Yeah, I've used Textpad since 2001

Haven't really found any need to try other editors. In addition to the stuff you mentioned, I like the block select (admittedly not as useful these days since I'm mostly doing MS development and can use the Alt+Shift+LeftClick to do block selecting in VS). The search & replace with regular expressions has saved me a bundle of time.

In Windows I primarily use an IDE

It's also the only editor I've found I can use to look through 100Mb+ logs

Depends on the OS

I use pico/nano. Or the default one that comes w/ Eclipse. nt

I should've been more specific... I meant to specifically exclude IDEs and go strictly text editors nt
