Reuben Grinberg napsal(a):
Vi/ vim and emacs are great editors for programmers that have the time to learn all their functionality. However, the learning curve for both of these editors is steep. They are extremely different from anything most students are familiar with (namely Microsoft Word, Notepad, Text Areas in web apps, etc...) It's especially disturbing when you open one of these for the first time and can't seem to quit! I mean, ESC-:q and C-x C-c – pretty intuitive, huh?
Nedit is a pretty good editor (http://www.nedit.org/) in several respects. It has syntax hilighting for many programming languages, uses the mouse and arrow keys, has menus, and uses familiar keyboard shortcuts such as Control-C (copy) Control-V (paste), Control-X (cut), ^S (save), ^O (open), ^W (close), ^Q (quit), ^P (print), etc... There's basically no learning curve at all, but there are lots of advanced features that are easy to get to.
The downside is that it's not straight-forward to install on non-linux machines (on most linux machines, just type nedit into a terminal and it should launch. On Windows, it can be installed using Cygwin. Nedit has a native binary for OS X and it can also be installed using Fink.
My 2 cents, Reuben Grinberg
P.S. I'm a 4th year CS major at Yale. For the record, I use emacs, pico, nedit, and xcode to do most of my coding. Every once in a while I'll use Eclipse for a project, but I find it really annoying to set up.

What attributes are needed in a "for children" editor? (or is a list of attributes what you are looking for?)
Not really. I taught the after school club emacs, which meant we spent a lot
of time 'learnng how to use the editor'. They were bright, heavily motivated,
and what was best, _only 5 of them_. And they got there by being very curious
what I was doing to present stuff to them. But the next proposed summer lot
will be a group of 30, and I don't think I will have enough individual
instruction time. So I wonder if there is an editor they are likely to
know -- perhaps unsurprisingly, most kids I know use Microsoft Word to
edit things, and that's a _rotten_ editor for programming -- of if there
is one that is known for the speed at which it is learnt.
