UnicEdit
Hosted by:
UnicEdit ( = UnicodeEditor) is a simple text editor:
- single document based,
- no text formating possibilities,
- not very fast on large text files
As the first line said: a simple text editor, not a word processor!
Its main features are:
- the editor uses internally Unicode charcaters: each character can be choosen
out of a set of 65535 characters,
- the font used for displaying the text can be changed. If different fonts
support different parts of the Unicode character set, different parts of the
text can be made visible. Characters not available in the selected font are
displayed as a so called default character,
- the full Unicode name of each character (if available) is displayed on the
bottom line,
- various text formats can be choosen for import, like:
- 2 byte Unicode (UCS-2)
- 4 byte Unicode (UCS-4)
- 2 or 4 Unicode (UTF-16)
- both byte orders for the formats given above
- 1 - 6 byte Unicode (UTF-8)
- ANSI or multibyte with various code pages
If the format is unknown an automatic detection tries to make the right selection,
- various text formats can be choosen for export (see above),
- Windows NT look and feel (similar to Microsofts Wordpad).
