Code Editor
HSYCO integrates an editor for EVENTS code and JavaScript, which can also be used as a text file editor for .txt, .ini files, or standard formats such as XML and JSON.
The wizard screen allows you to either open or create a new EVENTS file within the events folder, or open a generic file.
List of compatible formats:
- .txt
- .ini
- .xml
- .json
- .hsm
- .log
- .js
- .java
- .csv
- .html
- .md
- .css
