Notepad is Windoze on IBM PC.  It works in a windowing
environment but is only a very simple text editor without
fonts -- everything is shown typewriter style.  If you 
have any sort of decent windowing environment (Win, Mac or
X-Windows) you should be able to copy-and=paste from the
newsreader window into a simple editor window. Shouldn't you?

OTOH if you work in a keyboard-only environment, then surely
you can just save stuff into a file from the newsreader and
open it in a simple text editor which should show it typewriter style.
