This repo is an attempt to maintain the WordPad source code and keep it useful and relevant.
To compile, you'll need Visual C++ 2005 or newer. Make sure you have MFC support installed. Compile by running NMAKE (or YMAKE for parallel compilation.)
Please keep contributions in the style and spirit of the existing code, and ensure changes build on Visual C++ 2005 or newer.
This code is available under the same license as the sample code, MIT + All rights reserved.
The WordPad source code has been included as a sample in compilers since 1995 under restrictive terms. These samples are now available under the MIT license, including the version bundled with Visual C++ 2008 and 2010. This source is a fork of the most recent code from the 2010 compiler.
- Add MIT license to compiled binaries, which is required by the license
- Compile only for Unicode
- Uses RichEdit 2.0 rather than 1.0
