I'm interested in knowing what editor the people on these fora like.

I, for one, use nano on the command line, with multiple buffers enabled.

So, what editor do you use?

I'm using gedit. It does what I want it to do: syntax highlighting, proper indentation, replace- and search facilities, and of course, tabs.

I also tend to use vim when I've to get some work done quickly in the terminal, or edit some files fast. It does also have support for the things I mentioned above.

I use jEdit on windows, Kate on linux. jEdit has the most flexible regular expression support I've found, which lets me do a LOT more than most editors.

I love the Visual Studio Express editions for .NET - Visual Studio 2008 Express Editions. I like the way their Web Developer looks just like them - I feel at home. Plus, IntelliSense, great file management, database connectivity... the lot.

Depends what I'm doing. Usually I use TextPad or Notepad.

VS makes things so much easier for code writing, and VWD... well, I've said enough about VWD.

I use Dev-Cpp and Code::Blocks for anything lengthy, and Quincy 2005 for short stuff.

My favorites are vi/vim and Notepad2. VS isn't a bad IDE and I like Netbeans for Java. For PHP I started using Zend Studio.

Notepad++ isn't bad either. Do they support tabs yet?

Notepad++ has supported tabs for a long time.
