Back when I was still on Window$ I used Notepad++ for programming (and still used it via WINE when I was on Linux Mint). Then I learned how to use Vim and just started using that. I forgot if I tried any other text editors in between that, but all I know is that I stuck with Vim. I don't really care much about the fact I use Vim specifically, either. I'd probably be using Nano if I stuck onto that first.
I am some dude. A semi-nomad of Teh Internetz. A rascal, if you will.
