Text editor(s) you use

What text editors do you use?

I like NoteTab Lite, which provides helpful stuff for autocorrect, HTML, email, CSS1, Euro, FTP, Smilies and much more.

I'd REALLY like to find a text editor that has stuff for UBB. Haven't found one yet. (Yes, I know, HTML is more important to know and I know it..) Sometimes UBB is "handy"

Have a look at UltraEdit. I haven't used it but several of the developers I support do.

Emacs baby. VI sucks.

Actually I use VI at the console and PFE on windows. I hate bloated programs that try to do everything for you.

Crimson Editor.

It has tab support, support for many languages via plug-ins, and a pretty slick UI. It's also freeware.

Notepad. I'm more interested in loading speed. I use a development IDE (Codewright) for things like ASP, CSS, and html.

Most stuff I use:
Windows = UltraEdit
Linux/X = Quanta Plus
Linux/console = vi

Quanta is pretty nifty indeed.

Xemacs

vi is okay, though I really don't like the "command mode" thing.

I use it sometimes though, on my friend's computer.

notepad, emacs, and .NET's IDE.

LOL! All you programming noobs and your pretty editors ... I've been using vi for 23 years ... It rocks.

I'm still going to have to reiterate Crimson Editor. I love it.

Using Crimson Editor primarily after learning about it on here (thanks!). I had been looking for something that would color-code PHP.
