Recognizing that this is a religious issue among many programmers, I submit for what it is worth that I use Ultra-Edit (Windows). It has everything you ask, you can extend the syntax for color-coding, run command line programs and capture the output in a window, edit remote files via FTP, record and re-run keyboard macros, and edit in column mode, to name just the features I use frequently. The column mode is handy for cutting or inserting characters in a certain column of contiguous lines (such as placing a "#" in front of many lines at once), and tab/shift tab will indent and unindent groups of lines. Granted, emacs and others can do the same things, so you see that you have a lot of choices.
