Re: [orca-list] ultraedit

["B. Henry" <burt1iband gmail com>]

It works with remote files, and has some completion options among other things. 
I did one more test since writing Juan offlist, and spell checking is very nice. 
There are a few formatting options I don't think are in either gedit or bluefish, but most things can be done 
with one of these. 
I'm still not sure about it's html capibilities, and really am through testing for now, but this does look 
like an interesting editor for editing code 
scripts, formated config files and similar.
Oh, the other thing, Juan, I didn't see the .desktop file because I did not check the development 
submenu...lol.
