The only things I can think of that would make it any different from a text editor is Syntax Highlighting, and maybe calling Lua to execute the script. Unless there was some sort of real-time syntax error checking, that would probably be rather difficult to program.

If you want to for the sake of experience, go for it...Otherwise, one such as notepad++ is more than sufficient.

Notepad++ is what our team uses. It would be kinda cool for it to do things like syntax checking or even put the luac compiler in there too, but it's meant to be a general purpose text editor with syntax highlighting for multiple languages.
