Hello

You can use Notepad++. It's Notepad with additional features like syntax highlighting, grouping text etc. It is primarily designed for programmers and programming languages but you can use it for other purposes like text writing. Notepad++ has a lot of options which you can change to make your writing experience confortable.

You can download it from here: https://notepad-plus-plus.org/

I hope I helped.

If you want a text editor program with syntax highlighting support then you should go for Notepad++. I’m also using it sometimes when viewing or editing text files but most of the time I use it on HTML documents when creating my HTML file. This text editor is a free source code editor and can also be used as a Notepad replacement.

It supports many different programming languages for its syntax highlighting feature such as ActionScript, ASP, Assembly, AutoIt, C, C#, C++, COBOL, CSS, Fortran, HTML, Caml, Java, JavaScript, JSON, JSP, Matlab, Pascal, Perl, PHP, PostScript, PowerShell, Python, Ruby, SQL, TCL, TeX, Visual Basic, XML, and others. Its powerful editing component is based on Scintilla. Notepad++ is written in C++ programming language and uses Win32 API and STL.

If you want to try it, go to Notepad++ Free Source Code Editor.
