Previous Macintosh operating systems (versions of the classic Mac OS) were named using Arabic numerals, as. Is there an AsciiDoc viewer for Mac OS X? Preferably one that views the document live, much like MacDown for markdown documents. There’s nothing on the App Store, and I’ve done rounds of the search engines. I would prefer a solution without Java if that's possible. Macos software-recommendation.
In the Windoze world, Notepad is a simple editor that saves text strictly in ASCII format. Clean, not embellishments or tags. Sometimes it needs to be that way.
What do I use to save ASCII text on a Mac? Somebody at the Apple store told me the answer is TextEdit, but when I went to save a file just now my choices were rich text (.rtf), HTML, Word format, or XML. No ASCII in the bunch.
So, is there a program on here that does what Notepad does? Is there one out there somewhere...??
