Texts

Texts is a lightweight text editor that comes packed with basic functions for helping you type text messages in a clean working environment.

The program gives you the possibility to undo or redo your actions, perform basic editing operations (cut, copy, paste), manage paragraphs (indent or unindent), as well as select the writing direction (left to right or right to left).

You can perform search operations, embed hyperlinks, footnotes, tables, and images with PNG or JPG file format, attach headings, bulleted or numbered items, and notes, and color the selected text with different preset colors.

What’s more, you can print or save the written text to TEXT, HTML, TeX, or MD file format, import data from HTML or TeX files, as well as export the information to DOC, RTF, PDF, EPUB, or other file format, provided that you have installed the conversion utility, Pandoc.

Other notable characteristics worth mentioning are represented by the possibility to insert or delete rows and columns, switch to a full screen mode for a better focus on your work, set the font size, make the program display the number of characters and words, use hotkeys, as well as change the layout of the utility by selecting from different themes.

During our testing we have noticed that Texts carries out a task quickly and without errors. It doesn’t eat up a lot of CPU and memory, so the overall performance of the computer is not affected.

To sum things up, Texts offers a simple software solution when it comes to helping you create or edit documents. It cannot compete with other powerful applications on the market, as it lacks support for advanced functions. Plus, it needs some improvements in the GUI area to make the entire process more intuitive.
