    *open an empty notepad file
    *type "bush hid the facts" (without the quotes)
    *save it as what ever you want.
    *close it and re-open it

    this may sound stupid, but everytime i do this, i get like squares,
    but if you change it to "bush hid tha facts" or something like that, the text shows normaly
    :eek:

    oh, I found it out,
    but its not an easter egg lol
    its just a bug.
    its because many times you put a string with 4-3-3-4,
    the ASCII code is:
    62 75 73 68 20 68 69 64 20 74 68 65 20 66 61 63 74 73

    when note pad saves those kinds of files they are correctly saved, is just that when it reopens them he dont properly read them. and ass it doesnt know its is saved with ASCII, it opens it with the default encoding (UNICODE)

    ascii characters:
    62 75 73 68 20 68 69 64 20 74 68 65 20 66 61 63 74 73
    those 18 are confused by notepad for
    7562 6873 6820 6964 7420 6568 6620 6163 7473,
    8 Unicode codes
    and each of those codes is equivalent to a chinese symbol.
    so if you have no chinese typographic fonts installed, youll get only squares

    I checked it on vista, and the bug is fixed ;)

    Open up Microsoft Word
    Type NYC is 72 point font
    Change font to Webdings
    (This will work if you have the font)
    NYC
    Cool
    Now Change to WingDings
    NYC
