Convert to lower/upper/title/sentence case
Cut, copy, and paste
File type association tool
File drag & drop
Help file
Jump to line/character
Keyboard macros (unlimited in size and number)
Normalize spaces
Print and Print Preview (user can adjust margins, font, page numbering).
Recent file history
Search and replace, including case-insensitive, whole-word, and wildcard searches.
Selectable character set
Skinnable user interface
Spell checking
Statistics on characters, words, lines, and paragraphs
Text drag & drop
Toolbar, Status Bar
Trim trailing spaces from lines
Variable-pitch fonts support
Word wrap

I have to say, while it is fully loaded with featues, some of the themes are childish and makes feel like the DOS of 1990s. Download DocPad here
