Finding the Last Editor

> One that isn’t tied to a specific platform, or preferably even a specific company, and that I trust will still be around until I’m done programming. That is Geany[0]: no opinions, no company affiliations, no editor wars. It has been around forever, works on everything, and is open-source. [0] https://geany.org/.

Geany is a fantastic, fast, powerful GUI text editor for many purposes & has a low barrier to entry

After trying a bunch of GUI text editors in Linux and on the Mac I gotta say that to me, Geany is the best.

I know, not exactly Linux.

Have you tried Geany? It’s based on Scintilla, just like Notepad++ is (although that’s an implementation detail that you don’t really need to know to use either of them), which helps it to feel very similar.

Good lightweight IDE for practising?

Check out Geany. It’s lightweight, cross platform, open source, and supports multiple languages. The download is only 20MB or so. I’m not sure about a keyboard shortcut for comments though. Link: https://geany.org/.
