I've used vim for a number of years now -- it's freely available from
http://www.vim.org
and implements all of "standard" vi plus a number of handy extensions.
One of these is syntax highlighting for a surprisingly wide range of
notations, including HTML and REBOL.
I'm currently running gVim (version 5.5) on my wintel boxes, and it
does a decent job of comprimising between the keyboard-oriented
heritage of vi and the GUI-oriented nature of most windows-oriented
applications.
(I didn't know it did syntax highlighting for REBOL until the first
time I opened up a *.r file. It took me a couple of minutes to get
my jaw back up off the floor.)
