We love EmEditor, using it since many many years!
That editor is a MUST-HAVE.
Best treatment of large files on any OS. Smooth scroll, attention to detail, responsive developer... A jewel of a program. Totally worth the price.
The only thing it misses compared to sublime Text is a more active community and plain text config files. Support for 'trendy' languages (coffeeScript, clojure) is missing, but syntax files are easy to make.
You have to pay to use CSV files. Why the hell is this listed as a "free" alternative to CSVEd and ModernCSV???
This is a really nice editor but it does not support folding. Without folding editing XML, HTML is like hell.
Actually, it does. It is called Outline. Previously a plug-in, now fully integrated.

Together with "Directory Opus" the 2 main programs i always feel it was money well spend for such fantastic software.
EmEditor has almost all one thinks of regarding a text editor, extremely fast, plugins, macro's, you name it, EmEditor has it.
I think it is most powerful text editor to run for Windows. It is light and fast even for a big file. I like its unicode support. Sometimes I need to work with Japanese or Chinese or Korean, it supports perfectly fine with UFT-8 perfectly unlike some of of other text editors. The best text editor ever I have.
I rarely pay my own money for development apps (most of the tools I use are purchased by my employer for our team), but this program is so exceptionally good, I happily paid out of pocket to get this editor. I've used Notepad++, Notepad2, and other free apps, and while they each have their strong points, nothing comes even close to the quality and usefulness of EmEditor. Highly, highly recommended!
