I have one. It's called TextView and I wrote it to figure out how to figure out
which files were double-clicked on.

TextView currently does not page, making it very annoying with large text files
(it wasn't a project in itself, although I think there is enough interest to
warrant me finishing it up once the first LHG beta is ready -- a few days, OK,
unknown?).
