

Huhuhu,

I was looking for something similar to Microsoft Edit for DOS, but to run on Linux.

Very nice! Have you seen what they've done to notepad in Windows 11? I watched YouTube vids... my God, the horror. Why can't they just LEAVE IT THE FUCK ALONE? There was wordpad already, they could done that stuff to wordpad and kept notepad untouched but they removed wordpad and fucking up notepad. Disgusting.

[Steven W]

Heh. I almost appreciate the 'tabs' on it, but if you close the last tab, the whole fucking thing closes

You don't know how many times I've been left seething.
