Yes. TextEdit is the best and comes bundled with OSX.


If you want to make it without any text formatting, go to menu “Format > Make Plain Text” (or shortcut ‘Command+Shift+T”.


You can also set this non-formatting as default everytime you launch this app. Go to “Preferences” > under ‘Format’ > choose “Plain Text”.
