It may be getting a bit long in the tooth, but I still really like nedit (found on SourceForge, originally developed at FermiLab). Good context-sensitive editing, user macros, powerful regex search and replace across multiple documents, etc. It's a lot lighter weight than emacs, as well as easier to learn. It runs on just about every platform known to personkind, including Windoze and QNX.
