Having read all the previous posts in this thread it seems to have come
full circle so probaly best that I put my 2p worth in now.  

Emacs looks complicated and will take some getting used to at first, with
setting up the .emacs file and so on, but it's well worth the effort, 
"No pain, No gain". 

I've just installed DJGPP (GCC for windows), on a Win95 machine and was 
really amazed to find that the shareware editor that comes with it 
actually has syntax highlighting. 

So give emacs a go, and don't be affraid to ask for help, we've all been
there too.
