[ale] OS Windows text editor for Unix files

[Jay Loden]

Just in case you didn't find something you like already, I recommend two 
choices.  If you are looking for basically notepad, but with the ability to 
read Unix files and show line numbers, I recommend Win32Pad - written in 
straight C with the Win32 API, fast, solid, small, and great.

If you want a solid text editor with TONS of programmer friendly features 
(honestly, I've always wished it ran on Linux, I like it that much) and, of 
course, the ability to read those Unix files, check out Crimson Editor 
http://crimsoneditor.com/

Since I didn't see anyone else recommending them, I thought I'd toss them into 
the mix.  PFE is really good, but Win32Pad or Crimson Editor are at least 
equal to it, and they're still actively developed and supported.  Both 
editors I mentioned are free programs.
