A while back all the 'pro / real' programmers showed the notepad icon or 'made with notepad' on their website... This has phased out?

Do you still use notepad, or what other program do you use?

I use dreamweaver, simply because of the beautiful colours.

I still use notepad, though mostly now it's for just quick snippets of code in either Lingo or C#. I use Dreamweaver for my web coding now a days just because it's what I've been teaching and I've gotten used to the colour coded code

I tell my students that I expect them to be able to code me something in notepad just as well as they do in Dreamweaver. Too many of them fall into the trap of Dreamweaver's Design View and start asking questions that could easily be solved if they just looked at the code.

One reason I like Dreamweaver is because they are working in conjunction with the W3C WASP to make their "out of the box" code more compliant with the W3C recommendations.

I use notepad, mainly for the fact that it's fast and easy to use, but then again I don't get the syntax colours. I do like dreamweaver though, the UI is great.

I don't use Notepad much anymore, but I don't use Dreamweaver at all either. I hate those editors with wysiwyg and auto-suggestion features in it because they sometimes add things I don't want added.

I use UltraEdit32, mainly just because it supports many more encodings (utf, anci, iso-xx) than notepad and that it highlights the syntax for me.

Yeah Dreamweaver 8 is great and helpful. Although coding in notepad isn't that bad, but dreamweaver 8 is so pretty

Notepad++ has to be the simplest, yet most useful program I've user used.
