For simple text editing use Scite (Scintilla text editor)... I use this on both Windows and Linux. It has text highlighting for just about every programing / scripting language, so I find it very useful for C++ and PHP development...

I need to look at this when I have time. I installed it but I cannot find it in the menu. Guess you need to work with it in the terminal? The road less traveled is not always easier.

Jip, it is commandline. The documentation is pretty good, so you shouldn't have any problems. You can google for a gui frontend, but most of those projects seems to have died off.
