Codepad is a simple to use and powerful code editor, which also has a hex-editor. This ability of the software to be used both as code and hex editor makes it unique and most useful as compared to other code and hex editor software in the market. The Codepad software has the ability to be associated with some types of files that can be opened just by double clicking on them in the explorer window. Furthermore, the software can be integrated to the right context menu for all types of files so that it can be quickly accessed just by right clicking on them and selecting the ‘Codepad’ option. The Codepad software makes use of some special types of files such as .lng, .def, .tpl, .rgb and .cmr. CodePad automatically uses Syntax Definition that can be configured for the file type that is currently in use. Codepad also has the ability to launch executables for current file and capture their output such as viewers and compilers. The other useful features of the software include its ability to the send current file via email and comparison of two files by Differences Viewer. This software is completely free for any use.

CodePad is a text-editor / IDE with a different spin on the concept. Indeed-- the typical features are present: syntax highlighting, code-completion, and project management-- yet I use CodePad frequently for its certain unique, built-in functions-- useful to a new user, or a veteran of coding from a common IDE. So.... go ahead and TRY it. Add a few of your own tweaks (to the CodePad tools, for parsing DIFF with external apps, for example), and you just might find the special, unusual functionality you've sought after.
