Keep Your Software Simple! A Review of EditPlusI like my software simple. If it's too complex or difficultto figure out, I don't use it.For example, I have tried a lot of different programs forcreating my web pages. These include:Namo WebeditorMicrosoft FrontpageDreamweaverNetObjects FusionHotdog ProCoffeeCup HTML Editorand a variety of other commercial, shareware and freewareeditors. Each time I tried one of these, I found it toocomplicated. What are all these "panels" for? How to I seethe underlying HTML code for my page? What's a "web"? Howdo I begin to use this package? I just couldn't get answersto my questions easily.Now my hard disk is bulging from the growing number of HTMLeditors I got from download.com and then abandoned.A couple of years ago, I discovered EditPlus. It's a verysimple and easy-to-use editor. Yet is also has plenty of sophistication if you need it.You can use EditPlus both as a text editor and as an HTMLeditor. This nifty piece of software has an internalpreview capability so that you you get a quick check onyour HTML code. It also has a spelling checker, word wrap,and a word counter. It even includes FTP functions so thatyou can upload your web pages to your host provider.I wrote this article, formatted it for publication, addedHTML code and published it on my web page using EditPlus.So far, I haven't read a manual for EditPlus and don't feelI need to because the program is so intuitively easy to use.I admit that you need to learn some HTML if you want to create and edit your web pages with EditPlus. But I getnervous when I try to create a web page with one of thosedesigner packages where the HTML code is hidden from view.I keep going back to EditPlus after trying those othercomplicated web design programs.If you want to test it, you can download a trial of EditPlusfrom http://www.editplus.com. The cost of the software isminimal (only about $30) and well worth it.Why can't more software developers follow the KISSphilosophy? Keep it Simple, Stupid! I'm convinced theywould capture more of us simple-minded users if theyfollowed this principle. Then it would beKeep It Simple, Smarty! Article Tags: Software Simple, Html Code
