Hanword Document

| Description | 🔵 This document was created using Hanword, previously known as Hangul Word Processor. This hangul-based text editor is designed primarily for documents in Korean. It is not surprising that Hanword has gained huge popularity and has become one of the main working tools in South Korea. Functionally, it includes familiar tools for working with text, page layout, and simple graphics, making it comparable to other modern text editors. |
| Technical details | 🔵 Updates to newer versions of the HWP file format, together with changes in Microsoft’s software, have resulted in compatibility problems when opening HWP files in Microsoft applications. Despite the fact that the program OpenOffice.org capable of processing documents created in older versions such as Hangul 97, it is often not possible to properly open files created in later versions. As a result, users sometimes post documents that recipients cannot access, although these files can still be converted using an online document conversion service. |

Raw text file
| Extension | .txt |
| Category | 🔵 documents |
| Programs | 🔵 Notepad 🔵 TextEdit 🔵 WordPad |
| Description | 🔵 Think of .txt (Plain Text) as the digital world’s 'ground zero.' It’s the most stripped-back way to store data—no headers, no embedded styles, just the characters themselves. While formats like .docx or .pdf carry a ton of structural baggage, .txt is essentially weightless. That’s why it’s the universal fallback; if a device has a screen and a processor, it can almost certainly read a text file. |
| Technical details | 🔵 Technically, calling a .txt file 'simple' is a bit of a half-truth. The real complexity lies in the encoding. In a modern workflow, you’re usually looking at UTF-8, but legacy systems still kick around ASCII or UTF-16. Since a .txt file doesn’t actually announce its own encoding type, you’ll still occasionally hit that 'encoding mismatch' wall where symbols turn into gibberish. Then there’s the infamous Line Break issue. It’s a classic developer headache: Windows insists on CRLF (Carriage Return + Line Feed), while the Linux and Mac worlds stick to a simple LF. It’s a tiny invisible difference that can still wreck a config file if you’re moving it between servers. Because there’s no room for metadata (like 'Author' or 'Date Created') or fancy formatting, these files are incredibly lean. This makes them the 'gold standard' for everything from quick notes and READMEs to complex source code and JSON payloads. They are inherently safer than most formats because they don't execute anything—they just sit there as raw data. In an era of bloated software, the .txt format’s refusal to be anything more than it is remains its biggest competitive advantage. |
