Text Editor

ABSTARCT PROJECT SCOPE:

The current scenario of the software industry relating to s/w programming languages is you have an huge collection of programming languages wherein the importance of one cannot be underlined with the other and every language presents some features which makes a given language more suitable than the other for a given set of domains thereby a programmer has to confront the need to write code in different languages for ex a java program needs to write code in java,html,xml,javascript,jsp,sql,plsql to name a few and

each of these language has its own syntax ,code

formatting and commenting techniques To help a programmer in editing code in these languages different tool vendors provide there own individual editors so now to use these tools a programmer should be fully aware of the features ed

by

different editors in these

scenario a need for a single unified editor which can editing of multiple programming language code is extremely felt Our project is aimed to address to the above issue. TEXTOR is a powerful, pure Java text editor

primarily targeted for use by programmers. For this reason, TEXTOR provides many useful programming

functions:

syntax

colorization,

auto indentation, a source code browser, a class browser, and an integrated console. Other s will find some additional advanced TEXTOR functions useful. These include: HTML editing, the ability to send mail directly, scripting, and a configurable clip library. Lastly, TEXTOR is fully customizable with the help of plugins and XML configuration files. This enables anyone to easily translate

TEXTOR

from

English

into

other

languages.

INTRODUCTION . TEXTOR is a Java application built on top of Swing TEXTOR is a powerful, pure Java text editor

s will find some additional advanced TEXTOR functions useful. These include: HTML editing, the ability to send

mail

directly,

scripting,

and

a

configurable clip library. Lastly, TEXTOR is fully customizable with the help of plugins and XML configuration files. This enables anyone to easily translate TEXTOR from English into other languages. TEXTOR is full of useful shortcuts, which will help improve your productivity. After having read this documentation, you will be able to make the most of all of TEXTOR's many features. TEXTOR

is

an

application,

which

provides an easy use GUI which also specifies many of the editor commands in an different way. It also console where in can directly go to dos prompt with in the same viewport.. By

default,

information

about

your

editing

session is saved so that when you restart TEXTOR, things come back more or less as you

left them: the same buffers will be open (except for remote and transient buffers), and the current location in each buffer will be the same. TEXTOR

also

provides



for

named

sessions with the commands save Session and load Session. save

Session

saves

information

about

the

current editing session in a named session file. If no named session is active yet, you will be prompted for a name for the current session; subsequent saves will go to that session file without further prompting. load Session loads a previously saved named session, which then becomes the active named session as far as save Session is concerned. All currently open buffers are closed before the new session is loaded. If a named session is active, you can save the current session under a new name by using execute Command to invoke save Session with the new name as an argument (e.g. Alt X, "save Session one"). If you do this, subsequent saves will go to the new session file by default.

When a named session is active, the session name appears in the title bar of the top-level window, enclosed in brackets. By default, the information in a named session file is only updated when you explicitly invoke save Session. This allows you to exercise better control over the contents of named session files. The TEXTOR console behaves exactly like any system console (or terminal). Thus, it can be used to browse disks, launch applications, etc... Workspaces are an easy and efficient way to manage your documents within TEXTOR. Each workspace can contain a different set of files. The workspaces displays a list and two buttons. By default, the list contains an item called "Default". This is the default workspace, in which TEXTOR will load files from the command line. You can create and remove workspaces by using the button TEXTOR s all the traditional editing commands, as well as some enhancements features such as Search/replace options, Built in virtual console environment and the full Unicode

character set etc. Because the TEXTOR editing is line-oriented,

TEXTOR

for

Java

also

treats

documents as an array of lines and provides the block-edit

commands,

handles

cursor

movements, and extends the TEXTOR editing with some modern editing When saving a file, TEXTOR will do some prettyserializing of the file. PROJECT OUTLINE The outline of this application is to create a: - reliable, - portable, - fast, - lightweight, - easy to use, - standards compliant, - and functionally complete Multiple Language Editor. - Fully Featured.
