Re: [PLUG] pls recommend a text editor

I've been using JEdit and it works quite well for my needs.  It is
multi-platform as it's written in Java.  I've run it on Windows and Linux  There
are a lot of plugins for it as well.  In addition, it has a feature I dearly
love:  highlight one or more lines and use ctr-Left_Arrow / ctrl-Right_Arrow to
un-indent / indent those lines.  For a layout fanatic like myself it's extremely
handy.

It has tabs and the ftp/sftp plugin allows remote editing easily.

Oh, did I mention it's free?
