UEX: UltraEdit for Linux (Now in Alpha Testing)
UltraEdit is heralded by the Windows community as the ideal text, HTML, HEX editor, advanced PHP, Perl, Java and JavaScript editor for programmers. We think delivering anything short of this to our LINUX/Mac users would be a disappointment. As such, we didn't simply port UltraEdit (Windows) to Linux, rather we re-engineered the critical components to take advantage of the native LINUX/MAC operating system - all this to give you the superior performance that UltraEdit is known for - on your operating system of choice.
The goal of UEX is to offer the sum of UltraEdit's legendary functionality to the LINUX/MAC user community - because a total solution should not be bound by OS.
A new interface for a new OS...
UEX is designed to give you the native feel of your operating system of choice, without sacrificing the knowledge you've gained in using UltraEdit on windows. So, if you're a Windows user who has made the jump to Linux/MAC, UEX will seem very familiar. UEX maintains the interface, configuration conventions, hotkeys, etc that you've come to know...
All Find/Replace/Find and Replace in Files functionality in one window
What is UltraEdit without find/replace... UEX offers the same powerful find and replace that is so critical to your day-to-day tasks.
UEX provides hex editing capabilities
Unlike most other LINUX editors, UEX has a built-in HEX editor. Many LINUX editors are limited in that you must install specific libraries, files, and other dependencies. Having specialized in text editing perfection for better than 15 years, we understand that installing and using specific libraries can be cumbersome and time-consuming. As such, we have taken the steps to make the installation of UEX as seamless as possible without the need for hunting down additional dependencies for hex editing.
UEX includes full column mode support
One of UltraEdit's most powerful features is its easy-to-use Column Mode. Column Mode, sometimes known as block editing mode, allows you to select columns of data (as opposed to rows) by changing the way you can select text in the editor. Column mode is truly indispensable...
The same configuration you're used to seeing...
Perhaps two of the most popular hallmarks of UltraEdit are its extensive feature set and its famed configurability. Of course, both of these attributes are preserved in UEX so users can enjoy the things they liked most about UltraEdit, while at the same time, leveraging its strength against computing tasks on LINUX/MAC platforms.
Macros and scripts to get nearly any job done
Scripting and macros, a favorite feature of the advanced UltraEdit user. UEX includes the built-in macro/scripting engine so you can automate your tasks and work smarter not harder.
