Lo he usado para hacer debug de ficheros de logs de aplicaciones, para buscar patrones, para visualizar ficheros fuente con distintos formatos, para editar ficheros.

Pros

Con UltraEdit he podido abrir y editar archivos enormes sin que se quede pillado el PC. También he podido crear macros para tareas repetitivas. Es compatible con muchos lenguajes de programación y formatos, lo que facilita la lectura y escritura de código.

Cons

Es de pago y tiene menos plugins que otros editores, además de que la comunidad es menor.

Pros

E' molto stabile e supporta l'apertura e la modifica di file di testo anche di grandi dimensioni.

Cons

Rispetto ad altri prodotto concorrenti che offrono le stesse funzionalità è a pagamento dopo il periodo di prova (sarebbe stata una scelta di business e più al passo con i tempi lasciarlo ultilizzabile con al più dei popup informativi).

Pros

Un programma molto leggero, di immediato caricamento e bassissimo impatto sulle risorse del pc. Ottimo per aprire file di qualsiasi origine, in grado di editare e modificare non solo i semplici txt.

Cons

Auspico un intervento di design e ammodernamento della parte menu / icone, ma da programmatore lo ritengo l'aspetto meno importante

Je m'en suis servi pendant plus de 10 ans pendant ma carrière de développeur. Je travaillerai encore avec si ma société n'avait pas adapté un outils spécifique à mon métier (RobotStudio pour programmer les robot ABB) qui est tout aussi puissant en ajoutant les spécificité lié à ma branche professionnelle. Je garde néanmoins UltraEdit sous le coude pour réaliser mes "remplacements dasn des fichiers", fonction qui n'est pas disponible actuellement dans RobotStudio.

Pros

J'ai apprécié différentes choses comme l apossibilité de créer ma propre bibliothèque de fonctions et de procédures avec une coloration syntaxique personnalisée. De plus le système de recherche / remplacement dans tout les fichiers d'une dossier est très puissante. Je m'en suis souvent servi (ALT+R+R comme raccourcis lol) De plus le j'ai découvert la possibilité de travailler avec un mode "colonne" ou la sélection peux se faire sur plusieurs lignes et permet de modifier plusieurs lignes simultanément. Très pratique lors d'écriture redondantes.

Cons

Franchement pas grand chose à reprocher. Peut-être le système de comparaison de fichier qui n'était pas super mais à par ça, il avait le mérite d'exister.
