I generally use Win32Pad (an improved Notepad replacement) on Windows, 
and whatever text editor comes as standard with the Linux I'm using at 
the time; even vi if all I have is a command line. I work in three 
languages at the same time on a project I'm currently doing (PHP, Perl 
and Ruby, not to mention HTML/CSS/JavaScript) so it helps to use the 
same text editor for all. Personally I've never seen much point in 
syntax highlighting.

If you keep your data in text files rather than a database or whatever, 
you can use the same editor for them as well!
