Apple stops providing support and a download for old hardware. However, it is possible to force an install. The project that is responsible for this magic has achieved something truly spectacular, making it trivially easy using this GUI software.
WARNING: This is an extremely stupid and dangerous process to attempt without reading, understanding, and preparing the whole process up front. See #.spiralofhope.com/83891/opencore-legacy-patcher.html#plan. It really is very easy and works 100% for “only fairly ancient” hardware, but “very ancient” hardware might not be fully supported (yet?).

I had it for a day and didn’t particularly like it. Maybe it would have grown on me, but I ended up immediately upgrading to iOS 16.

A capable and fast programmer’s editor.
It’s capable and fast, but not being able to disable the recent files list is a killer for me.

Portable only, but it has an installer so you can easily
right-clickand open files in it.

A straightforward and capable Windows text editor which also has a portable version.
This seems like a nice daily driver for little things. I shouldn’t replace Geany with it though since I want something cross-platform.
It’s really stupid that it doesn’t have configurable shortcuts unless I want to compile it from source.
