I like edsharp, which was written by Jamal and is accessible.  It caters to 
programming tasks.
I have also heard of notetab, textpad, ultraedit, boxer and perhaps more I 
don't remember. These all are particularly suited to programming tasks.
Checkout inthane's grabbag and jamal's empowermentzone.com site for more.
Or the www.nonvisualdevelopment.org site.
Inthane -- I can't find my link to your grabbag. Can you send the link?
Thx.
Happy editing.

Subject: Quest for the Perfect Text Editor


Hi list,
I'm looking for some great programmer's text editors that are
compattible with NVDA and/or JAWS. Since the latest NVDA seems to have
some significant improvements over previous versions, I was wondering
which text editors might now also become compattible with NVDA. It would
actualy be a good idea to setup a few pages with tables comparing how
well each editor works with all the diferent screen readers. Such a
comparison database would be a great idea for a one stop refernce for
many kinds of applications, but I thought the most important one for a
programmer is definately a good text editor.

Would other members on this list be interested in and/or willing to
assist in compiling such a database?

I think it could save a lot of time and effort for all of us if there
could be a one stop database with profiles of useful applications,
categorised by the job they perform and how well they perform that job.
To start off, it could be limited to apps useful to programmers and text
editors in particular.

Regards.
