Hi
I've not noticed anyone mention vimtutor which might be helpful.
On a Mac or Linux system, from the command line simply type "vimtutor"
and with in 1/2 to 1 hour you'll know enough to use vim _and_ be in a
position to decide if it's the editor for you. I've been told vim can

Several have already been mentioned.
vim and emacs are the standards.
Geany is popular on Linux but also available on Windows/MacOSX
Jedit hasn't had a shout yet but does work cross platfor

I teach an introductory programming course to medical students (and a few
doctors).
I would look at Sublime Text 2 if one Windows/ Mac. Has a 'nag' screen to
