Have you tried FED by Shaw Hargreaves? It's really cool and has some 
special feature that makes life easier sometimes (esp. with large 
sources) - it can fold text in files. BTW. Shawn, are you going to 
recompile the editor so that it will support LFNs?

Another editor (and much, much more than just an editor) is Emacs - 
one of the most powerful tools. Go for it.

Midnight sun bids moors farewell, retreats from charging dusk,
Mountains echo, curfews bell, signal ending tasks.
They place their faith in oaken doors, cover in candle light
The panic seeps through bloodstained floors
