TextOn

TextOn is a cool tool that has really changed how we handle documents. Over the years, technology has advanced so much that now, with just a few clicks, you can have your text read out loud. This means you can focus on other important tasks while TextOn does the reading for you!

Easy to Use Without Installation

The best part? You don’t need to install anything! That means less hassle and more time for what matters. You can even stick it on a thumb drive, making it super portable. So whether you're at home or using someone else's computer, TextOn is right there with you without messing up any registry settings.

Your Writing Space

The main feature of TextOn is its text pad where you can jot down your thoughts and tasks easily. But here’s a little downside: there aren’t any fancy tools to count words or characters, and no line numbering for coding either. If you're looking for rulers to help align your paragraphs, those are missing too.

Supported Formats and Multiple Instances

You can work with text documents in formats like TXT and RTF, plus its unique TOF format. While there's no tab support, you can open several instances of the app at once. This makes it easier to juggle multiple projects without losing your flow! Importing and exporting files works smoothly across those formats.

Edit Options Are Basic but Functional

Edit features are pretty basic—think copy, cut, paste, undo, and redo options only. There’s no built-in search function which might be a bummer if you're looking for something specific in your document. However, you do get some control over font types and colors!

A Built-in Text to Speech Feature

A highlight of TextOn is its built-in text-to-speech option! You can't save or export the audio layer yet; however, it does let you listen to everything being read aloud with just one button press!

The Bottom Line on TextOn

In summary, while TextOn still has room to grow before it ranks among the top editing tools out there—especially for plain or rich text files—it’s definitely worth trying out! Its portability and ability to edit multiple documents at once could be just what you need.
