# What’s new in CotEditor 4.8 on Mac

Different behavior for different document
  The concept of modes is introduced in CotEditor. Depending on the type of document, you can customize the font and typing behavior of the editor.
Completely rewritten syntax editor
  The functionality remains the same, but the syntax editor for the Format setting has been 100% rewritten in SwiftUI and looks a bit more modern.
