I haven't heard of CudaText before, I'll check it out, thanks! I'm familiar with Kate, and it works fine but I have to spend more time getting it the way I want it than I do with Geany so I usually just install the latter. My needs are modest compared to most sysadmin and developer types, so (as with Geany and N++) I don't use the bulk of its features. I tried out Sublime Text when I was using a Mac as my main workstation, but it didn't jive with my workflow so I stayed with TextWrangler on that platform. I've since stopped using my Mac for anything other than experimenting with music production (I don't like the direction the OS is going these days) so a text editor is less of a concern there.
