Project - TextEditor
Project Description
It is a Text Editor which is useful for writing text documents and saving them.
Project Functionalities
It has the following functionalities :
• It can edit the text in the given text file.
• It can format the text like changing the size of letters,Bold,Italic.
• It can undo and redo the edits made by the user.
• It can also do spell check, auto complete and search a specific word.
• As a later part we would do the find and replace and also different format of letters
like TimesNewRoman etc.
Implementation Details
• The editor can perform all the basic jobs like Open,Edit,Save,Save As etc.
• Used JEditorPane to edit text and tabs were implemented using JTabbedPane.
• We can change the font styles,sizes and make it bold,italic and underlined although
we are unable to encode and save them. We used the java in-built GraphicsEnviron-
ment library to do it.
• We have implemented undo and redo by using undo Manager in java.
• We have used the Damerau - Levenshtein Distance as the edit distance between two
strings. We have used BKTrees to search through the Dictionary.
• We have used Trie which is constructed dynamically from the file and gives sugges-
tion.
• We have also implemented Find and Replace by naive search and also added a edit
bar.
• We have also added KeyBindings and Accelerators. KeyBindings are added for closing
and shifting through tabs.
• Threading is also implemented for Dynamic Trie construction and initial BKTree
construction from Dictionary.
