Multi-Edit is a programming editor for advanced users. Multi-Edit will expect you to know HTML, Javascript and Perl, but there is a "Manage Common Code" button that will give you more options for HTML. It doesn't think you need a Tips window or prerecorded Javascripts. Instead, it concentrates on giving you shortcuts. It lets you record Macros, search for files, and change the way it tiles your documents.

This program gives you six ways to move between windows. There are four different ways to tile your windows, there's a button to move between them, or you can choose the tab for your window. Multi-Edit expects you to have more than one document open at a time!

Multi-Edit also lets you search for specific tags, change your tag capitalization, and a bunch of other stuff with tags. You can also go to a specific line number in your code, which is helpful when your HTML validator tells you there's an error.

There's form support, table support, customizable colors, and you can insert tags around highlighted text. There is also a "Format HTML" option which works a lot like Arachnophilia's "Beautify" feature, but without the HTML validation function.

Full support for: SQL, PL/SQL, TCL, REBOL, COLDFUSION, PYTHON, VHDL, Verilog, C#, Matlab, Scilab, Progress, AutoLisp, HTMLScript.
