A sibling for the Favorite Writing Program thread, what is you favorite editor for programing, scripting, html, etc.

I like EditPad Lite a lot, especially for html, most of my, temporarily defunct, website was done with it. I tried EditPad Pro, but it is more of an IDE than an editor and more that I needed. The extra features just got in my way.

I vote for vim, gvim or gedit.
OpenOffice if I need something fancy.

Typically ends up being vi.  But if I am in front of my Mac, I make it a point of using TextMate for any coding

For the little bit of Python code I sling for myself, I use IDLE for that... but for everything else...

I like Notepad++ on Windows.

So far, all I've used on Mac for text editing is TextEdit.app. :o

And, on Linux, I typically use nano (I usually use Linux boxes by SSHing into them, and I don't care for vim, so...)

Emacs, although I don't have problems using vi either.

On really slow lines I sometimes use ed :)

Not funny.  I had to use "ed" (equivalent UNIX line editor) on a semi-broken UNICOS box and it was not fun (no other editor was available in the system's handicapped state).

If I'm on Mac OS X, I usually use TextMate for smaller jobs (typically scripts in Perl or shell), especially if I'm going to be working for a while.  For super-quick edits, particularly when I'm working from the CLI, I'll use nedit or vi.

For projects of larger size (usually C++ or Java), I use Xcode on Mac OS X, and Eclipse on Linux/Solaris.

I also do a fair amount of programming in R, of which the Mac front-end has a built-in text editor, which is okay.  Sometimes I'll use that, other times I'll just use TextEdit.

In a long-begotten (but fondly remembered) part of my past, I used to code for SGIs with Irix 5.3 through 6.5.  I used nedit for quick work, and ProDev for larger, more complex projects.

For windows development, Visual Studio .NET is the best IDE on the planet. For none windows, Netbeans rocks for Java and Ruby development (and python dev capability will be coming soon).

XCode is a kick ass IDE. Although I don't do objective-C development XCode should be a pretty nice IDE when Apple is done with the MacRuby project.

gvim/vim/vi for me, on all the OS's,

unless I happen to be at work and feeling lazy in which case I might use textwrangler, it's pretty awesome and free :)

For big jobs, I use SlickEdit.  Otherwise, it depends on where I'm at and what my mood is.  If I'm at a terminal window, I'm likely to use emacs.  If not, I'll pop open TextMate.  I write a lot of LaTeX in TextMate.  Recently, I've been using vim a lot too.  I'm finding I like modal editing of vim over the multi-key combinations of emacs.  Plus, no emacs pinky!  I really couldn't get used to vim's default cursor keys (h, j, k, l), so I mapped instead an inverted T on i, j, k, l.

I agree with Korbin, On Windows Visual Studio can't be beat.  Bigpook is right about linux though, Gedit is my favorite. (That's odd Firefox says the American spelling of favorite is incorrect...)

since I remapped caps to another ctrl my emacs pinky has gone away, also if you still want the power of emacs you could just use viper mode...
