Software Overview
IDM UltraEdit is a cross-platform text editor that allows you to edit a large amount of file formats and provides various text editing features. The program requires purchase but offers a free fully-functional 30 day trial.
UltraEdit supports the common .TXT and .DOC files, and many of the most popular developer files, such as .HTML, .CSS, .C, .H, .AS, .JSON, .PHP, .PL, .PY, .SQL, and .JAVA. The text editor comes with some basic editing and formatting capabilities but provides a large array of advanced coding features. It offers syntax highlighting, intuitive multi-caret editing and multi-selection, find and replace capabilities, smart templates, and support for macros and scripts for automating tasks in UltraEdit.
The program comes with an integrated FTP client with support for FTP, SFTP, and FTPS that allows you to open, save, and modify files from a remote server. UltraEdit also allows you to customize the user interface (UI) of the app. You can choose the settings for the theme, layout, and ribbon to tailor the program to your needs.
UltraEdit is a text editor that is packed with tons of coding features, support for many programming languages, and a customizable UI. However, it is a steep price tag for a text editor. If you are looking for a simple text editor, try NotePad or TextEdit, which come bundled with Windows and macOS. But if you are looking for a text editor to handle your text files and give you a ton of helpful coding features, IDM UltraEdit is a great choice.
