Your editor seems popular, free, cross-platform and capable ... if you already know it well, I can't see why you should switch. Unless you're truly not productive in SciTE, but I'd have to watch you use it for hours to tell. (That should really be a new job title. Just as there are aerobics instructors or whatever at the gyms to help you use the equipment there safely and efficiently, there should be text editor instructors!) /Jorgen -- // Jorgen Grahn <grahn@ Oo o. . . \X/ snipabacken.se> O o . -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
