Ever thought of tweaking NOTEPAD??

Most of us use Notepad for some or the other purpose…some advanced users may do their stuff in NoteTab Pro,etc.
This l’il tweak will remove the hassles of using the menu(which i found to be very irritating while using Find, Replace, etc). It actually removes the menubar!

OK! Before proceeding, BACKUP YOUR NOTEPAD (Its present in %WINDIR%\Notepad.exe)
After dat delete the notepad.exe file frm dllcache(it’s a folder created by Windows XP creators to store all the inportant system files as backup)
You can find “dllcache” folder in system32 folder(after unhiding the system files)

Now comes the tweakin process

1. Start Resource Hacker
2. Open Notepad in it
3. Expand to Menu>1>1033
4. In the right hand side pane, delete all those stuff and paste this:

1 MENU
LANGUAGE LANG_ENGLISH, SUBLANG_ENGLISH_US
{
MENUITEM “New”, 1
MENUITEM “Open”, 2
MENUITEM “Save”, 3
MENUITEM “Save As…”, 4
MENUITEM “Select All “, 25
MENUITEM “Undo”, 16
MENUITEM “Cut”, 768
MENUITEM “Copy”, 769
MENUITEM “Paste”, 770
MENUITEM “Delete”, 771
MENUITEM “Font”, 33
MENUITEM “Find”, 22
MENUITEM “Find Next”, 22
MENUITEM “Go To”, 24
MENUITEM “Replace”, 23
MENUITEM “Status Bar”, 27
MENUITEM “Wrap”, 32
MENUITEM “Time/&Date”, 26
}
5. Press “Compile Script”.
6.Save it or press Ctrl+S
8. Wait for sometime…Windows will send a error msg kinda thing..jst cancel it..!
9. Run Notepad
10. And dats it! That Menubar is gone and instead every command appears as a button.

My name is Subha. I’m interested in computer science, music and literature. Computers first appeared in my life when I was fifteen. Then I had got my first computer. I remember myself thinking, that it was the best thing in the world. I was playing it whenever I could but some time later, I noticed that I could do a lot more things with the computer, for example programming. So, I have started my graduation in Computer. Later i have decided that I can spread my knowledge among peoples. So, I have started blogging.
