What's Your Favorite Text Editor?
What do the TFP'ers have to say about text editors?
my preference has always been Unix: vim win32: textpad I've recently given up textpad for gvim on win32 and am very happy with the results. |
I use textpad for editing code, but I use just plain ole notepad for writing notes to myself. If I'm forced to use linux, I like pico.
|
I like vi in Unix but I can never remember any of the commands. In windows I have a tendency to use wordpad/notepad but I am thinking of switching to something that actually works well.
|
UltraEdit is my favorite text editor-unless I'm doing Java stuff then I prefer TextPad only because of the ability to compile and run the code from there.

try u some gvim goodness
Quote:
gvim It has the hands on feel like the unix version with the clikity-clikness of windows. |
Even in Windows, I stull use MS Edit
|
Gvim is where it's at! Oh and Vim in *nix
|

Another vote for UltraEdit right here.
So many useful tools in that application, plus it's cheap. |
vim in Unix, VisualSlickEdit in Winders
|
boxer as a text only editor, devstudio for code
emacs for unix microemacs for when i forget i like boxer |
UltraEdit when using Windows and Emacs when under linux
|
in linux I use nano. It's light, and it's easy for me to remember the basic commands. It helps that they are listed on the bottom of the screen.
In windows, I use textpad or note pad if I'm just doing something small. |
kedit on my Linux box.
|
BBEdit or vim depending on my mood.
|
TextPad

Vim on Linux, vi on Unix, EditPadLite on Wonders.
Just installed gvim on my Win2k box. I'll have to try that -- I've been using vim in Cygwin too. |
word baby
|
word == teh crappy! depends on what I'm doing.
java == vim on X, textpad on XP C++ == ProjectBuilder on X, MS's IDE on XP HW == textedit on X, textpad/wordpad on XP |
I use Notepad for almost everything. Personal notes, reminders, jokes, small reports, statistics, web-URLS, almost anything.
Its small, has a tiny memory footprint, and works well. |
Chalk up another UltraEdit :)
*edit* Gonna give gvim a try, I used to love vi back when I worked with unix but i think i may find it hard to go back now, its been a long time ;0 |
BBEdit or vim, depends if my mousing hand is playing up.
|
On linux, I am using nano/pico
on my windows side, when I had it, i used Professional/Programmer File Editor 32. Nifty little program. |
Linux: Nedit
Windows: UltraEdit FRIGGIN RULEZ Anything that synxax-colors my Perl is all right by me. |
Linux console: nano
Linux GUI: kwrite Windows: notepad |
Windows: EditPad
|
vi
|
Windows: Notepad
Mac OS X: BBEdit Unix: pico |
Vim, becuase I need an editor, not an OS (referring to emacs, for those of you who've never heard a comment like that before).
|
TextPad for me. Best thing out there to help beginners with web building!
|
I use gvim on linux (home) and windows (work)
|
In linux I use vi when I'm stuck to a console, kwrite when I'm not (haven't used linux for a year or two). In windows it's UltraEdit.
|
I use a program call WordPerfect for writing essays. It works great, but nobody else has it, so I can never send my files to other people.
|
Notepad baby! all the way!!! but i am going to give this gVim thing a try.... I've tried UEdit, works great but the crack for it sucks so i stopped using it, Also it seemed more powerful than I needed cause i don't really need to do anything with hex... but it does c code and html which is really cool.
|
BBEdit, all the way. www.barebones.com

Back to the thread, I'm with the people who use notepad in windows (there is just something about simple text files that most non-computer people don't understand). |
oh yes WP 5.1 my god, what was it to quite ALT-F7 or something, damn I must have had like over 100 key combinations in my head over the past years ...
if find it strange that so few use emacs ??? it's the most powerfulll editor out there imo, but the learning curve isn't that easy :-( ps: it even has games in it :-) |
Cetus CWORDPAD 3.0 and its FREEWARE
|
vi for linux if I could just remember the commands. Kwrite if I'm lazy.
