A great Text Editor and a good alternative to Notepad++

Edit+ is a great text editor and a good alternative to Notepad++. I use Edit+ as a normal text editor (instead of Notepad) and I also use it to write scripts (shell or python scripts mostly). It is very lightweight and has some level of customization available. It can open large files without lagging which is a plus. It also supports multiple languages, has syntax highlighting, and also tells about syntax errors in the programs I write.
