Yup, I've been using it for years, I do all my scripting and text editing in it. Very good, especially considering it's free. The only thing I don't like is that the Find In Files function is a bit slow, compared to Textpad.
for quick editing I used: Metapad > SCITEFlash > SciTE > Notepad++ I notepad++ on all newer computers I installed because it has the most features, but I like editors like metapad for beeing so simplistic and for example making the window opaque or the favourites. When I had to work a lot with XML files I switched to SciTE…
