    UltraEdit is well suited for editing very large files. The macro editor is very powerful and easy to use. If one needs a quick-to-open text file editor, you will find UltraEdit much too slow to load. Compared to some free editors on the market, the basic individual user license is quite expensive.

    • The color coding capacity is rudimentary and keyword based only. A good color coding mechanism should allow context.
    • With the latest versions, the top menu has a lot of big icons and has a user-friendly kind of look which impacts the actual text window. Most users don't fancy pretty icons and like efficiency over pretty buttons.

    The IDE Python IDLE is a good place to start as it helps you become familiar with the way Python works and understand its syntax.
    This IDE allows you to configure the environment, font, size, colors, .....
    It also looks like any simple text editor for any operating system, I work with Windows or Linux interchangeably, and you don't have to learn to use the IDE before programming.
    Once the IDE is executed you can start programming directly in it.

    As a program UltraEdit comes ready to use out of the box and requires very little setup for it to be extremely useful. It's flexibility among a wide array of tasks and files makes it a go-to for all our troubleshooting and data viewing needs. Timely updates and great support.

    Python IDLE support is what the community can give you. As it is free software, it does not have support provided by the manufacturer or by third-parties.
    In any case, for most of the problems that normal users can find, the solution, or alternatives, can be found quickly online.
    As this IDE is made in Python, the support is the same group of Python developers.

    Have never needed support, not once. So giving them a 10 for the fact that their product is so good that we've never needed it.

    It's easy to set up and run quick analysis in Python IDLE on my local machine. The output is direct and easy to read. But sometimes I prefer Jupyter Notebook when the datasets are large, since it would take too long to run on my local machine. It is easier to run Jupyter Notebook on my cloud desktop

    I have evaluated Notepad++ as an alternative to UltraEdit. In some cases, such as loading time, Notepad++ is a superior product. However, in terms of editing existing macros, and editing very large text files UltraEdit is a much better product.
