So I’ve been trying to find a text editor that’s blazing fast with as little features as possible that doesn’t look like it was designed in the '90s.

I would like something that when I click on my files it opens almost instantly and only displays text in a notepad without any buttons tools, or just the bare minimum (like create a new file or something like that). I want this to read .txt files and that’s it, if I’m working on a writing I’d use LibreOffice and if I’m writing some code I’d use Atom.

      Also like Emacs, but Evil mode is a must. I wonder how some Emacs user haven’t made knots on their fingers with all the weird finger placements.

        map caps lock to control and it is fine, in my experience.
