I'm frusterated with GEdit. No regex search and replace, tabbing requires ctl+t, ugg. And there's no block select mode. I really miss TextPad since switching to Linux.

So far I like Kate the best, but it's dog slow to open. Someday I should bite the bullet and learn VIM I guess.

Start today, it's an investment that will pay off big in the long run.
