text editor wars.

because text editors are just as important as browsers.

gedit:
- pros: tabs [!!!!], syntax highlighting
- cons: none that i care about.

notepad:
- pros: it's a text editor?
- cons: lack of features.

notepad2:
- pros: syntax highlighting, line numbering, organized interface, find/replace
- cons: no tabs?

emacs:
- um.

opera:
- pros: passes acid2 test.
- cons: slower than safari, bloated, has ads in the browser, costs money, proprietary, shoves a lot of useless features in your face [blog and my opera? no thanks], copied apple with the widgets, no text editor.

Lol, ancient Unix tools user. ANY decent modern editor does regular expression search and substitute. Examples include Kate (KDE, free), Ultra-Edit (Windows, commercial) and PSPad (Windows, free). The last supports Perl-compatible regular expressions with extra features as well.
