For long time I have been working on windows platform sine first time I have touched the computer. Over the time I become in the development environment. After becoming team leader and then Systems Architect, I have reached to the point that I have a certain applications which I familiar with and know all of its features; one of the most interesting nifty notepad applications is Notepad. The default Notepad editor comes in very handy to quickly note down some important notes. However, the lack of potential features is realized when you are forced into the situation where you’ve to compare two text files or edit HTML document for instance. In such situations Notepad is a more than adequate alternative to native Notepad app. Is an open source project and is completely written in C language.

Not only does it provide simple text editing option but also wide range of native add-ins and third-party plugins to make it the best Notepad alternative on Windows PC. It has a large swathe of features that makes it a developer's favorite alternative.
It includes multi tab document support, easy comparison, syntax highlighting, syntax folding, document map, auto completion, macros support and many others, But how about such functionality on Mac? Is there any Notepad for Mac? Recently (from 4 years) I worked on Linux and Mac, but I admired with Mac and decided to buy a Mac pro laptop, and for sure I searches for the same applications I used to use before on windows, sometimes you find and other you didn't, therefore you should get alternatives. Since Notepad is not available on Mac, I will cover some of the worthy alternatives of Notepad for Mac.

Run Notepad from “On My Mac” or from wherever you have installed the App to. If Notepad finds some updates, just let it install them – select “Restart Notepad” after the updates are installed. Wait for Notepad to apply the updates and relaunch itself. Mike WineBottler: MetaTrader: Wine: Music: Tags:, This entry was posted on Sunday, June 23rd, 2013 at 19:48 and is filed under,.
