Micro Project Report ‘ Notepad Clone ’

 ➢ Abstract:
This application is a text editor in JAVA. This text editor developed in a JAVA
platform replication of the word editors we all are familiar with and which we
use quite often on daily basis. The only difference being that, this editor has been
created using JAVA for the front-end interface. The text edited in the editor is
stored in the desired location.
Friendly easy to use interface – This notepad editor is easy to use, just like any
other text editor (MS Word, Notepad etc)

➢ Aims/Benefits of the Micro Project:
