Loper · Developers

Open .ini files on your Mac.

.ini .cfg

The classic settings file: [sections] in one color, keys and values in others, comments dimmed.

Loper is a free, minimal editor for macOS that opens INI configuration instantly and colors every part of the file, so you find the value you need at a glance and can fix it right there. No IDE, no project to load, no gray wall of text.
