Screen Shot:
Normally, editors like this are very common and there's not much to distinguish them. But if you work with fielded data (using field separators, like CSV files) or with fixed-width fields, the average editor isn't much good there. When I paged through the screen shots, this one stopped me cold, since it's an innovative editor that also handles data files like this. This makes it worth looking into. (EricPement)
