WinEdt is a complex and powerful text editor for Windows that was especially designed to create TeX documents. Using the complex TeX typesetting, you will be able to create books of professional standards.

The WinEdt application is also useful for developers given that it can be configured to work as a compiler. You can customize the program for a great variety of purposes. It has extended spell checking functionality that supports multi-lingual setups and also contains dictionaries for many languages that can be downloaded from the WinEdt community website.

WinEdt allows you to customize its interface depending on your needs. It allows you to customize its keyboard interface in order to assign keystroke shortcuts to any menu item. Besides offering the basic text editing functions, WinEdt has a large number of features that help users with their professional projects.

Depending on the document type you are working at, the application allows you to select from a large variety of “Modes”. A Mode represents a group of settings specific to a type of the document. For example, the programming languages perform tasks that require a specific type of settings. WinEdt allows you to select the document type before creating it. You are also able to write in more than one language using different dictionaries for different documents.

The WinEdt menu contains interfaces for a large number of actions that can be performed with the default settings. Many of them are linked to a shortcut key or a toolbar button. The Options interface can be used to modify the default menu and interface.

Although particularly suitable for writing TeX documents, WinEdt can be customized to run with different utilities and will certainly do a great job.

Used it for years (previous versions) and like LaTeX it has evolved to please but not changed to annoy. Found it useful for many tasks and I am sure to be only an amateur user.
