No, edlin is the best. You will find it on any dos/windows since dos was invented. You just have to learn one editor and it will always be available on any computer in front of you - no download from internet, no upgrades, no patches - it's just ready ......

I have a setup description to MapBasic on my half dead site http://www.lanstorp.com under link ultraedit, not only excellent for mapbasic kode, but also a very good text editor. If you have problems with the setup you welcome to mail me. Ultraedit is one on the three applications I want with me in the grave. The two others are not yet decided.

Up until now I have been a native Mapbasic user stubling through. I am testing out a couple of text Editors with Syntax Highlighting and Custom Commands to activate the Mapbasic Compiler when required. I would like to know of anyone has any recommendations of this type of software they use.
