Notepad is very bad for Java programming because most extant versions
don't handle Unicode and they don't like cross-platform line endings.
Notepad has supported Unicode since at least Windows XP from 2002.
There are no such a thing as cross-platform line endings.
It is true that notepad only supports the Windows CR LF, which
means that it does not work when text files are moved as binary
files from *nix.
But instead of blaming notepad then people should transfer the
files correctly.
Rubbish. Should they unpack every jar they move across and see if it has
text files in, so they can convert them? Should they then have to
magically re-sign any sealed packages whose contents have changed?
Given that notepad does not support editing of text files
inside jar files, then there are absolutely no point in
that nor any relevance for the discussion.
