Cool Tools - jEdit

Third in my occasional series on cool cross-platform tools is jEdit, a deliciously full-featured source-code and text editor - HTML and XML support are particularly strong. It includes folding, macros, syntax support and plug-in support, and the plug-ins offer a wide range of features including CVS, SourceSafe and Clear Case access.

It will be familiar to many Java programmers as it's been around for five years, but those on other platforms may well value having a full-strength editor that is identical on all the platforms they work on. Highly recommended for people who don't need a 'paper metaphor' for their text editor.
