Date 2021/12/29 14:20:00 | Topic: Software News

The first public version of LiteXL editor just released. This is a lightweight text editor written in Lua and SDL, with features like Syntax Highlight, custom plugins, color themes etc. This is the first port based on the v1.16.12 source code of the program.
Lite XL is derived from lite. It is a lightweight text editor written mostly in Lua — it aims to provide something practical, pretty, small and fast easy to modify and extend, or to use without doing either.

The aim of Lite XL compared to lite is to be more user friendly, improve the quality of font rendering, and reduce CPU usage.

LiteXL for AmigaOS 4 is still experimental and there are some known issues, but it is quite usable. It is recommended to use it on a fast AmigaOne, although it was tested on microAmiga1 and works pretty good, but slow.

Please, read the enclosed README_OS4.md file before run it.
