UltraEdit is a pretty adequate text editor if one is willing to do some minor configuration. It took me only 30 mins to master it.

A txt editor is like most tools, one has to customize it to their needs and wants.

The sword does not make the samurai. It is the samurai that makes the sword go. (General View)

I've been using UltraEdit for about 8 years now. Notepad++ is close, but the FTP plug-in just isn't quite as good (I use FTP a lot through my text editor and UltraEdit is the best). The best features of UltraEdit are it's macro recording and template (ie: code snippets) feature.
