Hello,

I remember a while back seeing this free portable rich text editor (just one single exe) floating around. I believe it might have been BauerApps (RightNote developer) behind it and they had it available as freeware on their site but I can't find it anymore. I find it was extremely fast and had pretty advanced table formatting. Does anyone still have it?

I don't remember Bauerapps offering anything but Rightnote and Compare Advance. I even checked their web page back to '07 with WayBackMachine.

Could you maybe be thinking of Qjot? It's no longer developed but is extremely good for what it is - a portable RTE. Originally an xtort project, they no longer host downloads, but you can find it at Downloads.com http://download.cnet.com/QJot/3000-2079_4-10434538.html or Major Geeks http://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/qjot.html . I use it quite often.

There's also Q10 which is a distraction-free single-executable RTE: http://www.baara.com/q10/ Not sure on table support.

Then, there is Atlantis. It's portable version is very lightweight and has table support, but it's not free. http://www.atlantiswordprocessor.com/en/

Hope the above is of some help - if maybe only to trigger a memory on the software you're looking for. Good luck!

What about this one?

It is unlikely that you're thinking of Jarte, but just in case I'll toss it out there:

http://www.jarte.com

Jarte is an interesting, feature rich word processor with a free edition, as well as a portable edition.

Probably it was this one? http://trichview.com/download/demo.html

Tomahawk pdf+

no longer under development, but feature complete anyway. You can still download it here:

http://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/tomahawk_pdf.html

standalone
single exe
opens rtf, html, xls and most kinds of text based formats
pretty advanced table features
runs on win 64

Don't mind the "pdf". In fact it's a rtf editor with some pdf conversion/extraction features.

best regards

You're da man! Thank you very much Jon. It's hidden on their site and I've tried everything to track it down without any luck. I will make sure to back it up for the future.
For those who haven't tried it, I think it's the best portable rich text editor out there. Make sure to check it out. It's based on RichViewActions from http://www.trichview.com/

Even though Jon Polish got the final answer this one is also another keeper. I have used Tomahawk pdf+ in the past with great results.

Thanks everyone for your valuable input. You've been a big help as always!

It also installs as part of RightNote.

There's TED, but I think it only runs on Linux. https://www.nllgg.nl/Ted/
