Certain word processors offer too many features, which make them too complicated, while other applications are too simple to satisfy your needs. TextWrangler combines the simplicity of a plain text editor with the capabilities of an advanced word processor. On the surface, it looks clean and simple, but you can find many useful features under its hood. The application can help you finish you work much faster, regardless of its complexity. What's more, it is offered completely free of charge and it takes only a few seconds to download and install.

A simple text editing environment takes up most of the main user interface. While typing and editing, you can make use of a few tools, around the editing area, to set markers, change the encoding, switch to one of many programming languages and more. TextWrangler's core features can be found in the menus on the top edge of the screen.

There are many situations which TextWrangler can make easier to solve. For example, its multi-file search feature allows you to find a specific string in multiple files at once and you can also replace it if you need to. Also, the application comes with file and folder comparison capabilities, so you can find even the slightest differences between two files or folders.

The amount of tools you can find in TextWrangler is quite large. This makes the application an excellent solution for any user. Programmers can benefit from its syntax highlighting and script editing capabilities or from its support for numerous languages, including HTML, CSS, Java, SQL and others. If you work with text documents on a daily basis, you can use its advanced filtering options or line sorting functions. In other words, TextWrangler serves mostly any purpose, if it involves editing text.

Pros

TextWrangler can be used for anything, from editing simple text documents to writing code. It comes with numerous tools, which can make your work much easier. The application is absolutely free and you can install it in just a few seconds.

Cons

There are no obvious drawbacks to mention. Making changes in countless documents in just a few seconds and manipulating code without any effort are just a few advantages that TextWrangler has to offer.
