Developer’s Description

By jfmoy

Easy-to-use, powerful programmer's text editor.

Fraise (formerly - Smultron) is a free text editor for Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6 which is both easy to use and powerful. It is designed to neither confuse newcomers nor disappoint advanced users. It should work perfectly for a whole variety of needs - like web programming, script editing, making a to do list and so on. Fraise has all open documents in a list with beautiful Quick Look icons to your left so you can easily switch between many documents - you can also choose to display them as tabs if you prefer it.It is easy to program with Fraise as it colours the content in different colours depending on what the code does. You also have many ways to search for words and line numbers to help finding the code you are looking for. You can also split the window in two to display two parts of the same document or to compare two different documents side by side. You can also preview HTML-files directly in Fraise and save snippets of text and insert them simply with a shortcut. And if you don't want to be disturbed by other applications or the desktop you can let Fraise cover the whole screen to let you concentrate on your work. For the more advanced users Fraise can find all those system files that are normally hidden and it has authenticated open and saves for them. Smultron can also use regular expressions and it can run commands and scripts. For all international users there is full support for all encodings and it is translated into many languages.

None because it didn't work.
Cons
I could not type into any document, nor open an old one.

Don't, unless you can figure out something I was missing. Otherwise it's just a waste of your time.

Fraise as a replacement for Textpad

Pros
Cons
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />I am a recent convert to OS X and have searched long and hard for a replacement for Textpad. Fraise is it! Easy to create new commands and clips - highlighting for ASP among many other languages. Brilliant!!! Fraise combined with Yummy FTP I wonder how I ever managed in Windows,
Easy to use interface w/nice customization options.
gurnxAugust 20, 2010
Pros
Small, free, easily customized interface. The author indicates a planned future redesign of the application, looking forward to it.
Cons
Helpfile refers to Smultron, at least it's good/helpful.
Summary
A great free text editor for html and the like.
BeantownMacMarch 30, 2010
Pros
Intuitive, really easy to use, graphically better than other freebies.
Cons
None really, esp for a free product.
Summary
Thanks to the new developer for taking over from Peter B on this. This is my favorite text editor for html and the like, and I plan to make a donation to keep it going.
Very Fast HTML editor
calben99November 15, 2009
Pros
Automatically highlights code for you, very fast.
Cons
Havent found any yet
Summary
Quick, simple and coloured syntax - do you need more?
CurlyCarlyMay 11, 2009
Pros
Quick, easy to use, coloured syntax, pretty environment to code in.
Cons
cannot think of any
Summary
I love it as a hard coding environment - but I love the ease of some of dreamweaver's features in comparison!
Brilliant

Pros
Cons
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />With a type expander like Typinator (much less buggy than TextExpander), Smultron competes with BBEdit. Advantage - your sniplets are accessible in all your other text editing applications (including browsers). Brilliant, simple, a rest for weary eyes. Light footprint. I own BBEdit but plan to do a lot of my work in Smultron going forward. Great split screen, tab and preview functions. This is not freeware but donationware. Donate and enjoy software without annoying installation and licensing routines.
Sunny days back - since 3.0.6
