Text Editor will save your drafts automatically in case you lose power or any other sort of crash.
They'll be right there the next time you start-up Text Editor.
Text Editor supports more than 150 programming language syntaxes out-of-the-box.
You can even create your own language or your own color-scheme!
Text Editor will try to determine the best settings for your document automatically!
Got special needs? Just drop-in a .editorconfig file and let Text Editor do the rest!
Not enough? Those old-school vim, emacs, and kate mode-lines are also supported.
Sometimes you need a good overview of what's in a file.
Use the integrated overview map to quickly scroll through large documents.
If you run into issues, file an issue and we'll take a look!
