Hard disagree, it's fantastic for dumping log info/code snippets into and stripping formatting off strings.

I use notepad just about every day to dump some kind of information temporarily as to not cause a massive formatting fuck up in word or excel or whatever.

Ctrl + Shift + V strips all formatting and just copies it in as plain text

Wouldn't any text editor with a delinter be superior

Not every company allows uncontrolled software. Sometimes you have to live with the hammer you were given.

I don't know any software company that would not allow their users to have an IDE
