If it's flexibility you need as a programmer then try Editra, which features
support for over 60 different programming languages. Editra is not only free
but can be just about anything you want it to be, courtesy of plug-ins.
Editra supports syntax highlighting and the focus is on making coding as easy
as possible no matter what language you're working in. At the moment, Editra
can be prone to instability because it's still in Alpha stage but there's a
thriving community of users on the developer forum steadily improving it.
Editra is based on the same principle as Firefox in that it can be extended
with plug-ins. The developer warns, however, that it's important to choose
the plug-ins that match the version of Python installed on your system. If
you are unsure of which version, it is better to use the built-in plug-in
downloader in Editra and let it choose for you. This is a far easier way too,
because it allows you to drag and drop plug-ins in place. *Editra is still
very much a work in progress but it's wide language support and extendability
make it a very interesting option for programmers working across languages
and platforms.*Download *Editra 0.7.01 Alpha* in Softonic
