Textadept is a fast, minimalist, and ridiculously extensible text editor for Linux, Mac OSX, and Windows. At its core lies less than 2000 lines of C code, and that’s how it always will be. While other editors rely on recordable macros to speed up workflow, shell scripts to quickly transform text, and static side panes to manage your documents, files, and more, Textadept takes it to the extreme: it gives you complete control over the entire application using the embedded Lua language. Lua is nearly as fast as C, and has a very small footprint. In fact, most of Textadept is written in Lua.
Notable features:
- Multibuffer and split views
- Project manager with multiple views
- Dynamic lexers (56 and counting)
- Port of SciTE-tools’ scripts (snippets, key commands, per-language utilities, etc.)
