CSVed vs. gedit

I find it really helpful to cut and paste some of my code, or test out my ideas, using gedit. The software is quick to install and is flexible for use with a lot of different software languages. This is a pure editor that is, in my opinion, the premier notes app for coders.

• Little in the way of type hints or formatting suggestions
• Purely an editor- no way to test the code
• No way to pin or quickly search for your favorite languages; the scrolling is somewhat cumbersome

gedit is very lightweight and intuitive to use- its simplicity is its biggest strength. What you are using here is a pure editor, so it's very much like a more helpful, intelligent version of your basic note-taking application. I find other comparable applications may offer more options, but they are also less intuitive and therefore less efficient for my note-taking needs.
