It's unfortunate because all I want is a notepad with syntax highlighting and Atom with most packages disabled offered that.
I don't need code complete, or a terminal, or extensions, or anything else VScode offers. I suppose now is a good time to write my own notepad :/
- donatzsky 4y agoSciTE is pretty good in that role. https://www.scintilla.org/SciTE.html https://www.scintilla.org/SciTE.html
- szastamasta 4y agoI think you should get just that with Notepad++ on Windows or TextWrangler (BBedit) on Mac. On Linux I think that all stock editors have it (GEdit, etc…). All that for free and without Electron madness. You should be much better with any of them.
- throwntoday 4y agoTextWrangler was my goto before Atom and I do prefer the look of the latter.
- sequoia 4y agoIf you use windows, notepad++ is what you're looking for. It was my first love in terms of code editors, and I still haven't found an editor (besides vim, and probably emacs) that handles on-the-fly macro recording and playback like NPP has for decades.
