My productivity app is a never-ending .txt file (2020)

With notepad.exe:

At the first line of the a .txt file put .LOG This will then put a timestamp at the end of the file every time you open it.

Also, if you press the F5 key it inserts a timestamp.

Been using this for years and it's pretty much all I ever needed.

These are incredible! Learn something new every day, thank you for sharing.

Thank you throwaway613745!

Huh, TIL.

That's cool. I just tested it out and noticed notepad.exe has become a markdown editor/viewer too.

Not sure if that's a good or bad thing.
