I've programmed with Geany before (which is pretty good) but I wanted to learn a standard editor (vi or emacs; and I don't like modal for text editing). Didn't want the bloated GNU emacs so I tried mg, uemacs-pk and qemacs. Both mg and qemacs are good, I think, but syntax highlighting is really a plus of qemacs.
