[WEB4LIB] Choosing Web Editors

[TMGB]

I, like others have mentioned, do most of my html editing in EditPad (
http://www.jgsoft.com - Postcardware) a notepad replacement that let's
you open multiple documents and set default extensions in the open file
menu.  I really like it's search and replace feature in that you can
search for \n \t , newlines and tabs; these are the only two I've
tried.  With several documents open you can search and replace the
current doc or all docs.  This is useful for URLs sometimes especially
if you have to change servers and don't use relative links.  But often,
to do a page quick I will sometimes use Macromedia's Dreamweaver.  If an
option I want isn't readily available, I choose ExternalEditor from the
menu and go into my external editor EditPad.

And then on unix I use 'vi' :-)
