Hidemaru (Japanese: 秀丸) is a fast, lightweight text editor for Microsoft Windows, developed by Saito-Kikaku Co., Ltd. (有限会社サイトー企画). Long popular in Japan among developers and power users, it emphasizes speed, reliability, and deep customization for both coding and general text work.

Key capabilities:

  • Performance and stability: very quick startup and responsive editing, even with very large files.
  • Rich editing tools: syntax highlighting, code folding, bookmarks, split views, and rectangular (column) selection.
  • Powerful search: advanced find/replace with regular expressions and built-in multi-file Grep across folders.
  • Automation: a robust macro language (Hidemaru Macro) for scripting, recording repetitive tasks, and integrating external tools.
  • Customization: flexible keybindings, menus, and UI behavior tailored to individual workflows.
  • Encoding and newline control: comprehensive support for Unicode and legacy Japanese encodings (e.g., Shift_JIS, EUC), plus CRLF/LF handling.
  • Developer-friendly touches: bracket matching, indentation options, and convenient navigation of compiler or tool output.

Hidemaru is distributed as shareware with a free trial; a paid license is required for continued use. It remains a go-to editor on Windows for users who value speed, precision, and extensive configurability.
