JavaTyper - a text editor in Java
« on: December 21, 2010, 05:49:02 pm »
Yes, there are better text editors.

Yes, this one is good but when compared to most of the existing ones, it sucks.

Yes, it is good because I made it.

Yes, you should try it.

Yes, most of the code is mine, but I found a few things on the web.

No, it is not open-source.

Yes, it is good-looking.

Yes, it has Save/Open capabilities.

Yes, I will be uploading it.

Yes, you have lost the game.

Yes, it allows indentation with the TAB key.

Yes, it is an executable .jar file.

Yes, I am uploading it.

Yes, for the time being it is not a very good program.

Yes, it will be one day, hopefully.

Yes, the file is not large and the program is fast, but not super-fast.

I looked at the source. Java is pretty easily de-compilable.

Anyway, It looks pretty good.

Nice. The only suggestion I would have though is to make the text larger, or maybe add an option menu to increase the size.

What text format does it support? Does it also support unicode?

It supporst most ASCII symbols like the STO arrow :) UNICODE I don't really know what that is :S

I am including a colour/text format option in a near future :)

It supports Unicode. Java supports Unicode and i'm assuming you're using a JTextArea, so the text editor does support unicode.

Ah ok I was more wondering about formats like RTF, DOC, etc. But I was also curious about ASCII/UNICODE. Would it open Illusiat 81 readme fine, for example?

i think it would only support .txt files. it's like notepad, you can open whatever file you want but it won't always be human-readable. you could open a GIF but it wouldn't display an image, for example. it would give you the unicode representation of the gif data.

Yes, it opens .exe's too, but it displays the crazy code :) .txt's work perfectly, though :)

Sorry for double post, but this is an update.

Added an 'Are you Sure' function for Open and Exit.
New now opens a new frame.
The X button now closes the frame instead of the program.
Added Select All, Cut, Copy, Paste and Clear functions.

I really need to add Undo/Redo so that this has some value, but I can't do it, anybody knows how to?

:) Attached the file! Tell em what you think.
