Darwin:
I used irfan viewer with all the plugins

as for the V-file viewer, does it really do what I say or I cant make it work?

what it does is to view the files inside a folder NOT to view the text of the files

I said I was "pretty sure" V - File Viewer would work for you, didn' offer certainty, and can't as I don't have it installed.

In DOpus, go into Settings - Preferences - Plugins - Viewers and uncheck "SourceCodeEditor" - now you're just viewing txt files rather than editing them...

Dirhael:
Well, you could also use Total Commander, Speedcommander or Xyplorer to do it if Dopus isn't to your liking...or even Far Manager should you prefer it. I've attached a screen of each :)

Perry Mowbray:
as for the irfanview you can see the above post of their forum

Ah well, like it was adequately explained in the other forum, IrfanView relies on the file extension and .ini or .log or .anythingelse is not the same as .txt (though they all may be text files)

I'm sure irfanview can load text files too because I've used it myself. But you might have to download the plugin pack

I'm pretty sure it isn't a plug-in (I can't see it in the list anyway), I think it's part of the main programme.

ZTreeWin (http://www.ztree.com) in Autoview mode can do same:

TextView does what I said above for dopus, plus it doesnt let me view the file with single click, it needs double clicking (shrug)

Configurable.   I'm running version 6.0.12.  View / Options / General tab, check "Allow only single mouse-click to open objects"  voila.

 :Thmbsup: TextView http://www.flos-freeware.ch is what you want if you want to select which text files to view, select text from a file, edit a file if needed, file management, etc.
 :-\ Irifanview http://www.irfanview.net/ works well for viewing one file after another, without the need/ability to select the file from a list - space bar moves to the next file, backspace moves to the previous, etc.

Both tools are HIGHLY recommended
