What’s new in CotEditor 2.4 on Mac

Improve text finder

CotEditor re-implemented text find actions by own code. More sophisticated and integrated UI makes your text search process much more intuitive.

Brackets and quotes balancing

For instance, typing { inserts the corresponding } then moves the cursor into the brackets automatically. The feature helps reduce bothering cursor movement and contributes to your smart coding.

Clickable URL links in documents

This new option detects URL strings in your documents and provides them as clickable & quick-lookable links.

Better detection on the file opening

We reviewed the previous file detection code and improved the precision of the encoding detection. Furthermore, CotEditor 2.4 alerts about a file that isn’t obviously a text file in order to avoid unwanted hang-up.
