Compared to the traditional text editor, CryptoTE integrates strong cryptography in its native syntax. Its underlying technology is the Scintilla widget, which automatically stores text data in a secure encrypted container file. To use CryptoTE, you need to install the free GnuPG public key/private key encryption application, which is also available on the web. The most important part of key generation is selecting a passphrase or password.

Unlike most text editors, CryptoTE encrypts text data automatically into secure container files. It uses 256-bit encryption to protect your data and does not require any data structure. It also works with plain ASCII text and transparently performs encryption using the Serpent cipher. The user interface is designed for speed and ease of use. It features multiple subfiles, a two-click random password generator, and multiple-file capabilities.

In addition to its powerful encryption capabilities, CryptoTE is easy to use. The free version of the application comes with many useful features, including customizable fonts, a history and an archive. With its flexible and intuitive interface, you can focus on writing and coding rather than managing notes. It is also compatible with Windows, Linux, Android, and ios. There is a version for Windows, but you'll have to install the binary package from a third-party site.
