When we start thinking of text editor , Windows fans think of notepad
and linux fans Vi editor.

VI editor is much more powerful tool and there is no comparison of notepad and VI.
But VI is difficult to learn.

Somebody said rightly about VI ,

     "Vi is like a Ferrari, if you're a beginner, it handles like
a bitch, but once you get the hang of it, it's small, powerful and FAST!"


What about VI with GUI ? that's gVIM !
    "Vim is an advanced text editor that seeks to provide the power of
the de-facto Unix editor 'Vi',
with a more complete featureset. " -- Official VIM site .

You can downlaod VIM from http://www.vim.org/download.php
(Yes , It also has its Windows version )

Trust me VIM is great text editor with syntax highlighting features .
You can use VIM for writing your "C" code or PHP code or other stuff like writing
some article for as i am doing now!
