   You actually prefer no color syntax highlighting
or "intellisense"? I got used to the VB6 editor and
then wrote my own for HTML, VBS, etc. It's *so*
much easier than Notepad. The colorcoding makes
it much more readable, once you're used to the
colors. Auto-correcting case and coloring of
variables prevents me from misspelling variables
because a variable name typed wrong is obvious
when I go to the next line.
  Intellisense popup means I don't have to remember
object properties.

  It's similar for HTML. The code becomes much
more clear when tags, comments, script blocks
and CSS are different colors.

  I don't want to force you to use a shovel if you're
happy farming with a trowel. :) But if anyone here
wants a copy of my software you can have it for
free. I don't sell many copies anymore. There are
too many freebies. Just download, install and try
it. If you like it, write and ask me for the full version.
(And let me know who you are in the group. I'm
not giving it away to the public.)

  There's also a javascript editor in the same program,
but it's not as polished as the VBS and HTML editors.
I find javascript ugly and tedious, so I've never learned
more than the basics. The javascript editor may sometimes
have some syntax highlighting errors with extremely
complex javascript, like the jquery stuff one sees in
webpages these days.
