I use NTEmacs. My flavor of (Con)TeX(t) comes on the TeXLive CD that also
has NTEmacs, so I can install the editor at the same time with the rest of
the system. This far I've managed to fairly successfully use the
combination in Windows NT, Windows 2000 and Windows XP (otherwise perfect,
getting fonts to work takes some time - now I have a cheat sheet for this,
if needed).

NTEmacs turns ConTeXt compatible with Berend Boer's ConTeXt mode, see
<http://www.berendboer.net/emacs/>. With the changes suggested by Berend's
ConTeXt readme (except it still has a typo in it... my .emacs is available
at request), I can do all my ConTeXt work in NTEmacs, including pdf
compilation and viewing.

I'd assume that NTEmacs with its reasonably good mouse compatibility and
everything would be fairly suitable even to a Windows person, assuming
(s)he knows what an editor is for (>< not word processor).

I might add here, that I first tried WinEdt, but its ConTeXt compatibility
wasn't very good at the point (over a year back), so I opted for Emacs
instead, having been an Emacs person earlier, albeit in Unix.


Cheers,
