Edit and view .txt files in drive
Would proton drive be better with a built in plain text editor? I think the answer is a resounding yes!
Plain text documents are the backbone of modern computing. This feature would allow for the quick creation and storage of information like code snippets, sensitive information, journal writing, and much more.
core features:
create new .txt
edit new .txt
preview/view .txt
rename .txt
password protect .txt
eventually:
add in line numbers
attach file to email
group/shared edit .txt file

Just to echo previous comments (and possibly bump?). Would really love this feature. (Dropbox offers it, in case that fires up any competitive sentiment from the Engineering division)

The new Docs editor is a really nice addition but on a mobile device, it still needs to use a web browser. And, my web browser comes up as "unsupported browser". A plain text editor that works within the Drive app would be a really helpful feature.

Additionally: do not create a Proton Doc file duplicate of a .txt file when opening that .txt file.

I add my comment to bump this request. Hot online editing is a must have!

I was going to post the same thing, I saw that "Robert" wrote, and exactly this feature is very important and should be added, because most of the competing companies have this, and Proton, which is ahead of many in terms of security, should not be ignored.

Very handy to have this feature. Creating/editing a simple .txt file allows ideas, notes, lists, etc. to be easily exchanged between devices.
