Another viable option is SciTe. It's a nice windows GUI text editor which is a
single file - no install required. Drop it anywhere in the path and it just
works.

Haven't used atom under Windows, but have been impressed under OS X. Not
relevant to this thread but the remote pair programming plugin is lovely.

We told participants in today's workshop to say 'notepad' when 'nano' fails.
A better solution would certainly we welcomed by many.
