The goal of RText is to create a complete, fully-featured text editor (designed primarily for programmers but can be used by anyone) to run on any platform.

Originally intended to be a Windows Notepad clone, RText has grown into much more than that.

Editor:

  • Multiple fonts simultaneously - Different token types can use different fonts and styles
  • Bracket matching - Useful for quickly scoping a block of code
  • Macro record/playback - Automate common editing tasks you do repeatedly.
  • Drag-and-drop - Easily move code around in your document or even into another application.
  • Spell Checking - Spellcheck plain text documents and source code comments.
  • Bookmarking - Mark and quickly navigate to important code sections.
  • Mark Occurrences - Easily see the scope and usage of a variable or method.
  • Code templates - Create shortcut key sequences for common coding constructs such as for-loops.
  • Unlimited undo/redo - Don't worry about making a mistake with the handy smart undo & redo.
  • File encodings supported - Edit and save files in ASCII, Unicode, or any other encoding supported by your JVM.
  • Current line highlighting allows you to quickly locate your position in a source file.
  • Margin line - Useful for keeping your lines from being too long if you're into that kind of thing.

    User Interface:

  • Drag-and-drop files from the desktop to open them.
  • Edit multiple documents simultaneously, using a (tabbed view or traditional MDI)
  • Find/Replace, with full regular expression support.
  • Find in Files and Replace in Files.
  • External Tool Support for running things such as compilers, Ant, etc.
  • Task List highlights your TODO items in source code comments.
  • Printing and Print Preview, for when you need a hard copy.
  • Auto-reload of files when they are modified outside of the editor.
  • Customizable keyboard shortcuts make using the editor a little more comfortable.
  • Completely customizable UI - change the toolbar's icon set, the application's look and feel, the colors and fonts used in the editor, what buttons are visible on the toolbar, etc.
  • Comprehensive Help documentation comes with the application.
  • Cross-platform - runs anywhere there is a JVM.
  • Localized into 15 languages.
