medit (formerly mooedit) is an open source and multi-platform application designed from the ground up to be used by developers and programmers who are looking for a comfortable way to write code.

In other words, it is an easy-to-use programmer’s text editor that was initially developed as a built-in editor component for the GGAP project, which provides users with a GUI front-end for the GAP (Groups, Algorithms, Programming) computer algebra system.
