I'm looking for feedback about including a small lightweight editor
with the TortoiseHg Windows installer that we can set as the default
visual editor.   The main reason for this is notepad.exe cannot read
unix eoln files, and it would be nice if our default editor handled
unicode and had at least some simple syntax highlighting.

The two obvious candidates are Notepad2 and Notepad++, both are free software.

My initial impression is that Notepad2 is the better choice for our
purposes, as it's completely self-contained in a 1.4MB executable
file.

Notepad++ would require packaging all of it's support directories.

Thoughts?
