Paid version mainly adds lotsa poweruser options, not essential, but looks very useful, right ;D 1) Remembers up to 9999 undo/redo operations 2) Control over the End-Of-Line characters (Apple, Unix and Windows tend to handle different End-Of-Line differently when doing plain text editing) 3) Allows user to specify buffer size 4) Allows custom fonts and background images 5) Allows user to customize 6 extra Themes in addition to the built-in 3 Themes. 6) Allows toggling of word wrap 7) Continuous Text to Speech in paid version.

And allows text justification along both left and right - Shelf system that works like a sortable Task list. - Save/autosave and auto bookmark/backup features works in the background so your changes are never lost, but neither are you forced to irrevocably save changes you still feel ambiguous about. - Undo/Redo, Search(with full *wildcards* functionality! :D) and Replace, GoTo. - Themes! Customizable display, fonts, and colors for both paid and free versions.

If you are upgrading, you should save the files you are editing with NTW first.
Startup Crashes If NTW crashes after you update your firmware to ICS, this is due to directory restructuring by ICS, thus clashing with NTW's own log data. Simply delete the /.NeedToWrite folder to fix this. If you encounter any other startup crashes, either switch to a smaller( Text to speech for SVOX classic will only work if you enable both the SVOX Classic engine under your phone's TTS settings, as well as enable Language Override inside SVOX Classic TTS settings. TTS with SVOX is buggy for IceCream Sandwich, users are advised to use Google's own built in TTS engine.

Important! 2013-02-20 I just encountered this sudden bug on my SGS3. Cut and Copy buttons will crash my phone everytime in any version of NTW Lite or Pro.
So after some digging, I found that there is a bug in how certain phone models especially Samsung's implements the clipboard.
The temporary solution is either a factory reset, or to do this: 1. boot into recovery > advanced > wipe cache 2. reboot phone > ES Explorer (enable root mode)> delete /data/clipbord/* 3. reboot recovery again > advanced > fix permissions 4. reboot phone > it's fine again, but until Samsung fixes their firmware, the same problem will eventually recur for apps that implement their own cut/copy/paste buttons.
Don't hesitate to email me if you still have problems.
Recent changes: v1.91 - Introduced dedicated menu buttons in the toolbar and file browser. Long pressing "New" or "Browse" will also trigger a menu popup. - Minor bug fixes

Amazing Really doesn't have any size limit I opened a xml file that has more than 1mb size with this great editor and it works perfectly

Unlimited text is joke! (Fixed) Have been using it as diary of 16kB pure text file now. Editor stopped displaying at specific line. Emailed developer and no response! Other editor handles editing easily without any problem. Paid version doing the same. Update: Gmail never sent my message. Broken line at the end fixed by moving to Next (shows when you scroll the toolbar) and back to Prev.

Disappointed not with the app. I'm disappointed that there are so few people supporting the developer of this excellent app by getting the pro version. Shame on you Joel. Down rating just because you won't get the pro version? tsk tsk!

When viewing an HTML file, theres an option at the top right hand to view as HTML or TXT. Can we have an option to save as TXT(plain text) when viewing in TXT mode?

Not Working for Me... I want to be able to download files from my Website, edit them on my phone and upload them. However, when I use NTW Lite, modify the file in HTML mode and upload it, the text of the file disappears. Have I mis-set something? This text editor looks like an excellent solution (trying to edit using Emacs from the Android didn't work at all), so I hope it can work! I would be happy to upgrade, but I want to see that it works before I do.
★★☆☆☆
On the plus side, does load large files (200mb) unlike anything else I've found on Android. But it only loads one tiny chunk at a time, and there's no way (besides clicking next chunk manually) to search/replace the whole file. For my 200mb file it looks like there's about 10 thousand chunks 😬

Mnu } Help ring } Close } Mnu } Help ring } and it crashes out.~ on LifeTab.1.
