To be precise, Scribes might be the best way to work without any distractions. The main feature of this little text editor is its simplicity. Its built as a powerful distraction free text editor which have a good amount of useful feature packed inside it…
Most of the other distraction free editors like PyRoom doesn’t have many features. They are not really good for programmers. But Scribes is different. It have a good amount features which a programmer want, like syntax highlighting, bracket completion, auto indentation, auto word completion and more…
If you take your mouse to the top right corner, you’ll get the tool bar which will again auto hide after some seconds. Actually, it will be great if I can move that corner to the left side because I’m used to hitting the left corner in Gnome shell. Fortunately, we can adjust it from the panel!
If you want a real distraction free editor, press F11 and you’ll get a full screen editor. Actually, there are a lot of features hidden inside this editor. If you want to learn everything, press the ctrl + h keys to see all the keyboard shortcuts to trigger each cool feature like the file browser, file switcher, bookmark manager, etc. Scribes also support extensions which mean you can extend its features if you find the right plugin!
