Useful tools
Notepad++
Notepad++ is a free editor.
You can download it from https://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/.
The standard Windows editor (Notepad) has problems if a file was originally generated in Linux: It cannot cope with the line endings in such files. If you try to open a Fesslix parameter file that was generated in Linux with Notepad, you will only see a mess.
Therefore, we recommend to work with Notepad++ instead.
