What non-IDE tekst editor do you use?
(Graphical) IDE's are great for development, but they're slow to start and heavy to run. Sometimes you just want to take a quick look at an xml or dockerfile and you don't want to spin up the whole IDE for that.
I've recently rediscovered notepad++ for that (on windows), what's your prefered easy-acces-tekst-editor?

vim on any *nix box, Notepad++ when forced to use Windows.
Vim is cross platform, just in case you don't know
Hadn't looked into that for a long time, will try. I think the biggest hurdle for me might be native Windows terminals still being shit.
Yeah absolutely. I only use the graphical version (gvim) on Windows.
It's the best solution for editing huge text files in Windows. The other text editors slow to a crawl with big files, but gvim has no problem.
