Strange, by coincidence I asked my IT coordinator for a good general text editor today for another purpose. He also recommended Crimson and it could do a lot of other useful things that I needed - convert uppper case to lower case, column editing and a lot of more. And at the same time it seems intuitive to use and not overloaded with features. One thing I've not solved yet - it does not seem to be available by right clicking on a file, eg. anyfile.txt, as an available program to use for 'open with...'. Kind regards Claus Holst

Emne [EpiData-list] Text editor for EpiData Analysis programs
Jens and I gave last week a course for operations research fellows in The Union's training program. One colleague pointed us to the excellent free Crimson text editor (http://www.crimsoneditor.com/). Jens wrote then the necessary key and language components that can be inserted into the editor to read and edit EpiData programs color-coded to reduce errors if you wish to edit your analysis programs outside the native EpiData Analysis text editor. I can strongly recommend it. Visit the EpiData website http://www.epidata.dk/download.php page and look at the bottom for utilities.
Hans
PS: Thank you, Zaw, for pointing us to the editor, and thank you Jens, to make it particularly useful for EpiData Analysis programs.
