AYATE is a very simple text editor and encoding converter that may replace the Notepad as a default text editor.
The big advantage of AYATE is the ability to open and work with large files, >20MB in size.
A simple benchmarking for opening 23.1MB txt file:
· AYATE - 12 seconds after which the text is scrollable to the bottom and editable in real time with no stutter. · Notepad - after 600 seconds the txt file is not yet opened.
The program can read virtually any encoding and serve for encoding conversions. The encoding menu sets the file read/write encoding: open file with one encoding selected, change the encoding and save the file. Moreover, you can add any encoding not in the list manually according to your needs.
