Top 9 Python text-editor Projects

novelWriter
novelWriter is an open source plain text editor designed for writing novels. It supports a minimal markdown-like syntax for formatting text. It is written with Python 3 (3.7+) and Qt 5 (5.3+) for cross-platform support.
Also, have you tried book writing software like https://novelwriter.io/ ? This one is FOSS, supports markdown, features to organize, cross-reference, etc.

I'm sure that vi and Emacs will happily do this and more, but I'm hoping for something a little lighter in weight. ci_edit nearly fits the bill, except it doesn't show a word count, and I thought I would ask first before trying to patch it.

simple-console-editor
sce -- minimalist console editor (no highlighting, no plugins, no modes, no Emacs)
Project mention: Show HN: TopSpace – Scroll above the top line in Emacs | news.ycombinator.com | 2022-02-21Indeed it is a nice feature! It's useful not only with large monitors, but also when one needs to visually compare two snippets that appear in two files at different offsets close to the beginning / end.
Although I haven't seen it implemented before -- granted I don't often investigate text editors -- some editors / pagers (`vim`, `less`, Sublime?, etc.) support keeping a number of lines always visible between the cursor and the top / bottom of the view; some also support keeping the cursor always centered vertically. But as said, none of them seem to support scrolling past the beginning of the file.
BTW, I've just "stolen" your idea and implemented in my own Python-based editor (<https://github.com/volution/simple-console-editor>).
Thanks! :)
