Best Free HTML Editor for Linux

KompoZerKompoZer , one of the best free WYSIWYG editors is KompoZer, our top recommendation for newbies. It's designed for non-technical computer users who want to create an attractive web site without needing to know HTML. Features include integrated file management (upload to and edit files on a web server), tabbed editing (allowing work on multiple pages), and support for forms, tables and templates. (Review)

 

NetBeans started life as a Java Editor but with recent releases it has developed into a powerful text editor for web scripting.

At first glance, NetBeans is a little intimidating. Most of the menu items can be ignored by ordinary mortals. Using it as an HTML/PHP editor is akin to using a steam hammer to crack a peanut. Nevertheless the code completion, code colouring and the professional look and feel make it an excellent choice. (Review)

 

Best Free NFO Viewer for Linux

NFO Viewer , a simple viewer for NFO files with preset font, encoding settings, automatic window size and clickable hyperlinks.

 

Best Free Programming Editor for Linux

Atom , a cross-platform and open-source text editor that is modern and customizable with themes, multiple panes, file system browser, smart autocompletion, code folding, syntax highlight, find and replace, spell check and built-in package manager to add new features and functionality such as Teletype collaboration and IDE.
