Hello, everyone!
Surfing around the Net, looking for a (possible) alternative to the Java based IDEs/editors, I've found E - TextEditor (http://www.e-texteditor.com/). It's supposed to be TextMate for Windows :-) Has anyone tried it (it's fully functional for 30 days)? I am not sure if the editor's worth installing since it's using cygwin - heard stories of cygwin messing up the systems.

Just testing now the latest version, very good app.
Some of the good features 'stolen' from TextMate, the same themes and snippets.

There's free alternative called Intype, but it is alpha and still developing.

Did you have to install a lot of cygwin modules in order for E to work?

I don't know how many, but the installation is automatic.

I've used e a bit, and really like it. I never did install the cygwin stuff, but e was 80% functional without it.
