            TextPad is good especially if you're used to VC++-style editing but it's not quite free (WinZip-style license). Kevin

                Second this. The commands are right under your fingers. No carpal tunnel from ALT-META-CTRL-ESC.

                    I use SuperEdi for a few non .NET programmings tasks (c, large txt files). Has a function browser which makes locating functions quick and easy http://www.wolosoft.com/en/superedi/

                      Give PSPad a try, I use it almost constantly and it has some really nice tools including a basic but effective FTP client, Lorem Ipsum generator and so on. http://www.pspad.com/
