MadEdit-Mod Description
MadEdit-Mod is a fork of MadEdit, a comprehensive text and hex editor available on multiple platforms. This tool was developed as a means of picking up where MadEdit left off, retaining the original features and adding new ones to improve the user experience.
MadEdit fork with extra text-related features
No installation is necessary after download. Instead, you can unzip the files from the archive and just double-click the .exe to reach the main window of MadEdit-Mod. Bearing the same looks as the original program, it sports a clean layout with numerous options stacked in the menu bar and toolbars.
Explore standard and advanced editing options
You can open text or source code files to view content while keeping in mind that syntax highlighting is supported. As far as editing options are concerned, it’s possible to delete lines, empty lines or empty lines with spaces, trim trailing or leading spaces, insert the tab character or the system date and time, as well as sort lines by various criteria (e.g. numeric sort, remove duplicates).
Advanced editing settings enable you to copy text as hex strings, increase or decrease the indent, add or remove comments, convert word wraps to newline characters or vice versa, make text upper or lower case, invert the case, capitalize words, insert numbers (incrementally), and align columns to the left or right.
Quick searches, advanced find and replace
A quick find tool is available for the selected string of characters and doesn’t require configuration. However, you can opt for the regular search mode and tinker with options when it comes to case sensitive and whole word only mode, regex, selection restrictions, and so on.
When instructing MadEdit-Mod to find and replace files, you can specify a directory, filter files by type, exclude items and pick the encoding mode to narrow down results. Search operations can also be carried out across multiple files at the same time. You can set bookmarks and jump to specific lines or cursor positions.
Viewing options, macros, and extra tools
Many viewing settings are provided too, giving you the possibility to switch to fullscreen mode, make the window stay on top of others, lock the window position by switching to post-it mode, and change the syntax highlight type. it’s also possible to control the line spacing, opt for column or hex mode instead of text, disable the spellchecker, and hide various UI elements such as line numbers, bookmarks, and end of line.
Macros can be recorded and played back later, which come in handy for performing repetitive actions (several sample scripts can be used in this regard). Other tools of MadEdit-Mod are designed to convert the file encoding, Chinese characters and text (Markdown to HTML, HTML to plain text, Astyle C++ / C# / Java / ObjC, XML formatter), count (lines, words, characters with and without spaces, halfwidth and fullwidth words), purge history, and set file type associations. Autosaving and auto backup can be enabled from the options panel.
Comprehensive and cross-platform text and hex editor
Taking everything into account, MadEdit-Mod comes bundled with a wide range of options and configuration settings to help you work with text- and hex-related projects. It worked smoothly on Windows 10 in our tests.
