I would suggest http://www.e-texteditor.com/ and http://intype.info/home/index.php. You can also look at those full of sh*t IDEs like Aptana, RubyMine and NetBeans, but I prefer not to use bloated software.

If you're familiar with VIM or Emacs, go for it.

But for beginners - E-TextEditor or Intype

Scite is also pretty light-weight. It's basically a text editor with syntax highlighting.

If I wasn't lazy, I'd use emacs/vim, but netbeans is what I'm on right now. It has syntax highlighting, syntax checking, and function/variable highlighting, all of which you could some how implement (maybe not so nicely) in emacs/vim. again, i'm lazy... biggrin.gif

Its not the greatest Editor around. But at the moment i use RDE.

Comes with syntax highlighting and well i find it quite useful at times. it's either that or Netbeans.
