    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

      ClientCo uses Visual SlickEdit. It is not good.

          I use notepad++ for most things and editpad pro for regex testing.

            Those running RISC OS on their Raspberry Pis should get themselves a copy of Zap, which I remember as being extremely fine (although it's nearly twenty years since I last used it).

            I've been using TextWrangler a bit on the Mac lately for things like server config files, though I use Eclipse for most development work. Straightforward text editing just gets done in TextEdit.

              As all mentioned above. PFE for programming, Texpad for all sorts of notes, Notepad++ for code snippets. Good thing about last two is you can use simple macros to create an index at the top of each page.

                gvim or onenote, depending on if I'm editing something or taking notes.
                While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'
