Sandi,
Yes TextEdit is fine until you send a sighted Windows user a text
document then you will hear about it. (smiles)

Hi. maybe i am missing something, but textedit works gorgeously.
I use windows for one thing only. Scanning books. And reading them,
and replacing weird letters, signs with textedit after end editing
with, textedit works right outta the box.
Got a couple of chromebooks so the workflow goes like this , scan
books in windows, save them as, txt files. After end ocr. Remove
unwanted letters with textedit. I run win on the mini in a vm. After
that convert to html with textutil for mac.
Works.
It is true though… line breaks have sometimes in the past been a major
problem for linux, too windows, and back. There is a easy way to fix
that though, replace them.
And yes it is extra work,
Also be aware there are things windows screen readers will not read,
that your mac , linux screen reader will read on its own so you can
easily correct it …
The sign i have too remove from books right now … are called ...dont
signs, or something like that .
Hope this helps.

HI ET,
Is there a version of VIM or VI that would work on the mac?
These are linux text editors I'm just wondering if something like that
might work for you.

Subject: Text Editors for Mac
I am taking a different path to see if I can easily create or edit
text files on the Mac that will read correctly in Windows.
TwctEdit does not insert the CR and LF codes needed by Windows. I do
not want to take extra steps to work around this such as using LineBreak
which was last updated in 2008. If I can save files as .txt in Pages
that may work but again, that means extra work.
So I am looking for accessible (and free) text editors for the Mac
that just might work.
