Ivan Ivković Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 I don't need a debugger, and I don't need anything large such as Eclipse or Notepad++ (although I like Eclipse) because I need something very light. Something like ConText, but I had troubles with encoding in ConTexT. Maybe it's just a problem of me not knowing how to use ConTexT properly. It can't read UTF8 without BOM.

kicken Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 There is a thread with a list of editors in the Miscellaneous forum, you could check it out for suggestions. I personally have been using Edit+ for years and am very happy with it. Brief feature list (that I personally use and like): - Syntax highlighting for several languages - Lightweight without a lot of useless features - Good UTF-8 support - FTP/SFTP built in - Hex editor built in - Brace matching - multi-document - Regex find/replace - Find in files (searches all files in a dir for a string/regex) - Split windows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trq Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 kicken:the problem with this is that it doesn't support auto complete application. Auto completion just gets in the way IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alvin567 Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 how is it that autocomplete get into your way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kicken Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 I find most of the time either it does not auto-complete correctly or not in a manner that I like. The only type of auto-complete I like is one that is an auto-suggest and will let you tab to complete (Visual studio does this). Pretty much every other editor I've used, disabling auto complete is one of the first things I do as it tends to be more frustrating than it is helpful. For what it's worth, Edit+ does support auto complete (read the features on the site). I didn't put it on my list because I don't use it.
