I mostly use jEdit.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jedit
nice colored and customizable highlighting and a lot of features which
can be added.

For simple tasks gedit, in terminal nano.

There was a lilypondtool-plugin for jEdit warranting LilyPond-specific
highlighting and autocompletition, though the developer stopped work
on it. Last release was 12.1.2010, afaict. He posted it on this list,
too lazy to search it, though.

Honestly, the LilyPondTool was always a little buggy and I rarely
needed it, but I love the jEdit-way ;)

Cheers,
  Harm
