This section gives you tips on how you use the program, and explains why you need the best text editor in your situation:

An HTML Designer
The Snippets plug-in allows you to easily insert frequently used HTML tags (such as h1, h2, p, a, etc.), templates, styles, scripts, and many other HTML elements. With the Snippets plug-in, you can use keyboard shortcuts such as CTRL + B to make the selected text highlighted (using the STRONG tag), CTRL + I as Italic (using the EM tag), etc. Zen-coding allows you to code HTML elements incredibly faster. The HTML Bar plug-in allows you to modify your HTML documents with familiar toolbar buttons. The Tooltip to show HTML/XML character references feature is useful...

A Programmer
The Projects plug-in shows the list of function and variable definitions in the current document or within a project. The Auto Marker feature allows you to highlight the same string as the function or variable names at the cursor. The Narrowing feature allows you to focus on a specified part of the document and protect other parts of the document. Multiple selection editing allows you to change variable names easily. External tools allow you to set up your compiler with the program. The spell checking feature understands CamelCase...

An Editor or Publisher
It allows you to write text very fast. It can launch fast, and as soon as you open an EmEditor window, it allows you to start typing. The Snippets plug-in allows you to insert frequently used text. The Word Complete plug-in helps you to complete words while you type. The Outline features allow you to show the outline of your text. The Word Count plug-in can count not only words but any specified characters or words...

A Database Administrator
It allows you to open very large files quickly, and the Large File Controller allows you to open only a specified portion of a large file. The tool allows you to open CSV, TSV, or user-defined separator (DSV) files. You can sort according to column values (alphabetically or numerically), and you can configure sorting options such as stable-sort. It allows you to split or combine files...

A Server Administrator
Server log files tend to be very large. The text editor can open very large files, and the Large File Controller allows you to open only a specified portion, for instance, the last portion of the file. The flexible search feature allows you to search for a specific term. You can also use the bookmark features, so that you can bookmark lines that match certain criteria, such as lines with error keywords or URLs. And then, you can extract those lines into a new file...

If You Need a Free Text Editor
If you need the best free text editor, text editor might be right for you. While not at the same level as the app Professional, the app Free allows you to do most of the text editing tasks without purchasing the product. Please see the comparison chart whether it is right for you. Once you downgrade the product to Em Editor Free, you will never be asked to upgrade or get any marketing messages, so please go ahead and keep it as the free version as long as you would like!

What's new in this version:

- In version 24.1, we have added support for the new context menu in Windows 11 Explorer. With Windows 11, the design of the context menu has been revamped compared to Windows 10 and earlier versions, necessitating special handling for apps to support this change. EmEditor is now compatible with the Windows 11 context menu, enabling you to directly select the Edit in EmEditor command. Additionally, when right-clicking on a folder or the background, the Find in Files with EmEditor command becomes available. To use this feature, the EmEditor tray icon must be displayed in the notification area of the taskbar, and it is supported only when running the desktop installer version on Windows 11. This feature is accessible in both the EmEditor Professional and EmEditor Free versions.
- Another significant feature added in the new Professional version is the enhancement of AI capabilities. Version 24.0 introduced AI macros using the OpenAI API (hereafter abbreviated as “API”). Version 24.1 introduces an AI assisted writing feature that predicts and autocompletes what you are typing next while composing text. AI autocomplete can reduce typing effort and improve writing speed. I am writing this text using EmEditor and am personally experiencing the convenience of the AI assisted writing feature.
- By default, the AI functionality is disabled. To enable this feature, you need to check the Enable AI option on the AI page of the Customize dialog box in EmEditor, and agree to allow OpenAI to process the text data within documents opened in EmEditor. Please read OpenAI’s Privacy Policy, and if you agree, click the Continue button. According to this privacy policy, data sent to the API will not be used for training OpenAI’s models.
- Next, enter your OpenAI API key in the OpenAI API Key text box. If you are logged into OpenAI, you can obtain your secret OpenAI API key here. It is recommended to store the API key in the ‘OPENAI_API_KEY‘ environment variable, but if you use the portable version of EmEditor or do not wish to share the key with other apps because you are sharing the computer, you can disable the Use “OPENAI_API_KEY” environment variable option and save the API key exclusively for EmEditor. By default, gpt-4-turbo-preview is the preferred model. It offers more accurate suggestions than gpt-3.5-turbo. For writing in foreign languages, selecting gpt-4-turbo-preview is advisable. Also, to enable this feature, you must activate the AI assisted writing option on the General page of each configuration properties. It is enabled by default for Text, Markdown, and HTML configurations.
- When this feature is enabled, as you type, AI will automatically predict and suggest the next text. The suggested text appears in gray by default, and you can accept the suggestion by pressing the Tab or End key. If you want to accept only part of the suggested text, press the Right arrow key for the number of characters to accept, or Ctrl+Right to accept one word. Pressing the Delete key will remove the first character of the suggested text. Pressing the Esc key or another key cancels the suggestion. Moreover, if you want to force a prediction by AI when no suggested text is displayed, or request a different suggestion, press Ctrl+Space.

Simply opening a file in EmEditor does not call the API. It only starts calling the API when you begin typing characters. Moreover, the following conditions must all be met to utilize this functionality:
- Running EmEditor Professional edition
- The Enable AI option is active
- The AI assisted writing option is active
- Not recording or running a macro
- The Read-only option is turned off
- No text is selected
- Not editing a very large file
- Not in CSV mode
- Not comparing files
- The document being edited is active
- The cursor is at the end of line
- Have started typing characters
- After pausing typing (about 100ms)
- Have not pressed the Esc key to cancel a suggestion
- Not just clicked elsewhere with the mouse or executed another command
- As described above, we aim to minimize the frequency of API usage. However, using the API still incurs a fee payable to OpenAI, calculated in tokens. Each suggestion consumes about 100 tokens for input and about 10 tokens for output. According to current pricing, using the default gpt-4-turbo-preview model consumes approx. US$0.0013 per instance. Opting for gpt-3-turbo significantly reduces the cost to approx. US$0.000065 per instance. For reference, using ChatGPT Plus provided by the same company incurs a monthly fee of over US$20, but if you only use the API with EmEditor, you don’t need to pay for ChatGPT Plus. Using AI with EmEditor is unlikely to amount to US$20 a month, making it an economically viable option. Using the AI macro introduced in v24.0, you can ask EmEditor any free-form questions just like with ChatGPT Plus, making it possible to completely replace ChatGPT Plus with EmEditor.

Furthermore, this version responds to customer requests:
- 1. The hexadecimal characters used for IPv6 addresses in highlight and sorting commands were only recognized in lowercase in previous versions. This was because RFC 5952 recommends writing IPv6 addresses in lowercase. However, based on feedback from a customer indicating that both uppercase and lowercase letters may be mixed, we now support uppercase letters as well.
- 2. The CommitList plugin has been improved with the addition of the Delete Remote Branch command.
