UltraEdit is a commercial text editor for Microsoft Windows, Linux[1] and Mac OS X (Intel) created in 1994 by Ian D. Mead. The editor contains tools for programmers, including macros, configurable syntax highlighting, code folding, file type conversions, project management, regular expressions for search-and-replace, a column-edit mode, remote editing of files via FTP, interfaces for APIs or command lines of choice and more. Files can be browsed and edited in tabs.[2]
Originally called UltraEdit, it was designed to run in Windows 3.1. A version called UltraEdit-32 was later created to run in Windows NT and Windows 95. The last 16-bit UltraEdit program was 6.20b.
Beginning with version 11, the Wintertree spell check engine was replaced by GNU Aspell.
UltraEdit-32 was renamed to UltraEdit in version 14.00.
