MARGAY / WINDOWS
A little editor. A complete toolkit.
From the first line to the finished document. Explore the tools for text, code and Markdown, all working with your local files.
Everyday editing, without the friction.
Text and code, with the tools you reach for every day.
- Syntax highlighting, find and replace, go to line and code folding.
- Multiple cursors, line sorting and duplication, case conversion, indentation, comments and date/time insertion.
Your files, handled with care.
Work directly with real files and stay in control of saving.
- Native open and save dialogs, Save all, reorderable tabs, inline renaming and recent files.
- Encoding and line-ending controls, external-change detection, read-only protection and recoverable Margay Trash on supported local NTFS volumes.
Folders within reach.
An explorer for local drives, chosen folders and registered WSL distributions.
- Lazy folder expansion, filename filters, editable exclusions and cancellable filename searches.
- Choose your roots, move or resize the sidebar and open supported files from Windows. Windows controls default-app selection.
A space that feels like yours.
Choose your appearance and keep the interface in your language.
- System, light and dark themes; JetBrains Mono or locally installed Windows fonts; text size, word wrap and visible whitespace.
- English, Spanish, Italian, French and Portuguese throughout the interface, including editor controls. Searchable shortcut help and offline component licences.
Two views. One flow.
Keep separate files or linked views of the same document together.
- Split side by side or top and bottom, with independent selections and scroll positions.
- Optional synchronized scrolling and one shared editing history for linked views.
Find it across your folder.
Search the contents of a chosen folder and open documents.
- Literal text search, case sensitivity, grouped results and context around each match.
- Unsaved open documents take precedence. Cancel a search and see when size, time or access limits make results partial.
See the shape of your document.
Jump through Markdown headings and supported code declarations.
- A structure view follows the active file and updates as you edit.
- Navigate headings, declarations and sections in supported formats. This is document navigation, without a project-wide semantic index.
Keep a place in the thought.
Session bookmarks bring you back to the lines that matter.
- Toggle from the editor margin, View menu or Ctrl+Alt+B; group and filter by file.
- Markers follow edits and undo, work across split views and leave your document unchanged. Bookmarks last for the current session.
Make code easier to read.
Format 16 language families locally, without sending code away.
- JSON, JSONC, JSON5, YAML, Markdown, HTML, Vue, Handlebars, XML, CSS, SCSS, Less, JavaScript/JSX, TypeScript/TSX, GraphQL and standard SQL.
- Format supported selections, validate JSON/JSONC/YAML, compact JSON/JSONC and undo changes. Formatting supports files up to 2 MiB; it does not execute code.
From raw data to a clear table.
Edit CSV and TSV in a table, then return to their source.
- Read rows and columns clearly and edit cell values.
- Keep text and table views connected to the same document and editing history.
Markdown, from source to page.
Choose Code, Document or both together.
- Formatting tools, heading navigation, editable Markdown tables, local formulas and supported flow or sequence diagrams.
- Read and search the rendered document. Remote resources and executable HTML stay blocked; local images need folder permission.
A document ready to share.
Take Markdown beyond the editor.
- Export standalone offline HTML or PDF, or use Windows printing.
- Export a separate copy while keeping your original text, unsaved edits and undo history.
Write with confidence.
Optional offline spelling with 43 language and regional dictionary variants.
- Choose dictionaries independently of the interface language; install the ones you need.
- Context-aware underlines, suggestions, undo, ignore for this session and a personal dictionary for each language.
Pick up where you left off.
Optional local continuation restores tabs and drafts.
- Keep drafts locally without automatic expiry, subject to resource limits and sensitive-file exclusions.
- Restore safely without saving over originals. Undo history is not carried across restarts.
