For many web designers Notepad is where it all begins. The great thing about HTML is that you don't need any special software to create a great page. And Notepad comes free on every Windows machine. It's easy to create a website with Notepad. Have you ever created a website or web page with Notepad?

There’s a text editor called notepad++ that does small things to help code be written more quickly, like color coding different elements of your code. It’s awesome!
Same here Chris, i used Notepad for years, but for the last 2 years or so i use ++. One of the great things about it, is looking at a site built by someone else, and wondering where a certain div ends – easy!!
Pete.
I totally agree. That’s my text editor of choice nowadays. Lots of great options, including macros, views, find in all files, and off course the color coding which is a real help.
As chris said, Notepad ++ is a good replacement for notepad… if you are stuck with Windows.
Running vim on a linux-based testing server through a ssh terminal, however, beats out every other approach I have tried
Yes, but Notepad++.
