I wish MS bought this, fixed the few minor bugs and put some Glass to it. Call it a new Notepad.

The only thing I found useful in gedit over notepad was the color highlighting.  I would be most interested in PHP highlighting followed by HTML, CSS and javascript.  I might also be interested in VB highlighting if I ever have to update any of my old programs.

writing a new notepad was my first C++ project in highschool.  i wish i still had the source.  i've lost all C++ skill since then.  sad, really.  i can make so much more money w/ that rather than VB.NET.

Guys, check out editplus at http://www.editplus.com

Regarding the code colouring features, it is very much extensible and very user friendly. I use it for lots of common tasks myself Smiley

I think the only features which notepad needs to is Auto Indent, and ability to setting tab stops, if they don't want to add syntax highlighting to it.
