I need to edit .class, .cgi, .pl, and other such files....what's the best free program I can get?
hmmm... class files are binary java files as i know... you can not open/edit them with text editors...
you can use ultraedit or some html editors. 1st page for example
(i dont remember the addresses now)
Get
Cute HTML , that is the one I use and it has not failed me yet.
I need to be able to edit binary Java files though....
You cannot edit binary .class files as they are compiled programs, unless you want to hex edit them using a hex editor.
I have found HTML-Kit/Tidy (free) to be the most sophisticated and powerful HTML/XHTML/CSS Editor I have encountered. Among its many features it provides for incorporation of multiple Browsers for instantaneous offline or online testing of pages. I have devoted a page to its function and use -- with a download link -- on my "Tools for Web page Authors" mini-site.
Please excuse the strange signature block on my last posting -- it was not intended to be that way.
