I was looking for a free source code editor which had some good features like syntax highlighting, configuring styles and so on. This is the best one which i found.
It has the following features:
- Supported languages : C, C++,Java, C#, XML, HTML, PHP, CSS, makefile, ASCII, art (.nfo), doxygen, ini file, batch file, Javascript, ASP, VB/VBS, SQL, Objective-C, RC resource file, Pascal, Perl, Python, Lua, TeX, TCL Assembler, Ruby Lisp, Scheme, Properties, Diff, Smalltalk, Postscript, VHDL, Ada, Caml, AutoIt, KiXtart, Matlab, Verilog, Haskell, InnoSetup, CMake.
- User defined syntax highlighting: It allows user to define his own language : not only the syntax highlighting keywords, but also the syntax folding keywords, comment keywords and the operators.
- Drag and Drop: The user can open a document by drag & drop. You can also move your document from a position (or even a view) to another by drag & drop.
- View Positioning: The user can set the position of the views dynamically (only in 2 views mode : the splitter can be set in horizontal or in vertical).
- Zoom In and Zoom Out: The user can zoom in and out according to his convineance.
- Multi Language Support: The Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic and Hebrew Windows environments are supported.
- Bookmark: User can just click on the bookmark margin (located right side of line number margin) or type Ctrl+F2 to toggle a book mark. To reach the bookmark, type just F2 (Next bookmark) or Shift+F2 (Previous bookmark). To clear all bookmarks, click the Menu Search->Clear All bookmarks.
- Brace and Indent Highlighting: When the caret stay beside of one of those symbol { } [ ] ( ) , the symbol beside of caret and its symmetric opposite symbol will be highlighted, as well as the indent guideline (if any) in order to locate the block more easily.
