The biggest problem I have with anything written in Java is the long startup time. The editor may be great but the platform is mediocre. I am a SciTE bigot. I have recently tried SPE and UliPad. UliPad would be my second choice and is still installed, but SPE was quickly removed. One feature I like about SciTE is being able to position the cursor anywhere on a word and hit CTL-F to find the NEXT occurrence. With UliPad, you have to select the entire word you want to search for, and then when you hit CTL-F -- it first finds the same occurrence you selected -- you have to hit F3 to find the next. I think SciTE is better engineered. Still, much of your choice is personal preference. I have noticed that any two people using the same editor will use different keystroke and mouse sequences when presented with similar editing problems. Good discussion - I thank the originator of the thread. Roger -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
