Creating Text Files in Looplet
You can create new text files directly in Looplet.
- Click the Create Text File button.
- Enter a descriptive file name.
- Enter the file content. Copy/paste from another place (existing document, email message, website, etc.) or type your content.
- Use the text editor tools to format your content as needed. You can add headings, bold text, italics, hyperlinks, and more.
