Thanks but as a windows user I prefer any other editor. My favorite is notepad++

I usually have a half dozen windows of Sublime Text open, but I still occasionally launch Notepad to hold some temporary throwaway text, even though there's no need to.

For some reason I just like having something different open for that "scratch data" that also is visibly differentiated in my taskbar.

same here, even with my light emacs running I still have the reflex to Win+R notepad RET and paste..

then I run M-x doctor to talk about it because I'm conflicted
