Personally, I've been using PSPad for 4 years (primary for HTML+CSS) - it's far from perfect, but I couldn't find a 100% replacement for for it. I've tried over 20 editors - but I'm still using PSPad.
I don't know why there're so many fans of NP++ cause there're lots of better alternatives (imho). Yeah, it's a bit faster, smoother, has better charset-support and code-folding - well that's the only advantages I found for myself.
The better alternatives were:
- RJ TextEditor (it's very functional as-is, without any extensions, though it's a bit "messy")
- Webuilder (another very powerful editor, but it's paid and doesn't have some functions which PSPad has, i.e. Comparision Tool )
- Scriptly (not bad at all, though it's less functional than the editors above and it has only the small german-speaking community, so it's kinda difficult to find any answers)
- Geany (it's more basic, but it's very fast and smooth)
(unfortunately, all of them don't support Zen-Coding which PSPad and NP++ does). The other editors I've tried (Vim, CoffeeCup, HateML, TopStyle, EmEditor, Komodo Edit, BlueFish, HTML-Kit, Emacs, jEdit, UltraEdit and some others) were worse yet for my demands comparing to PSPad. After all, the features I miss most in PSPad are:
- advanced color chooser (WB, RJTE)
- advanced preview (RJTE, WeBuilder)
- advanced charset support (NP++, WB)
- clickable links (Geany, RJ TE)
- code folding (NP++, Geany, RJTE) But for me PSPad is the best editor for the moment.
