   @HeilNizar: There are many editors out there much better than the NotePad++ though UltraEdit is definitely not one of them.
   
   UE not only is bloated, unreliable, slow and buggy but also suffers from a number of very serious encoding issues especially when using Unicode / UTF8. I've lost days of work in the past due to all these issues.
   
   On the contrary, editors with full Uniscribe support like EmEditor and EditPlus as well as a few others like HippoEdit or AkelPad work great with Unicode, are light in resource usage and disk footprint and perform faster and much more stable than this junk.

   Simply:
   1. Too big;
   2. Too bloaty; and
   3. Too expensive.
   
   Try something Like:
   1. EditPlus (http://www.editplus.com/index.html) or
   2. TwistPad (http://www.carthagosoft.net/)
   
   Both are full featured, light load on your system and relatively cheap.

   UltraEdit used to be my favorite programmers editor for years; but not any more. I cannot stand any more the bloat, the slowness and all those silly bugs.

   Eaves I have to agree with you. I'm still using 11.20b and it's fast! The search option to list lines containing text which opens a separate window is one of my favorite features! But seriously, ten seconds to load on a 3GHz machine?!?
   Is this thing written in Java?
