There's an argument to be had for sticking to what you already use and love,
and making that work better.  I personally tried a few, and had used the sci
editor in the past on windows, but gravitated back to my editpadpro.  I then
found ways to get an imperfect syntax highlighter going - they provide a
regular expr tool interface and now it handles nested [ & {, highlights the
first word after a : at the beginning of line, pulls attention to strings,
and bolds out the operators like cleave and bi that are so common.  That was
enough to get it out of the way for now.  I did just find out how to get a
clickable link to the offending file when an autouse triggers an additional
file, and that's made things more fun as well.  Did you know that if you're
in the error browser, clicking a particular error will focus you to that
line in some editors, editpadpro included?  You can try it for free; I've
been using it since it was made.  http://www.editpadpro.com/
