I once wrote C# code in MS Word because the only other option was Notepad.
You made the wrong choice.
It was school work. All I needed was some proper visual indentations and a monospaced font.
Right, so Notepad.
The indentations in Word won't be "proper;" they're based on physical dimensions, not characters.
Like I said, all I needed was visual indentation. C# doesn't have significant whitespaces. As long as you account for all of the braces and semicolons, you could write an entire program in a single line.
Right.
In Notepad.
I was there, Gandalf, 3000 years ago, writing my first html code in notepad. And I was happy about that.
ASP and PHP, too.
I wrote some code with
edonce. It had a nice, calm insanity to it.I honestly don't understand how notepad is a worse alternative to word.
Word is great for formatting documents but not code.
You're not alone
