Roman,
I really don't use Netscape with or for anything that
requires text editing. But to make a blanket statement, I
use MicroEMACS for everything. As Civileme pointed out,
other editors are probably far better suited to larger
projects, but I probably won't ever use anything else unless
I'm forced to :-)
