Ratings and reviews

Not bad ... But there's a buffer bug in between the Google Keyboard versus scites text input. This bug shows it's face when you enter text into scite (multiple lines) and then use Google keyboard to delete characters (backspace button on Google keyboard). I have to push that backspace for ten or 11 times just for it to remove a single character. It seems that the Google Keyboard has it's own copy of the text from the file being edited and scite has it's own text. While backspacing (1/2)

Had to give it a down the middle rating because I didn't use it enough to really figure out if I liked it or not. I like the idea but unfortunately it has been done better by quite a few. I really checked it out because I thought I could use it for AutoIt scripts. Don't let this deter you from just doing what you enjoy because it's still a decent app and I'm sure you've learned more since this.

i love scite on windows and linux but this thing is not usable. always opening demo files and whats worse it inserts random texts, gets stuck in copy&paste, refuses to backspace, etc
