Ctrl+Shift+O: Open selected text within the notepad
• Unsaved changes indicator
A red dot will be displayed in the toolbar icon whilst changes are waiting to be saved

The notepad extends to 7,000 bytes, which is enough for 7,000 letters from the Latin alphabet but fewer if you use Korean, Cyrillic or other such characters. You will be notified if the notepad is too large, but excess characters will not be saved
