The Folding Text Editor (FTE) is a multi-platform programmer's folding text editor.
Features
- file browser
- buffers
- text-mode or presentation manager
- configuration compiler (cfte)
- Modes
- Files can be opened in different modes. The default is PLAIN. Smart indent mode can be activated for C and REXX.
- Syntax Highlighting
- Syntax colouring can be configured by command colorize.
- FTE has support for syntax colouring, code folding and syntax-aware autoindent for Ada, Assembly language, C, C++, Diff files, E-Mail files, FORTRAN, HTML, IDL, Java, LinuxDoc, Make files, Pascal, Perl, PHP, Python, REXX, Sh (UNIX shell scripts), SQL, TeX and Texinfo.
- In addition it is relatively easy to add your own syntax support to the editor but the syntaxin mechanism of FTE presents itself as a configurable state machine.
