Author Topic: Can't find a .cs File Opener  (Read 714 times)

I run a Mac 10.11.6 El Capitan and I'm trying to find a .cs file opener, anyone know of one?

It's literally just an unformatted text file. You should be able to open it with Textedit, Notepad++, or whatever flavor text editor you choose.

You'll have to set Textedit to open .cs files though, since it's not a file extension that it will recognize by default.

I highly recommend Sublime Text 3, as it is a text editor that although technically paid, is essentially unlimited free trial, and comes by default with syntax highlighting for .cs files. It's very lightweight (quick to load, low computer resource usage) and easy to use out of the box, and customize if needed. You can also easily install other packages for visual and syntax highlighting.

Oh thanks textedit works

Ever since the dawn of the digital age, all the circles of hell are overflowing with the damned spirits of millions of internet-dwellers who never paid for WinRar. May Baphomet have mercy on their wicked souls. WinRar is not free software.

i will pay what i owe to sublime after i have decided whether or not i really want to own the software :^)

but in all honesty, it is worth $60. i'll gladly pay it - probably double tbh - when i have an actual job/make actual money - it'll probably have served me more than a couple years by then

Sublime helped me out so much with finding errors in my html code because of the colors.

TextEdit isn't always that great for opening & editing code. I'd recommend you try out TextWrangler or Atom. I like both, but I use TextWrangler a lot.

Notepad++ rocks.
Notepad++ is not available on Mac (unless you use Wine).
