Behave.js is a lightweight JavaScript library which allows you to augment plain HTML text areas to have IDE-like behavior.
Behave.js includes several features as listed below:
- Replace Tab – Pressing the tab key will insert a tab character in the text area instead of cycling through control on the page.
- Soft Tabs – Instead of using the tab character to denote tabs, spaces are used instead, with the ability to set the soft tabs size.
- Auto Open - Behave.js automatically inserts closing counterpart characters for ( { [ “ and ‘.
- Overwrite Closing Characters – If you type a closing character immediately preceding the same character, one of the duplicate characters is deleted.
- Auto Strip – If the cursor is placed between two paired characters, pressing backspace to delete the first character results in both characters to be deleted.
- Auto Indent – Using this option allows Behave.js to auto indent your code.
Naturally, all of the above options are optional and can be activated and deactivated as required.
