### 5/5 — 日常利用に必要十分。最高。

*2026-05-28, version 1.12*

この軽さでこの機能、価格も年額480。自分の利用なら無料でも全然足りますが、このプロダクトに支払わなくてどうすると、利用継続したい意思表示で課金しました。

とにかく長文を書いて貼るだけのことがiPhoneではシンプルに処理できない。よくあるエディタの全てが重い。11MB少し。テキスト書いて保存できる、フォントもフォントサイズも変えられる。見やすい、使いやすい。簡易な編集が早い。

それ以上のことはそれ以上のものですればいいのだと考えているのもあり、とにかくiCloudにぽんぽん長文テキストを不自由なく書き込んで放り投げて置けるのでストレス減りました。

まさか伝説のJeditがひっそりApp Storeにあるなんて私も思いませんでしたよ。広まってないのが信じられない。メモ帳では生活できなかったので今まであれこれ工夫して苦労していました、ありがとうございます。
長く使わせてもらいたいものです。よろしくお願いします。

### 3/5 — PCライクなエディタ

*2023-12-15, version 1.02*

どんなに探しても、iPad OSローカルのルールに縛られたエディタしかないので半ば諦めていたのですが、まさかJeditがあったとは。しかも半年以上前から。自らの不明を恥じいるばかりです。

ところで自分がわかっていないだけなのだと思うのですが、１行の文字数を設定するにはどうすればいいのでしょうか。強制改行を使うのかと思ったのですが、これをやるとrtfファイルは10数文字で改行された状態で固定されてしまい（自分の扱う文書のせいかもしれませんが）、通常のテキストは行頭に全角スペースが強制的に挿入されてしまいます（段落頭に全角スペースが入っているので、オートインデントでそうなっているのかと思うのですが、オートインデントを解除する方法も見つけられません。
これさえあれば、iPad唯一の弱点である長文を書きにくいという点がクリアされるのですが、この２点で困っております。
よろしくお願いいたします。
