EmEditor has a lot features you can read on www.emeditor.com, I use a lot of them. But there also a lot small points (not on this list), what it makes for me the daily work easier an there and therefore it is the best editor on microsoft platform for me. For example "Auto Marker" its one of small features what I don't want miss by daily work. "Filter" or "batch find/replace" featur are only two off the long list of features what I can't see by other ones. With "Filter" makes daily work faster and easier compare to "find". The filter, search and replace function has special options (e.g. number range) that I have never seen by competitors. Many other programs fail, because they are not able to open very large files (especially non-commercial programs), to filter with regex, or are much slower. It's easy to install, to use and to customize for you needs. I made a lot macros for my needs, so I save a lot time by daily work, undeppendet if for a lot small or really large files. For macros you can juse javascript or vbscript, other editors have often proprietary macro language. Plain Text not always easy to read. I spend a lot time for searching an Plain Text Editor with "even lines" view. By EmEditor I used "horizontal grid" view, what makes reading on files with long lines easier. Now "even lines" it's also a new features by EmEditor, so it's on your personal taste if like "horizontal grid" or "even lines" or still blank. "Auto Marker" and Markers are additional points for better and faster reading. For example, with "keyword highlight" I use by log files regex, so I see public ip's in a different color as pivate ip's. I am sure that I have forgotten a lot to write here, because there are countless functions that I use in my daily work with emeditor and only notice when I work on another computer (without EmEditor), whether professional or private. For me it is no longer a question whether i should use a commercial or a free editor. The functions, the fast qualified support as well as the continuous improvement and further development make emeditor the first choice for me.

There simply isn't a better editor for working with large text-centric files under Windows. The product is massively optimised and continues to be continually improved, with both further optimsations and new features. We have been using EmEditor for over 5 years now and it is worth every penny. We have tried virtually all of the major text editor's on the market and as an overall package, EmEditor comes out on top for working with large files.

EmEditor can be adapted for professional or personal projects. I like that it has a simple interface, compatible with a wide variety of files. Another feature that I like is that it is a lightweight program. I also like your autocomplete and replaced options.
