All right all you 1337 h4x0rs out there come tell us what your favourite text editor is besides notepad that is Mine is crimson editor in windows and old school vi in a unix system
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.
BTW: to replace win's notepad by notepad2, you have to use some kind of ninja's trick: http://www.liquidninja.com/metapad/faq.html#Q28
Yeap me knows i still think everyone should learn vi instead of those fancy text editors. I for one cant stand emacs, have no idea what how to use it. Although the key strokes are a lot like GNU screen
Yup... that's the best there is. But hahha super expensive But this one looks interesting too: ML Marker: http://symbolclick.com/ As for my fav text editor? I'd have to say Ultraedit.
Heh yeah, I love vi too, but I love vim better. emacs.. grr, just can't get used to Ctrl-blah Ctrl-blah all the time. Just to exit is Ctrl-X Ctrl-C and goodness knows what other complicated Ctrl-combos, wheras vi is simple :<something> for almost everything
Exactly what i was thinking, i need to start configuring my key maps in my vimrc file, still havent gotten to that...too lazy
