in reply to [OT] Opinions on Programmers Notepad as Perl editor.

Looks like a fair editor. But I use the ConTEXT programmer's editor, you can get it from here -> http://www.context.cx/.

This is by far the best editor I have used (no offense to Emacs and vi users out there, of course), and I am loving it.

    My favorite editor is emacs. It's free, available for Win32 and operating systems which are unix-like, is highly customizable (embedded script language is LISP), you can use it over telnet or ssh as well as with graphical user interfaces. After having finished the built-in tutorial, it is very intuitive

    Best regards,
    perl -e "s>>*F>e=>y)\*martinF)stronat)=>print,print v8.8.8.32.11.32"

      ConTEXT is free too.

    No relation with ConTeXt, it seems... too bad: I'm not a ConTeXt user myself (good 'ol LaTeX only!) but it would be funny to edit ConTeXt under ConTEXT...
