" jEdit is a mature and well-designed programmer's text editor with 7
years of development behind it.
While jEdit beats many expensive development tools for features and
ease of use, it is released as free software with full source code,
provided under the terms of the GNU General Public License.
The core of jEdit is primarily developed by Slava Pestov, and jEdit
plugins are being written by a diverse team of programmers from around
the world.
Some of jEdit's features include:
* Written in Java, so it runs on Mac OS X, OS/2, Unix, VMS and Windows.
* Built-in macro language; extensible plugin architecture. Dozens
of macros and plugins available.
* Plugins can be downloaded and installed from within jEdit using
the "plugin manager" feature.
* Auto indent, and syntax highlighting for more than 130 languages.
* Supports a large number of character encodings including UTF8 and Unicode.
* Folding for selectively hiding regions of text.
* Word wrap.
* Highly configurable and customizable.
* Every other feature, both basic and advanced, you would expect
to find in a text editor. See the Features page for a full list."
jEdit supports editing of more than 130 file types--with tag
completion and various other "stuff" that serious programmers
appreciate.
It also handles both Unicode in general and UTF8 specifically.
Obviously, it requires that you have a JRE installed as well, but it
is perfectly happy on any platform that Java supports.
