Don't forget that on OS X you would find Textmate, which has no match yet. On windows the best editor would be Notepad++. But nothing comes closer to Textmate.

If you wish to save some money, then better got for a PC.
- avinashv 18y agoThat's quite an opinion you've thrown there. I run OS X and refuse to use anything but Vim--but I'm not going to try convince developers to switch. I think it's a little ridiculous (even though I'm sure it happens) to switch to an operating system exclusively for Textmate... I'm not saying you're necessarily wrong, but it's completely unreasonable to say Textmate has "no match yet". And, for the record, yes, I do own a copy of Textmate, and wasn't happy with it after several months of usage and went back to Vim. MacVim is my editor now.
- jlees 18y agoI use Komodo for Python on Mac as well. It's really nice. Plus you can always drop into vim when needed. Doing it all on Windows just feels wrong to me after years of Mac use ;-)
- rit 18y agoWhen I changed jobs last year, I briefly was at a place where all developers were on Windows (After 2 years of having a Mac at work). I started digging around, and there's a Windows "clone" of Textmate which is built to also fully support TextMate Plugin Bundles. I used it for awhile, and it's pretty good. It's called "E" - http://www.e-texteditor.com/ http://www.e-texteditor.com/ I still prefer TextMate, but if stuck on Windows, E is pretty nice for getting close in editor.
