Guys,
We have some reports that come out of a legacy unix system. They're
pretty standard unix reports: space-separated, 132 columns, ^L-page fed,
\n-line fed files.
I'm looking for a free (as in speech, hopefully) text editor that can
properly read and print these files on the windows side. JEdit is the
only free one that's done a good job recognizing the line feeds and EOLs,
but the printing is horrible.
Anyone know of one I should take a look at? I've looked at a few others
(notepad++, notepad2, jext), but none fit the bill. It's a VERY simple
task we're using it for, simply printing and viewing, so no super duper
features needed.
Thanks guys!
John
