Coda
There are a TON of different text editors out there, everything from Windows’ NOTEPAD.EXE to BBEdit to Coda. BBEdit is great as far as simple text editors go, but it lacks specialization. While it does have autocorrect features, Coda has a comprehensive CSS editor as well as the autocorrect. It also has an organizational feature which, a lot like Dreamweaver, but what Coda has over Dreamweaver is that it is simple, uncluttered, and easy to figure out.
So give Coda a shot if you want to build your alternative suite of tools.

I agree. Coda is definitely something to check out. I use BBEdit and have payed for this text editing software but Coda offers a ton more and for FREE and I like free.

Coda isn’t free… o_O
Coda is my choice for OS X. However, if I’m only doing a small change, (or dealing with an SQL file) I tend to fire up BBEdit because it’s super light.
Anyhow my current choice for a text editor in Windows is Notepad++. Definitely super powerful for something that costs $0. And is expandable with a huge amount of plugins!

Yes, I’ve used that before on the PC. I had a friend who used to do his ASCII art on that too.
