#### {m.txt} — the text editor for the rest of us

A minimalist text editor. No AI, no bs, no plugins or agents.

Syntax highlighting, multi-tab editing, a file-tree sidebar, and git
branch awareness — sharing its document engine with the macOS app.

Syntax highlighting for 180+ languages, with light and dark themes
A beautiful reader view for Markdown (tables, task lists, code blocks) and AsciiDoc
Inline completions drawn from your own file — no cloud, no AI
Line numbers, word wrap, custom fonts, and a minimap for the bird's-eye view of the source file(s)

Stay focused on the developing

Zen mode strips the window down to just your text
A quick-search palette takes you straight to any file
Optional glass window style and quiet background patterns — drifting sand, ripples, mist, stars

Never lose a thought with built-in revision history

Automatic revision history: autosave snapshots, plus a commit every time you save
Compare revisions with a unified diff and restore any version locally before committing to git
Session restore brings back your folder, tabs, and place on app or computer restart

For developers, by a developer

Open a folder and browse it in a compact file tree
Switch and create git branches; browse any file's commit history
Built-in viewers for PDFs, images, video, and audio — and a hex view for everything else

Yours, privately

No accounts, no tracking. Telemetry free.

m.Txt is a passion project — built to be the calm, instant editor its developer wanted every day, due to the frustration with many of the other editors out there being bloated with extras that wasn't asked for or wanted.

## Enable snaps on openSUSE and install m-txt

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

Snap can be installed from the command line on openSUSE Leap 15.x and Tumbleweed.

You need first add the *snappy* repository from the terminal. Choose the appropriate command depending on your installed openSUSE flavor.

Tumbleweed:

```
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Tumbleweed snappy
```

Leap 15.x:

```
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Leap_15.6 snappy
```

If needed, Swap out `openSUSE_Leap_15.` for, `openSUSE_Leap_16.0` if you’re using a different version of openSUSE.

With the repository added, import its GPG key:

```
sudo zypper --gpg-auto-import-keys refresh
```

Finally, upgrade the package cache to include the new *snappy* repository:

```
sudo zypper dup --from snappy
```

Snap can now be installed with the following:

```
sudo zypper install snapd
```

You then need to either reboot, logout/login or `source /etc/profile` to have /snap/bin added to PATH.
Additionally, enable and start both the *snapd* and the *snapd.apparmor* services with the following commands:

```
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor
```
