+1 on QEdit back in the day. They are still around. It was from Semware http://www.semware.com/
They now call it now The Semware Editor (TSE), the Junior version is what used to be called QEdit. They also have a pro version. I still have it, but must confess I don't use it so much anymore. Now notepad++ or PsPad or Eclipse Vim that someone mentioned brings back memories. I liked being able to delete or copy a few lines without having to mark them first.
