EditPlus is a Windows program that comes with a versatile text editor for developers, coders and advanced users who work on scripting languages.
Syntax and servers
There are syntax highlighting tools that make it easier to read, write and debug code. Users can customize parameters for less common languages. Moreover, there are built-in FTP, FTPS and SFTP capabilities that allow developers to open, edit, and save remote files directly from the editor. The app simplifies deployment and maintenance workflows for websites or remote servers. In other words, data is uploaded automatically upon saving, reducing the need for third-party clients.
Folding and completion
The utility supports code folding, which lets you collapse and expand sections for a cleaner view. You can better navigate when working on large files by reducing visual clutter and improving focus. Besides, line numbering and block highlighting help maintain context while editing long scripts.
The auto-completion feature predicts code as it is being typed, saving time and reducing errors in repetitive writing. You are also able to access a Cliptext sidebar to store reusable snippets and commands. Still, if you need a third party clipboard not only for texts but also media files, you may try ClipShelf.
