No Geany ? I love this editor. It's supports most languages(syntax) has some default compile-hotkeys for most languages.. Doesn't feel as clunky-slow as full-ID

Geany uses Scintilla, which is what is used by Notepad++, so it should roughly the same.

  Except that Notepad++ is running in wine - which much as I think wine is awesome is not perfect. You don't know if a pathological case (e.g. the result for Rehighlight test) is Notepad++ or wine.

    Wine is often faster than Windows. Some things that require a context switch on Windows are executed in-process on Wine. Everything else is userspace load. There's no reason why the same code on the same processor running in a straight line would perform any differently.

      In general yes. I did mention that I think wine is awesome. But it has bugs and the windows APIs it translates are tricky. I assume that the behavior in the re-highlight test is due to a bug. We don't know if this is due to bug in wine or a bug in notepad++.

CTRL + F'd to see if anyone else had mentioned Geany. The fact that it is cross platform as well as having great performance made it my go to. I use it on my underpowered Lubuntu laptop and my beefy Win i7 workstation.
