NOTEPAD TRICKS

World Trade Centre Trick

Did you know that the flight number of the plane that had hit WTC ...on
9/11 was Q33N ....
Open your Notepad in ur computer and type the flight
number i.e Q33N...
Increase the Font Size to 72, Change the Font to Wingdings. U will be amazed by the findings
.


Simple Trick

=>Open Notepad
=> Enter four words separated by spaces, wherein the first word has 4 letters, the next two have three letters, and the last word has five letters
=> Save the file.
=>Close Notepad.
=>Reopen Notepad.





Reason:

The reason this happens:

In notepad, any other 4-3-3-5 letter word combo will have the same results.
It is all to do with a limitation in Windows. Text files containing Unicode UTF-16-encoded Unicode are supposed to start with a "Byte-Order Mark" (BOM), which is a two-byte flag that tells a reader how the following UTF-16 data is encoded.

1) You are saving to 8-bit Extended ASCII.
2) You are reading from 16-bit UNICODE .
This is why the 18 8-bit characters are being displayed as 9 (not supported by your codepage) 16-bit UNICODE characters

N-JOY.
