Cool thing about Textpad is the extendable Tools menu. I used to use it and added the commandline call to javac so it served as a rudimentary IDE till I got more interested in Eclipse (and eclipse got better). I now prefer EditPlus2 for my text editing for the following features:
- search for string in open files
- search for string in closed files in folder (and sub folders)
- find and replace against all open files
- button bar for each open file.
Eclipse 3 - too many power plug-ins these days not to have a working setup handy. Javascript, c#, Ruby...
If you like scanEZ, Jake, you should try out actionBarEZ. Any time I have more than a couple of action bars to configure, this thing saves stupid amounts of time and errors.
#develop - free .net IDE that does everything the full (not express) version of Visual Studio does - or at least as much of the later as I need in the former. Really handy for playing with COM or cranking out a quick .dll or VB GUI app.
