    UltraEdit is good.

    I am using Notepad++ as well since it helps ensuring that correct number of closed parenthesis are used.  Not sure if UltraEdit has that capability.  I was wondering if there's a text editor out there that recognizes Skill keywords, and as such highlights (the keywords) for easy readability.

    UltraEdit can do syntax highlight, brace match, list procedures in a open file and, with a c-tag config file, can find all the procedures(and defun) in a project that will allow you to jump to a procedure in any file by putting the cursor on a procedure name and hitting the F12 key.
