looking for a good text editor...

[quarantine]

Got a bit fed up of using notepad/simpletext and am looking for the next step in text editors.
I have tried a few: texturizer, phpedit, ultraedit, etc.

I would like colour coding for at least html,css,javascript and php and anything else is a bonus.Oh and line numbers.

Is there anything anyone would recommend?

I tried HTML Kit but didnt think it was very good. Ive tried so many programs recently I can't remember off hand why I disliked it though...

TSW Webpad International

Now that looks like the one.
built in ftp as well!

Yeah TSW WebCoder 5 looks great! Ill just test it for a few hours and then register it (which is free anyway!)

crimson editor looks like it's written by the same person who writes editplus, or crimson editor decided to copy editplus almost feature for feature, hard to tell, identical search interface for example, except crimson editor doesn't support multiple line search and replace :(, this is where most text editors fail from my experience, and is why I can't give up editplus.

However, for a free html editor crimson editor looks really good, for pay ones though I'd vote for editplus. HTML-KIT, don't know, too bloated, lack of attention to some core features while piling on tons of less core features. Might as well use dreamweaver...

On the Mac I'm using a new open source editor called Smultron. Despite the funny name, it rocks! I'm using it more and more over BBEdit. Heresy, I know.

On Windows, I am partial to EditPlus 2. Great builtin FTP support. I've grown accustomed to its syntax highlighting too.
