I'm not trying to nitpick, but you need to close your <li> tags ;)

It should look like this:

Code: Select all

<ol>
      <li>something</li>
      <li>something</li>
      <li>something</li>
</ol>
But yeah, I learned about Notepad++ on these forums. I use it for Lua and material scripts.

This is my editor of choice. It's free, it's not clunky, it's perfect in my opinion. :bow:

I use SciTe http://www.scintilla.org/ just because it's the first editor I ever used and I'm too lazy to compare others. I write my C++ code right inside Code::Blocks though. No need for another editor.

Oh for the past 3 days I thought you meant that you useperl and lua as a text editor :lol:. I googled them both today and i found out they were languages not text editors.
