Hi All,
I need to deal often with many simple text files of many kinds... f.e.
TODO.txt in each folder as a reminder... Markdown and so on.
I have experienced a very bad behaviour with TextEdit while editing
simple and tiny text files, which every time had the same result :
GWorkspace became frozen. The only way to go ahead was to terminate /
kill the GWorkspace app with the context menu of the window. I wonder
how a simple app like an editor could freeze the whole Workspace...
So, what were the alternatives ?
I want an app well integrated in the GNUstep ecosystem.
Nedit.app is ugly and cannot deal with unicode, which I need in French
editing context.
Gemas, Emacs.app are more oriented hacking tasks done, and in my
case, Gemas is not able to load a file with #o or like a service. I
have not tried Emacs.app yet because I read about a slow scrolling in
the discuss list...
So I choose Ink.app, which seems fine and much stable for these diary
quick text editing tasks than TextEdit was.
Who does really use TextEdit on GNU/Linux OSes as the main GWorkspace
editor ?
