There are many different text editors out there and there is something for everyone. Some editors specialize in certain types of work while others have a wide range of functions.
Each editor has its own advantages and disadvantages. Some are easy to use while others have difficulties with the interface or additional tools.
It is not quite right to say that one editor is better than the other. Everything depends on the tasks and features required by the user.
The most common editors can be divided into three categories: word processors, plain text editors and all-in-one solutions.
Word processors are designed for a streamlined writing experience. They do not contain many features, but they have all the necessary formatting tools including bold/italic/underline fonts, paragraph indents, numbered lists, bullet points and more. The most popular word processor is Microsoft Word which comes as part of Office suite.
Plain text editors are simple programs that allow you to write without formatting. Instead of direct formatting, they use markup text languages such as HTML or Markdown which allows you to convert text into other formats later on if you want to publish it online or share with your friends. Among plain text editors is Notepad++ – a great choice for quick note taking or small code snippets.
Focusing on large amounts of text in the era of Internet surfing and general lack of attention is not easy – but, fortunately, technology can not only distract but also help us in our work. In this article, we will consider three text editors, which seemed to us the most convenient.
OmmWriter
The application is intended for authors whose creative impulses regularly stumble on fear of a white sheet. The OmmWriter allows you to make a white sheet of ashtray-gray, divorced blue, orange-purple or pistachio-green with one click. As you print, the background color will gradually change shade.
Several variants of fonts, several pins – and this is where the concise list of options OmmWriter ends, leaving the author alone with the desire to immediately compose something beautiful.
Final Draft
The Final Draft is a kind of magic wand that turns an ordinary user into a wizard: it has all the necessary functions for writing a script (except, understandably, inspiration and language skills). The application allows you to navigate through the characters and scenes, check spelling in 16 languages, provide pages with watermarks – and this is not counting all the basic functions required for any text editor.
Write app
For those who do not have enough minimalism alone, but lack a convenient systematization of files, there is Write. The main advantage of the application is a convenient system of organization and storage of documents (those who always can not remember where and what they saved, will especially appreciate it). And, of course, you can store your archive in the cloud, saving yourself the need to transfer files back and forth.
The minimum settings – font size and line spacing, design theme – are compensated by pleasant little things like the ability to instantly share written in social networks or send to e-mail.
