Free eBook: Lewis Caroll's Alice in Wonderland, converted from a Project 
Gutenberg text by MieNet ('The Cozy Portal'), http://www.mienet.net.
You can download the .html or .hjt version of "Alice in Wonderland" from 
http://www.treepad.com/#ebook
Both versions are created using TreePad PLUS.

TreePad Freeware now comes in two versions: TreePad Lite and TreePad Asia. 
Both programs are freeware and almost identical. One difference is that 
'TreePad Asia' is optimized for non-western fonts. Using 'menu/language 
mode' in TreePad Asia, one can select different character modes (IME), like 
Hiragana, Katakana. TreePad Lite does not have this feature. On the other 
hand, TreePad Asia misses the 'menu/edit/search replace' function.

New features, compared to previous versions:
Added: menu/view/on top, to keep TreePad Lite/Asia on top of all other 
applications
Added: menu shortcut to the manual, menu/help/manual, or F1
Improved: new toolbar icons (tree edit toolbar, tree expand and collapse 
icons), created by Barry Andrews
Added: key combination alt-down and alt-up navigates to next sibling 
(skipping any visible child nodes on deeper levels)
added: new navigate menu and new navigate toolbar
Added: tree navigation functions (Go up, Go down, Go left, Go right)
Added: tree explode (expand) function which expands the selected sub tree. 
Using the explode button while holding shift, expands only the first level
Added: tree implode (collapse) function, which collapses the selected sub 
tree. Using the implode button while holding shift, collapses only the 
first level
Added: follow hyperlink menu item and toolbar button
Added: article and tree search buttons
Added: shortcut keys for tree search (shift+F11) and article search (shift+F12)
Note: the ctrl-F keyboard shortcut is still valid for activating article 
and tree search.
Updated: new buttons in the edit toolbar

TreePad ASIA, brief note on possible problems: the tree part in TreePad 
ASIA might not display non-western characters on all Asian Windows 
installations. We will try to fix the problem as soon as possible. Any 
assistance in this matter from our Asian users is welcome! In case you 
experience this problem, and still want to enter non-western characters 
into the tree area, you are advised to use TreePad 2.6.9 for the time 
being. It can be downloaded from: http://www.treepad.com/download.
