Recommended Free Software

I use these all the time:


EditPad

Go to JGsoft for EditPad

EditPad Lite is a good replacement for Windows Notepad, written by a Belgian lad called Jan Goyvaerts. It's postcard-ware.Go to JGsoft for EditPad


Reptile

Get Reptile things from Sausage! Get the Reptile Tiling utility and the very wonderful Reptile screen-saver from Sausage Software. They are free, but you have to register by e-mail. This background was generated by Reptile.

KeyNote

There is no such thing as the perfect text organizer/brainstormer, but Keynote is pretty good. It's a free and easy to use database program, a powerful information organizer, PIM and outline text editor. It is ideal for storing notes, emails, URLs. It features extended search, edit, export and import options. It's written by Marek Jedlinski.

WordWeb

WWebicon.jpg (3038 bytes) The pay-for version of this excellent dictionary/thesaurus allows you to do wildcard searches (good for crosswords) and anagrams, but the free version is a very useful Windows tray application that works with all editors.

IrfanView

Get IrfanView here! IrfanView is written by Bosnian student Irfan Skiljian who lives in Austria.
It can display almost any kind of graphic file, including movies and .wav sounds. There are plugins for Flash, MP3 and more. A directory of graphic files can be browsed as a page of thumbnails or played as a slide-show. This excellent program is free for home use.
