• My favorite text editor

  jurgfella3/3/2012

  Pros

  I use a number of text editors in the process of data extraction and manipulation. This is my favorite. Easy to use, with robust and versatile macro recording. Handles large files exceptionally well. Never crashes.

  Cons

  Wish it had the ability to extend searches, but that's about the only missing feature for me.

• Best balance of features

  jurgfella11/19/2010

  Pros

  I've used Textpad, EditPad, UltraEdit, and Notepad++, and EmEditor has most balanced feature set. Macros are especially easy to write and use, and can be saved in VB script and java script. Program is very robust, never crashes.

  Cons

  Wish I could turn off automatic presentation of CSV files in columns. Otherwise, nothing.

  Summary

  Use this product to manipulate very large data files (50,000 lines or more) and it does that very well.

• A superb text editor for handling huge files

  banderson1667/7/2010

  Pros

  Handling really large files, progress bars show you how it's doing for loading & saving. You know exactly where you are at all times.

  Cons

  I didn't want it as my default text editor, but it assumed I did.

  Summary

  I needed a text editor to handle huge (>1Gb) xml files, and this fits the bill perfectly. An excellent tool for that kind of work.

• Excellent text editor

  Hosam A. Mahmoud8/13/2009

  Pros

  I haven't yet seen any other editor that can open very large files as smoothly as EmEditor. It also runs well on Ubuntu Linux with WINE 1.1.26.

  Cons

  There are no visible efforts being exerted to make it easier to use it with WINE on Linux.

• Best general purpose text editor

  jamesh00392/10/2009

  Pros

  This text editor is rock solid and fast. I have used it most days since November 1999 and every version is an improvement on the last. Search and replace (including with regular expressions) and search highlighting I cannot live without.

  Cons

  no hex editor, but you can open binary files

  Summary

  Opens huge files quickly. Never crashes. Macros are easy to record and modify. Plugins are useful. Fantastic unicode / text encoding support, so if you ever open files with Asian encoding, you can trust EmEditor to work properly. It can usually detect the correct encoding. When searching, EmEditor highlights evey instance (i.e. maybe Google copied this from them?). Also you can setup EmEditor to keep these highlighted for previous searches, which I find very handy when searching for multiple related searches and I want to see them in context with each other. (All Configurations, Display tab, increase Search Colors). EmEditor can use tabs or use individual windows. I use individual windows so it is just like Notepad. Unlike Notepad though, if I try to open the document again, it goes to the same window. Also unlike notepad, EmEditor has unlimited undo, which works every time. When searching, I can switch to a different document and press F3 to find the same thing, because F3 is global for EmEditor.<br /><br /><span class='notifyMsg'> Updated </span>on Feb 19, 2009<p/>Update: I installed the latest version and it appears to have a hex editor!
