I'm using currently notepad++ for my Windows assembly language projects. Does anyone know another alternative editor with syntax highlighting etc?

You have to know the facts before you can distort them.

I use RadAsm3 for most of my editing (PowerBASIC, BCX, UBX, JWasm, Masm, gcc, g++ .....)

I use SciTE for almost everything.

Well Microsoft, here's another nice mess you've gotten us into.

Mike,

Good hint, the language schemes (including TEX) are impressive. On the other hand, it should also work under Linux. I think, I'll give it a try.

vim is also a good choice. It supports several assembler syntax like MASM, FASM, NASM, etc. And it's runnable as Windows or console app.

Yes, the famous vi. Although the handling is a bit cryptic, there are some authors, which have written entire book manuscripts with the vi.

Hallo Gunther,

Hast Du jemals einen Blick auf RichMasm geworfen - im MasmBasic-Package? Ich benutze nichts anderes, u.a. weil ich die individuelle Formatierung brauche...

I use SciTE for all my text editing. It has code highlighting for about every language and an output pane for debugging. Presently I'm working on user calltip settings for MASM, as I'm not yet proficient at remembering the meaning of a lot of even basic asm keywords. I would also like to add in some html based context sensitive MASM help, fairly easily done with SciTE. If done you could just put the cursor on the key word and hit F1 and it takes you to a page specific to that key word with examples and all. You can also configure any number of hotkeys to call up any number of existing help files in the SDK and/or web resources, local or otherwise. It also has macro capabilities. So you can type in a keyword and hit the macro function hotkeys and it'll replace your key word with as complex a macro as you want to define for it.

Yes, I've checked it. SciTE is impressive. Thank you for the hint.

No, not really. They're using wordstar.  :greenclp:
