Hi Scott:

SL>  BK> not even come with a functional editor.
SL>

SL> you want more functionality you'll be pushing into the 
SL> domain of a word processor

   Back to square Zero.  Notepad and Wordpad are SHIT!  I may as
well use 'copy con'.  Don't you wonder why they both have 'pad'
in their name?  It derives from sanitary pad.

   When I was away last fall, I tried to edit some <PRE> tags on
WWW pages from an Internet Cafe in Cyprus.  Notepad crapped up
the formatting, Wordpad crapped up the formatting, and Word only
opened up in some crap HTML GUI thing that was totally useless.

   Somehow you still don't realise what a word processor does.
Just for you, I thought of a good demarkation, and a major
difference is an editor cannot load or embed images.
