What’s your favorite programming editor?

Intype. It is by far the coolest editor I have ever worked with. Maybe not the best, but that’s because Intype is still in the early stage of development (current release is 0.3). It already carries some amazing features. You can create your own color theme or download other peoples’ themes. I have downloaded a few, switched around between them and they are amazing. Personally, I prefer to write on a black background, I find it easier on the eyes especially after long hours. Intype was inspired by the famous Mac editor, TextMate.

Some Intype features include tabs, line and column counts, language parsing selector. I have been using it ever since it was first released to testers and the improvements are outstanding. Testers have helped improve Intype by listing some feature requests at the Intype forum. This little app is free to download and use during the alpha and beta development phases, but once it reaches release 1.0 it will be priced similarly to TextMate.

Intype will cost between $25 to $45 (€20 to €35). One license will be valid for one version of Intype and all updates for this version (for example version 1.0 with updates until version 1.9).

There are many other Windows text editors, some of the most popular include TextPad, Notepad++, Programmer’s Notepad, Notepad 2, Crimson Editor, Zulupad, JujuEdit, TopStyle, EditPlus and a whole lot more.

What’s your favorite programming text editor? What’s the feature you love most?
