The perfect alternative Notepad - EmEditor

  

Users who often deal with text files often love and hate Windows built-in "Notepad". It is a big advantage to use it easily, but the lack of function is really embarrassing. Is there software that can do both "bear palm and fish"? I recommend EmEditor for everyone.

EmEdior is only a little more than 2MB in size. It will automatically be associated with the text file when it is installed, and will be started with the system. It can completely replace "Notepad" without any settings. It has all kinds of powerful features, but the system resources are very few, the open text file is almost the same as "Notepad" without any delay, let's take a look at its features!

Powerful search function

The lookup and replacement function of the "Notepad" that comes with Windows system is very weak, but EmEditor makes up for this. It supports the search and replace rule more detailed and practical. The results found can be highlighted, and you can batch search for content in files that are not open in TXT, HTML, DOC, etc.: Select the "Find in file" or "Replace in file" command under the "Search" menu. , open the corresponding dialog box (Figure 1), enter the content you want to replace.

Tip: Batch replacement operations cannot be undone or restored, so be careful before final replacement, or do a backup of the source files beforehand.

Write a program more easily

EmEditor provides a lot of intimate features for learning web and programming friends, it can be HTML, CSS, PHP, ASP, Perl, PerlScript, C#, C Languages ​​such as /C++, Java, and JavaScript provide some basic frameworks, and can highlight special statements at a glance. This saves programmers a lot of work and can help programmers beginners.

Customization and Macros

EmEditor's power is also reflected in its powerful customization capabilities, which can be used to set file associations, custom menus and toolbars, and manage commons in the Tools menu. Tools and plugins (Figure 2), click "Tools /Custom" to open a custom window (Figure 2), there are a number of options, we can make EmEditor more in line with their own habits.

In addition, the macro function is also a highlight of EmEditor. For example, when you need to write the same signature information, you can record a signature information in EmEditor. For the macro of the process, click “Macro/Start Stop Recording” in the menu bar to start recording. After the recording action, click the same button to complete the recording. When you need to call a signature, you can do it easily by clicking the Run Macro button on the toolbar.

Detailed humanization

EmEditor is also very user-friendly in many details. For example, the convenient drag operation in Word is preserved, so that you don’t have to repeat it when editing text. "Cut" and "Paste", you can get it with a single drag. Print previews are also available for edited text, which makes it easy for us to typeset printed text. At the same time, it has a wealth of utility toolbars, and can be customized according to their own needs, we just put the commonly used tools on the toolbar, the operation will be easier. Like the current popular browsers, EmEditor also supports tabbed browsing. You can open multiple tabs in the same EmEditor, which is very convenient to switch.

More exciting with plugins

Like TC and Firefox, EmEditor is very rich, it can be downloaded from http://www.emeditor.com/plugins.php, after plugin installation Quick calls can be made with "Tools/Plug-ins". Here, I recommend several useful plug-ins to my friends:

MnzkOpenFolder: After installation, you can call Explorer directly in EmEditor to open a folder, but only if you need to register and register these folders. The method is to open the "Tools/Plug-ins/Customize Plug-ins" dialog box and set the properties of the MnzkOpenFolder plugin.

ToSimplifiedChinese: You can quickly convert traditional Chinese characters to Simplified Chinese, which is very convenient when reading electronic novels or traditional documents in some special character formats.

Display class plugins: Display class plugins are very rich and have their own strengths. They can realize window segmentation (including horizontal and vertical segmentation), display rulers, display line numbers to display reference lines, change line spacing, auto scroll, etc. Features.
