I'm interested in, what editor/IDE did you (all, not only John) use before you got know of Geany?
UltraEdit was great, which I used on “that other OS”...
At work it's Jedit for me - lots of good plugins, and a nifty plugin manager. It starts up slow, though.
On Linux it was mainly Kate, which is really good BUT has lots of KDE dependencies. I tried emacs and found out why people call it an OS, not an editor :O) I also tried gvim, which I think is one of those things that are awesome if you grew up with it, but should not even bother otherwise because it will you take you *ages* to get as productive as with standard editors, which is frustrating. (what the ...? i have to figure out how to get to edit mode before i can even type a letter? :)
