notepad bug

[function8]

..i saw this over at shoutwire and thought it was really weird...check it out:

 

1.) Open an empty notepad file

2.) Type "Bush hid the facts" (without the quotes)

3.) Save it as whatever you want.

4.) Close it, and re-open it.

 

.....weird stuff

Thats funny...

 

It does the same thing if you type in "this app can break", without quotes of course.

The Bush one "works" in Vista, but not the other one mentioned, so I guss MS half-way fixed it, LOL.

That is quite interesting, gotta show my friends.

Ok, what’s the significance of that, other than getting nine little squares instead of “Bush hid the facts”? :confused:

[yfital]

well, its an easter egg, and we are bored. that is great stuff for us

[Burky]

Neat.

Is there an explaination why it works? (other than "it's a programming error")

It's microsoft?

[wingspar]

It works? It works doing what? Is this a programers inside thing or something? I wold venture to say it’s useless and meaningless to most who read this.

It also works if you type "Bush the hid facts".

 

So I guess there's really no hidden message afterall.

there's no significance other than it's a funny little easter egg

I suppose if you don't find it funny then you don't find it funny but momma and I got a kick out of it

 

just like the whole googling of WMD's was funny
