SciTE Overview
SciTE (Scintilla Text Editor) is a free, open-source lightweight source-code editor for Windows, macOS, and Linux, built by the author of the Scintilla editing component as a demonstration of its capabilities and a genuinely useful editor in its own right. It offers fast, no-frills editing with syntax highlighting for many languages, code folding, brace matching, configurable styles, the ability to build and run code with output captured in a pane, and extensive configuration through text-based property files. Its speed and configurability make it popular with programmers who want a lightweight editor with build integration. The full offline/portable build runs without an internet connection. Its small size makes it easy to carry on a USB drive, and Lua scripting can extend its behavior for power users. This page links to the official SciTE download.
