* Good spellchecking, including private and special-purpose dicts. * A re-wrap paragraph implementation that leaves lines that do not start with alphanumerics alone * support for different input encodings, notably utf-8 and iso-latinX * CRLF/LF/CR conversions * regular expression search (&replace) * configurable syntax highlighting * adjustable font size * support for large (log) files (>100MB) * rectangle selection * difference checking > Especially interested in what features in regular editors are quite > useless to have around all the time.

I use emacs almost all the time, with SciTE slowly gaining ground. SciTE is rather ok, but definately too minimalistic for my taste. These days I can do without gnus (nntp), vm (mail) and auctex, but I use dired (file management), vc (revision control), gnuserv (client|server interface), other-window|other-frame (extra windows/viewports) and the calendar|diary fulltime.
