Used this during a class I was teaching. It was already installed, so I just stuck with it.

My go-to editor on Windows

Ditched when I finally found vim.

Da_Nuke

Easily the most solid text editor for Windows I've ever seen. I discovered it while looking for a text editor that could highlight VHDL syntax.
