Old news. It’s already been renamed Neopad++. The only problem was using the name.
Nextpad++
And claiming a connection to the original author in the about, but sure
Yeah dragging Don Ho through the mud with his LLM remake, that’s the offensive part.
Use Kate.
Too many years on bbedit to change now. But Kate is great, too.
I’d just like Kate to have plugins for formatting Json and xml. Been a while, but last time I tried I couldn’t find any. It was by far my favourite editor back then, but didn’t continue after I changed jobs and needed windows.
A long time ago I had made a custom formatter for Kate via python, but I barely have any energy left to roll something in my own nowadays…
I’ve only had middling luck with KDE apps on macOS. Kate didn’t run, Okular was fine.
It’s no wonder since they are only provided as nightlies. But that’s understandable, if I was a KDE dev I’d also be loathe to buy into Apples ecosystem.
Unfortunately they won’t let me have Linux at work.
I’m in the same boat but I work in a Windows shop. Thank goodness for WSL.
Kate exists on MacOS? Seems like a no-brainer. I discovered it with KDE, of course, and it’s great.
It has a mac build but last I checked only nightly build were available for mac.
Yeah, you can also run it on Windows. It has replaced all text editors for me on any system.
