LOL. Still using Notepad...

I never really liked notepad much, its limitations where just too great. Before I found Crimson Editor and Notepad++, I would just use MS-Dos Edit(a.k.a QBasic).

Yup, notepad has a lot of limitation. But since I'm not a programmer anymore, I don't find the need to use anything more than notepad.

Really depends on what I'm doing.....for html I use Dreamweaver, for programming I use VB, for Java I use Eclipse, for writing bullshit like this I use anything that's in front of me

Ahem.

Vi or Vim?

I trust you realize they're different and on many modern systems, vi is aliased to vim

I for one can't stand using vi for longer than 10 minutes. But vim.. yes, even on my sweet little powerbook with all the fancy text editors, I still use vim almost every other day.

TextMate's my other favourite.
