I use SciTE.

I do not edit Csound score files, except very very occasionally.

However, I do edit Python scripts and Csound orchestras. SciTE has syntax 
coloring modes for both, and it is easy to toggle back and forth between the 
Csound mode and the Python mode (useful because I embed the Csound files 
right in the Python script that generates the score). SciTE also will run 
either Python or csd files at the press of the F5 key and, unlike some other 
editors, can kill Csound without leaving a zombie.

Regards,
Mike

I recently looked at emacs & was put off by the fact that i coudn't set the
font type to something readable on an LCD screen. Courier is too thin, & so
were all the other available options. 

This was on my ubuntu 7.1 machine - Can Emacs display it's text using one of
the "regular" fonts (ie whose aesthetic & inception is possibly dated
sometime after 1965 / increase visibility on an LCD like arial or
something?)

On windows I use scite.

While we are talking informally on one of the usual topics of regurgetation
(editors) my Linux audio plans have unfortunately come to a (hopefully
temporary) screaming halt on account of the fact that i can presently not
access ADSL or ADSL2 from my enclave in suburban adelaide. 

Once again it seems all those thatcherite economic theories of free market
driven infrastructure delivering beyond our wildest expectations have proved
to be a worthless pile of self serving drivel. So here I am dialed up on
windows 2000 still.... frustrating, if not for the fact i'm kind of used to
it.

On the upside, my csound & python designs continue to develop, & something
vaguely musical threatens to ensue, oooh, any month now really (i started
with this in Dec 2006... thank god i'm both patient & obsessed & don't have
a full time job...)

this better be worth it Dr B! ; )
