Description
Text File Editor is a versatile Windows application for editing text files, scripts, Markdown documents, and more. It combines a simple and easy-to-use interface with a surprisingly wide range of powerful editing and formatting features. ANSI and UTF-8 support, Markdown preview and printing, text cleanup, word counting, and full-screen mode make it suitable for many different tasks. A selection of interface designs, including retro-inspired themes, gives the editor its own distinctive character.
