alt_f13 Posted March 12, 2004 Share Posted March 12, 2004 Hey, I'm looking for a freeware notepad where all it does besides the normal "Notepad.exe" functions is highlight strings ie, stuff in between quotation marks. It would be ever so super-nifty if one of you blokes would point me in the right direction so as to allow me to continue working on my project. It's a Sonique 2 skin. Sonique 2 is rad, but it crashes my computer so I have a hard time figuring out if its my skins code that's messing it up or if its just my flaky computer running at 2% resources while sonique is open. No joke. 2%. The notepad would help a lot. Anyhoo, that would be fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSX Posted March 12, 2004 Share Posted March 12, 2004 You could use Quincy 2002. It's intended to create programs in C & C++, but of course, it's just a text editor and you can save as .txt files. Here's my CompSci teacher's page: You can find links there, as well as instructions. http://members.rogers.com/cps125/toolchest.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest adsta Posted March 12, 2004 Share Posted March 12, 2004 I use crimson editor as a notepad substitute. It supports heaps of languages, and I personally think it's got a nice interface. http://www.crimsoneditor.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sayonara Posted March 12, 2004 Share Posted March 12, 2004 That looks funky - will play later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mooeypoo Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 I work with CodeGenie, it's AWSOME and it also recognizes different scripts so it can light script-specific words like "while", "do" and such. It's awsome, and its simple. http://www.code-genie.com/cgenie.html that's the official homepage, check it out. ~moo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atinymonkey Posted March 14, 2004 Share Posted March 14, 2004 I like the gif for bloatware http://www.code-genie.com/imgs/keep_it_simple.gif But don't have much use for the code manipulation. Oracle sql is the only code I use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest daeojkim Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 Try EditPlus2 Pretty neat simple text editor. You can use it for writing programs (Perl, C/C++, Java) and it can handle 1 GB text file. Pretty amazing. Try to open 1GB txt file in word or wordpad... Whoa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 emacs is cool. I guess the version you're using is the equivalent of xemacs, since emacs is originally a text editor that runs under linux on a console. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biggles Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 emacs is cool. I guess the version you're using is the equivalent of xemacs, since emacs is originally a text editor that runs under linux on a console. Xemacs is a fork of emacs, not a graphical version of emacs. Emacs can be built with a complete graphical user interface too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 I stand corrected. (I don't use it myself) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
