Is that still the case? another vote for SciTE! it helped get me motivated to start programming when i was still weary of the linux command line. the syntax highlighting is decent, and the ability to run programs with a button push is a huge plus. only downside i can see is that the "gets" command so common in early programs doesn't work with SciTE. the license is open source - and while it's an older program it seems that it is still actively developed. -j -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
