PlEd is an editor that can be customized using plugins. It offers an easy-to-use platform for programming and editing, with a range of features that can be tailored to specific needs.
As a software reviewer, I must admit that I prefer using a single editor that provides the full range of functionalities I need. Nevertheless, PlEd is a great tool for hackers, coders, and professionals who need to manipulate text in specific ways. It is written in Java and copyright under the GPL, which means that it is free to use, share, and modify.
One of the key benefits of PlEd is its commented source, which makes it easier to understand how the software works and how it can be extended using plugins. Additionally, in the latest release, the software has been improved in several significant ways.
For instance, a new configurable interface has been added that allows users to change the meanings of buttons for inverse meanings, thus enhancing the efficiency of the software. Also, by using StringBuffer instead of Strings, the performance and memory usage have been improved, making the software run more smoothly.
Finally, it is worth mentioning that the license for PlEd has been changed to GPL 3.0, and some minor improvements have been made to the IndentationPlugin and Tab2HtmlPlugin plugins, essentially making this software a useful tool for people who need a specialized text editor.
