Please suggest a text editor for writing my java programs. It should be similar to Notepad++. Should have: syntax highlighting, tabs, be colorful, and other advanced features leading to ease in writing programs. Also, it should be in Ubuntu Software Center as I am not able to download text editors from chrome. I downloaded SciTE Text Editor but it is not that colorful as N++. Looking for something better.

Thank you.

  • It's a good one but resembles Sublime Text for the most part. Thanks for the suggestion.

    if you can't find anything else then install notepad++(the windiows edition) in wine works perfectly well
