Yes.  It does have chapters.  I do use them now to find my place.

However, I cannot add my own keywords, but I shall for future use
investigate the other options that were suggested to me.

This may sound off the wall, but what about HJPad?  Hey, it's there
taking up disk space; it has to be good for something, and I've used it
a time or two.  Of course, there's also WordPad.

Does your book have chapter titles.  I got a mark Twain anthology from
Project Gutenberg a while back (I hope to find his whole library, or
something close to it), and I key in titles of individual essays.

One of the options offered by TextPal is to replace Notepad.  windows
decides what program to open based on the file extension.  by
default, if a file has a .txt extension, Notepad opens.  TextPal
gives you the chance to change this so that TextPal opens when you
have a text file.  It's a vastly more powerful program.
