I come directly from UE to use this nice editor (UE doesn't recognize any 0 (zeros) as input characters and I don't know why *lol*)
I have some questions to features of the editor:
the first one is that I am missing a quick search-field (drop-down box) under the menue-"line" of the editor. This Func I know from UE, Keil µVision, Kile (latex) and many other editors and it's very useful.
The second is a problem...
I think it will be better to make two menue-entrys for commenting and decommenting code.
When you have (vhdl)
-- stop writing
--address <= "0000000";
address <= (others => '0');
--datain <= "000000000000";
datain <= (others => '0');
we <= '0';
wait until rising_edge(clock);
and you wand to comment the whole block out, you comment the code and de-comment the commented code :-)
And it would be nice to create key-shortcuts (defineble) for thet, for example strg-alt x/v (like strg-x/v).
The problem with editors is, that it's hard to find one that has all the features I want to have. Most editors have a few features I want, and many others I don't need ;-)
Notepad++ seems to have most of the features I want to have, thats why I am using it now :-)
What I miss is automatic code (or word) completion, but I already found that it will slow down the editor too much (why? UE, Kile, eclipse, ... can do this).

and what about the search field (drop down) ?
I think this feature could be as easy to implement as two entrys for de- / comment *smile*
--> thar notepad++ becomes the greatest editor ever :-)
Greetings,
/th.
for autocompletion try ctrl+shift+space
for the comment behaviour I agree and share your problems
