Editra

Editra is a word processing program which supplies programmers and web developers with tools for writing code in a user-friendly interface.

After a quick and uneventful installation procedure, you can check out the standard window with the familiar layout, representing Editra's GUI. The tool supports multiple tabs, so you can work on more than one project at the same time.

You can edit lines (e.g. cut, delete, duplicate, insert before or after a line), toggle bookmarks, enable word completion mode, use a search function when dealing with large amounts of data and replace text, as well as zoom in and out.

You can highlight the background of the current line, show indentation guides and white space, save the current window layout, toggle all folds, go to a line number, change font settings, enable word wrap, disable syntax highlighting, and customize menu items, among others.

From the Preferences panel you can select the editor and printer mode for the startup, switch to a different language for the UI, enable automatic file backups, choose the encoding method, customize the icons, layout, transparency and display font, set proxy properties, and so on.

Editra runs on a moderate-to-high quantity of CPU and system memory, has a good response time to key strokes and mouse commands, and works smoothly. We have not encountered any issues in our tests, since the app did not hang, crash or pop up error dialogs. Editra comprises a wide range of options for helping developers read and write code.
