    Personally I don’t use Notepad for writing writing. Its a functional writing app. A app for copying and pasting code, or making a list, or crude ascii art. If I need to bold something, or do text formatting, thats when I open up the several orders of magnitude larger office apps.

      That’s another issue, but I agree. I was just addressing the idea that this is what people need to help them be better writers.

      All this will do is to teach them how to better write specific sentences. If they even read the suggestion before using it.
