tincta is an elegant onewindow text editor that is intuitive to use on personal tasks like writing blog posts, letters or grocery lists. but it also has all functionality you need for professional web design and programming.

tincta comes with syntax color profiles for over 60 languages and very fast and reliable coloring algorithms. because no matter if you do websites or coding, well done syntax coloring is one of the most important features an editor must have.

tincta's line numbering engine not only is blazingly fast but also manages line wrapping with ease and calculates every line correctly even for large files.

we know it's the little details that makes you love a text editor. so tincta supports full drag and drop, indents selected text when you press tab, knows when an open file was changed by another application, features block selection and has an inwindow live search with highlighting.

and of course tincta has all the text editing essentials like:* vast encodings support* live search and replace with highlighting* change case* show invisible characters* page guide* printing* spell checker* convert line endings* convert tabs/spaces

tincta was written and designed from ground up. we don't use any third party code or technologies (besides mac os x) and we keep our codebase small and clean.
