Text Editor of Choice?
| Word -> Save As -> Plain txt file.
| PowerPoint https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=uNjxe8ShM-8
| As a filthy windows haver I recommend notepad++. Also, packing your wounds with glass and rock salt.
| np++ and nano for life
| Vim or neovim
| Vs code, sublime, nano because I'm lazy and haven't learned vim yet
| Emacs of course
| i just use nano desu
| Even thougt I appreciate the church of gnu, and R. Stallman, it's prophet, I prefer vim over Emacs. Its just a question of convienience for me. Probably i'll convert once.
The best GUI Texteditor in my opinion is „Kate“ from KDE with all it's modules and beeing integrated in other kde programs like kile and kdevelop.
| can't go wrong with vim + browsing for plugins on vimawesome.com
| As a filthy Windows user I use Notepad++, but then I start doing Javascript seriously and N++ is shit at it. So now I'm using Atom but dear lord how can a text editor be this much of a reaource hog
| >>134442
IIRC Atom is based on a web browser and those things tend to use much more resources than they should.
| I tried to use atom but I deal with extremely large log files a lot and it just refuses to work properly with them, sublime however loads them like a champ
| >>134564
Not strictly a web browser, but you're close — it's Electron, which runs on top off Chromium WebKit and Node.js
It does make the whole thing chomps on one too many resources though.
| Text editors running off node.js. What has the world come to?
Am teaching myself emacs for a couple of days now. Never gave it a thought before but am liking it so far. It uses ncurses very nicely and I like that when doing stuff remotely over some ssh connection.

In today's world some need 8GB RAM, oktacore and 3d acceleration to exchange text messages, lol.
| For anyghing small, notepad.
For sprawling, interconnected notes, wikidpad.
Long form writing, Q10.
| Ergo Emacs
...but sometimes nano is the way to go
| Sublime Text 3 on Windows, VIM on Linux are the best for me
| If you write something like code, you have to use Notepad++.
| should add np++ split views and compare plugin is fantastic when you spend time parsing through multiple 100mb+ logs all day
| atom
| Real programmers write executables directly in binary form using a hex editor.
| Atom
| >>136143
No, that's stupid. Let me all remind you that actual programmers USE the damn punch cards.
| nano
| Atom is op for GUI. Vim otherwise
| Micro ftw!
(I'm all alone here, aren't I)
| Microsoft Word and Notepad
| I have cut off all access to conventional text editors in order to write everything by steganographically implanting my messages within memes.
| sublime text 3
not only does it just werk, i can pretty much install any addon and/or theme i want in a matter of seconds
combine that with the fact that it's blazing fast, ez to use, easy on the eyes with the right theme (Ayu Mirage best) and overall good for coding, general editing, etc
| i hate word so much
| I'm using vim but I'm Going to start making my own text editor next month(this month my schedule is full)
| I use gedit bacause it came with my linux distro :p
| #136060
Then word is love, word is live.
| sed, > and >>
| Sublime text 3
