Well, I didn't like it. Never felt productive in it. It felt very awkward. The only reason I was using it was the support of non-mainstream languages.

Even when I was full-time in Linux, my go to IDE was KDevelop. And mcedit for simple text editing.

While my most often used local editor is emacs by far (and zile remotely), I also tend to use Visual Studio as simple text editor on windows. Some kind of Visual Studio shell is installed on almost any windows machine I need to use (be it Visual Studio proper, AvrStudio or something like that) and in contrast to notepad it does not have problem with LF newlines.
