A Terrible Text Editor
A downloadable text editor for Windows
This here is a really simple text editor I made using Godot.
Have fun with it, I guess.
Features
- Create and/or open UTF-8 text files.
- Read and edit UTF-8 text files.
- Save UTF-8 text files.
- Prompts to avoid quitting without saving.
- Tracks saved state. Line numbers. Optional minimap.
- Optional text wrapping.
- 'About' dialog.
Known Issues
- The set states of options are not saved, and must be reset every run.
- No mechanism to prevent opening non-text files.
- UI is really big on Mac and on non-HiDPI Windows
Development Plans
- Literally none.
Feedback, suggestions, and bug reports will be read, but I cannot guarantee I will do anything about them.
If anybody actually wants it I can make a Mac and/or Linux version.

Install instructions
Just download either file here. No installation is needed. If you download the zip, unpack it literally anywhere on your computer. Then, run the .exe file to run the program.
Note: If downloading the zip file, the included .exe and .pck MUST be kept together. If separated, both become useless.
