I have, personally, never really had that much motivation...
notepad is simple, effective, and edits text files.
I can jump to line numbers, I can search for things, ...
about the only thing it really lacks IMO is a better search-and-replace
feature (so that I don't end up resorting to things like sed, ...). but,
only very rarely is this an issue...
when it comes to C, really, I am not sure what would be added that would
really help all that much...
also note that, often, I have anywhere from 10 to 50 notepad's open at
once,
and this was one thing that was a major problem in Vista: it setting a
critically low limit on the number of open windows I could have open
before
stuff went weird...
