The question was "Could you _just_ use Notepad?" My answer was no
because FTP is almost always required and the answer would have been
the same if the OP had suggested any other editor that did not include
FTP. I did not attempt to dissuade the OP from using Notepad. I just
reminded him that the usual minimum requirement for setting up a web
page was a text editor _and_ an FTP client.
