Where Marlin Developer's Bench is built to stream multi-gigabyte server logs and hex files, roono crafts book manuscripts, and Verso manages Markdown libraries, Linen Editor is your daily lightweight text workbench. Untitled scratches save themselves without a save dialog, sticky notes anchor directly to specific lines or float on your desktop, and Command-K gives fast access to split editor panes, live diff, multiple cursors, and rendered Markdown or HTML preview. Scratches sync through iCloud and show in Spotlight, Shortcuts actions and linen:// links capture text from anywhere, and Find in Folder answers as you type. A native, agile Mac editor that never interrupts your flow. Free to download and use on Mac.
