text-editor

The answer to this must be somewhere but I'm not finding it -- can anyone help me understand why in Gedit, if I have a page of code there is no extra trailing blank line, but then when I do a file comparison for my svn commit it shows an extra line being added at the end of the file? I have a feeling that Gedit is automatically adding an ending line break. But why, I have no idea... Reality finally won and it's been fixed , but the broken behavior is still the default; enable the WYSIWYG behavior in a terminal with gsettings set org.gnome.gedit.preferences.editor ensure-trailing-newline false

I am Intellij user and get really used to it and especially it's keymap (all kinds of goodies for text: ctrl+w, alt+mouseDrag...). What I am looking for now is text editor for programming that would be familiar to Intellij way of work (in some sense). In ideal world, I would like to get similar keymap by default or have it as a plugin. Second best thing would be having keymap to be "very compatible" with Intellij when I set keymap manually. What I mean by that is that, often, its best to stick with tool's keymap, because it is designed in diferent way, for example, I when coming from Eclipse

Background: JEdit (and some other text editors as well) support a feature called Multiple simultaneous text insertion points . (at least that's what I'm calling it here). To understand what this means, take a look at the link. Out of all the features in use in modern text editors, initial research seems to indicate that this is one feature that both Emacs and Vim do not actually support. If correct, this would be pretty exceptional since it's quite difficult to find a text editor feature that has not made its way into at least one of these two old-school editors. Question: Has anyone ever seen

Maybe even a pack for Notepad++ or any other Text Editor? Thanks. Although what Daniel said is correct: Maybe something like this? http://sourceforge.net/projects

I've been using dreamweaver since I started learning basics in html like a year ago, and now I would like to change to a free alternative, since I don't need the WYSIWYG and other dreamweaver functions anymore. However, I have tried Notepad++ and first it seemed great, but it sometimes crashes after not being able to connect to ftp. Also I really got used to the ftp/explorer, that dreamweaver has, where you are able to transfer images and other things right through the text editor, not just code files. So is there an alternative for me? Nowhere man If you're doing web development, you probably

ReSharper has a nice feature called "extend selection": by pressing CTRL+W (I think this is the default) repeatedly, you select more and more from your current caret location. First it's a word, then more and more words, a line, inner then outer block of lines (for example an if-block), then a function, etc... Basically, by pressing the key combination repeatedly, you can end up selecting the entire file. I'm sure at least some of you will be familiar with it. I have just started learning all the intricacies of vim and I don't have enough experience to see how something like this could be

Are there any good text editors for F#? Instead of firing up resource-intensive Visual Studio, I would like to know if there are any text editors that can pretty-format F# code. I am just getting started with F# and learning through FSI.exe with Notepad is giving me so much trouble... Check this out: F# Without Visual Studio Not to be too much of a tease, but looking ahead, VS2010 uses a new rehostable editor component, you can hear some about it here: Hanselminutes Podcast 147 - The new WPF-based Text Editor in Visual Studio 2010 - Interview with a Dev Anyway, this means that the F# editing
