Did you ever see a font which is as readable as this one?
At such a small size?

Valletta is the first single-pane Markdown editor. Valletta's unique Combined View displays only the line under the cursor as Markdown source, and it displays the rest in "marked-down" form. This makes Valletta a beautiful and distraction-free Markdown Editor that doesn't waste your precious screenspace with an unnecessary preview pane.

The Sublime Text 2 has docs for linking the app to the command line in OS X.

Doing the same for linux is almost identical:

$ sudo ln -s /home/ed/apps/sublime_text_2/sublime_text /usr/bin/subl

It’s exceptionally easy to create an etched effect, since we only need to replicate two aspects of how shapes look in the real world when they’re cut into a surface:

- The natural shadows inside the cut-out part.
- The subtle pools of light falling onto the front edges of the cut-out part.

The following packages (in alphabetical order – all available from Package Control): Additional PHP Snippets, Alignment, ApacheConf/htaccess, As Above, BracketHighlighter, BufferScroll, Case Conversion, Clipboard History, CoffeeScript, ColorPicker, copy-file-name, DetectSyntax, DocBlockr, DocBlox, HTML5, HyperlinkHelper, IndentXML, jQuery Snippets, LESS, MarkDown Preview, Nettus+ Fetch, Open Recent Files, Open Include, PHPDoc, PHPUnit, Placeholders, Prefixr, Pretty JSON, Quick File Creator, Quick File Renamer, SidebarGit, sublime-github, Trailing Spaces, WordCount and of course WordPress

The best way to do this, is to create your own custom launcher for Sublime. Make sure you have a sublime.desktop file in ~/.local/share/applications (You can also put it in /usr/share/applications if you want it to be available to all users on the box, but you'll need root privileges to do so.) Here's a copy of mine:

Code: Select all
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Sublime Text Editor
Comment=Sublime Text Editor
Exec="/home/jim/bin/Sublime Text 2/sublime_text" %F
MimeType=text/plain;
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Icon=/home/jim/Pictures/sublime-64px.png
Categories=GNOME;GTK;Utility;TextEditor;Development;Utility;

Keep in mind that you'll need to know the path to the executable and the path to the icon that you want to use.

This package sets the default file type of new files to be either the same as the current file, or a predefined default.

This only affects files which are created with the Ctrl+N shortcut (Cmd+N on OSX).

TextDropApp Edits Text Files in Your Dropbox Account

Storing files in Dropbox is great, but if you need to make quick edits when you're on the go it's not the best tool. TextDropApp is a simple solution that allows you to create or edit plain text files directly in your browser and syncs them automatically with Dropbox.

TextDropApp has a simple interface without a lot of function, but it works well for quickly editing files or making notes. It's a handy way to keep a plain text to-do list or programming code synced up across computers, especially if you can't install the automatic Dropbox sync on a work computer. The information is transmitted through a private server before heading to your Dropbox account, so be careful with what you use it for.

A few years ago, I found myself writing my first PHP projects using metapad. When I was looking around for text editors with syntax highlighting, I have come across the Scintilla source code editing component. I was very much impressed by this project, so I decided to create my own Scintilla-based text editor.

The result is Notepad2, a fast and light-weight Notepad-like text editor with syntax highlighting. This program can be run out of the box without installation, and does not touch your system's registry.

ReText is a simple text editor for MarkDown syntax that supports some popular formats such as PDF, ODT, HTML and plain text. Using ReText you can even export your documents to Google Docs (but for now, each export creates a new document).

The idea here is to take attacklab.net's already excellent showdown script and add some simple load, save and print functionality to it. At no point am I suggesting that my experiment should be used as a fully-featured text editor - it isn't - but rather as a simple tool created to gently introduce others to markdown.

SimplyRead is a simple program to remove unwanted distractions from webpages, in order to better enjoy reading on the web. It removes everything but the article from a webpage, displaying it simply and attractively.

The program is packaged as an extension for several web browsers, or as a standalone JavaScript program to integrate into other browsers.

Running it multiple times switches between showing the original page and the simple version.

This project is technically inspired by Arc90's Readability, but aims to be much simpler, faster, and more usable. More generally, it is inspired by Sean Birketts' The Gutenberg Elegies and Nicholas Carr's The Shallows.

"The ever-present awareness of possibility to either make or refuse choice, was to preempt my creating any meditative space for myself" - Sean Birketts, The Gutenberg Elegies

boom lets you access text snippets from the command line.

You probably hate typing the same shit over and over again. You probably sit in front of your command line prompt every day. Let's smash those two concepts together in the face.

Some people use boom for shit like:

Tracking URLs. It's sort of like your own personal del.icio.us. I upload animated GIFs mocking my coworkers, and boom lets me access those quickly.
Simple todos. Why use an ugly task manager app when it's all loaded into your shell?
Common responses and snippets. Stock email replies, private code copy and paste, things like that.
