Notepas is a fast native multiplatform text editor written in Lazarus and can be compiled for multiple platforms and widget sets using the advanced native Free Pascal Compiler. Aimed towards developers it is equipped with some functions usually not found in other text editors and introduces a couple of new exclusive features.

Features

  • Cross--platform: currently Windows, Linux and Mac OS X.
  • Single native compiled executable using platform native widget sets or cross-platform widget sets (QT and GTK2)
  • Clean, non-bloated and responsive user interface.
  • Portable, as settings are stored in a single XML-file.
  • Painless localization support using simple text files that can be loaded by the application at runtime (i18n using GetText).
  • Alpha blended coloring supporting multiple layers of transparency.
  • Synchronized edit: change all matching words in a selection at once.
  • Code filter: a tool to filter lines that match a given search string or regular expression.
  • Code shaper: a set of tools to apply advanced formatting rules to a text selection.
  • Smart select: make (customizable) selections that depend on the active highlighter and context.
  • Align lines: align multiple lines based on tokens found in the current selection.
  • Apply common syntax coloring rules for all registered highlighters.
  • Advanced docking support.
  • Syntax highlighting.
  • Code folding depending on syntax (currently for XML, HTML and Pascal code but will be extended to support all highlighters).
  • Multi-line comment folding.
  • Selection folding.
  • Region folding.
  • Colored line modification indicators.
  • Line numbers display.
  • Smart searching of the word at the caret position (CTRL-ALT-UP/CTRL-ALT-DOWN)
  • Highlighting of words matching the current word at the cursor position.
  • Highlighting of text matching the selected block.
  • Highlighting of search matches.
  • Highlighting of matching bracket.
  • Routine separators.

  • Supports user definable highlighters. Highlighter rules can be specified using XML.
  • Extensive set of keyboard shortcuts allowing fast navigation and intuitive text editing.
  • Drag and drop support for both files and code selections.
  • Search & replace in multiple opened files with regular expressions support.
  • Support for multiple encoding schemes (Unicode and many others).
  • Support for multiple line endings (Windows, Unix, Mac).
  • Zoom.
  • Monitor external changes.
  • (Experimental) bookmark support.
  • (Experimental) support for both internal and external code formatters.

  • Great text editor. But I need a feature to enable Right to Left direction at some line and Left to Right Direction in other lines.
