Publisher's description of Programmer's File Editor (32-bit)

From Alan Phillips: Programmer's File Editor is a 32-bit text editor primarily oriented toward program developers. Though it contains features such as the ability to run compilers and development applications, it also makes a good general-purpose editor for any other function. Features include multilevel undo, active buttons on a tear-off toolbar, automatic C-aware indenting, Unix file support, remappable keys, keyboard macros, and more.

While this file is still available, the developer is no longer updating or supporting this product.

  Awesome replacement for notepad

  by: gbh1935 on 08-Jun-2006 08:24:37 AM

  Pros: Whether coding by hand or editing a huge text file this is a great tool. It will open files that notepad chokes on. Macros and templates make this one a winner

  Great for Editing English Files

  by: miqrogroove on 28-Apr-2008 09:47:03 PM

  Pros: Edits large text files simultaneously without the fuss.

  Cons: Lacks support for non-English character encoding. In this respect, it is inferior to Notepad.

  Programmer's File Editor (32-bit)

  Underrated and free. Ideal for enormous files and power users.

  by: Level on 28-Oct-2005 06:06:30 PM

  Pros: Powerful, flexible, and feature rich, yet easy to use. Contrary to what the previous reviewer said, you CAN configure tab sizes in PFE. In fact, there aren't very many things that you can't do with this editor. Programmable behaviors provide unlimited power if you need it.

  I've yet to find a text file too big for PFE to handle. It loads 500 MB log files with ease. Robust--does not crash. Every operation is unbelievably fast. It tells you when the file you are viewing has been updated, all of which make it great for real time monitoring of log files.

  Cons: It doesn't handle certain varieties of Unicode text files well, in my experience. The default key mappings are non-standard for Edit Find and Edit Replace, but those are easy to change.

  Pros: Very fast loading large files, one of the best editor at its year of creation (i.e. year 1999), thanks to the software creator.
