About Vikon
====================
Vikon (formerly known as Textpad) is a lightweight, handy and useful text editor which allows you to create, open, and save files using both the Rich Text Format and the Plain Text Format. Vikon has all the features of an advanced text editor. The fact is, Vikon was inspired by many text editors including ConTEXT, Notepad++, Kate and GoldenPad. 
The interface of the program is familiar and easy to work with. So, you can use some basic functions, such as cut, copy and paste, etc.

You can also change the font name, size and emphasis, insert the current date and time, as well as use a search and replace tool. You may also change the Text & Background color.
Additionally, you can enable word wrapping and display the status bar, toolbar, undo and redo your actions.

Vikon also includes a small source code editor, customized for six programming languages. These languages are: C#, VB, HTML, SQL, PHP and Java. In addition, you can Create, Open, Save files. And you can also create multiple tabs to fit your needs. 

====================
IMPORTANT NOTE
====================
Vikon is back as one piece. Vikon TXT and Vikon RTF no longer exist. You can easily swap the file formats from your menu bar; "File" -> "File Format" and choose the desired file format.
