Mini Text is an ephemeral text editor. It doesn't save your text to files and doesn't allow for complex formatting. It's for writing thoughts down quickly - your digital scratchpad. Most useful after turning on "Always on Top" for the window. For somewhere to save your ideas, to write down something quickly and without fuss, try Mini Text!
Shout out to Text Pieces! I needed to URL-encode a big ugly string (creating a template form from URL parameters, yay!) and yep, sure enough, it made it stupidly easy.
The next time you need to encode, transform, or convert some text on Linux, reach for this pretty little offline app instead of pasting your data into some random website. 👍
