Thanks for the links. I don't mean to start a holy war, though they are fun :) I'm looking more for a reasoned discussion of the pros and cons of different editing environments.

> though they are fun not the fifty thousandth time.

Then where are the wars archived?

Sublime Text. It has the minimap. It has multiple cursors. It has macros. It has plugins. It has color schemes. It's simple. It's beautiful. It's actively developed. It's affordable. Downsides? It's Windows only.

This looks like a great editor. It's proprietary, though. Damn.

Why is it that, as with Opera, every now and then you find an amazing program which, even more amazingly, is closed-source?

Emacs, however, offers minimap as well: http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/MiniMap

I wonder how well we did compared to Sublime.
