About Plain Text Editor
■ Highlights
- No formatting. Just text.
- Edit any plain text file like .txt, .csv, .md, etc
- Optimal line spacing and length
- Word count
- Brain dump mode
■ Known issues
The app does not have the ability to print because of iOS limitations.
Brain dump mode does not work properly with some Asian languages.
■ Brain dump mode
Lets you only write, but not delete or edit. This helps you focus on the actual writing instead of getting distracted with editing and nitpicking.
■ FAQ
‣ Can you add a typewriter mode (centered text)?
I don't plan to add that.
‣ Does it handle huge files?
No. The app is optimized for writing. Use a proper code editor for such files.
■ Support
